The Round-Up #12

Welcome to the Round-Up. Throughout the week, I tweet links to anything unique or funny that I find online, via DWG's Twitter feed, DownWithGT. Then, every week or two - typically on the weekend - I post the 3(ish) most unique or funny tweeted pages. So, without further ado, here, ladies and gentlemen, is the Round-Up #12





This is an article about how Belgium's lack of government. It's not really like the situation here in the US but it's interesting how limited is the role of Belgium's government anyway. It certainly appeals to the Libertarian in me.


And this explains how the American Dream has been perverted by peoples' desire for perfection. Can you be people "whose husbands will be power brokers, whose children will score 2,400 on their SATs and who will be playing competitive-level tennis, whose careers will be skyrocketing, whose fortunes will be growing?" No? Then there's rapidly becoming something wrong with you. (although I might add that you're not perfect unless you're happy and many of these people are too busy and stressed maintaining the facade of perfection to be happy)


And hey, take a break and play this puzzle game. Fun and addicting. You know you want to.
