Still Flu-ey

Some news of the world that leave me happy that I am hidden away under some nice warm covers simpering about how it hurts to laugh and to cough.

• Large Candy Cane Used To Beat Threatening Neighbor [boingboing]
• Wal-Mart worker dies after shoppers knock him down [AP]
• Wake Up Frankie via boingboing via contexts

I mean, just in case the last election was giving you the deluded notion that the world had suddenly become sane or something.

Getting caught up on lots of backlogged bloggy news.
