More Things to Worry About
The 500th anniversary of Japan's Saidaiji Eyo festival was Sunday, which meant 9,000 men in loincloths waited in darkness to fight over (and walk out with) two pieces of sacred wood (sorta like a pro-wrestling money-in-the-briefcase match). The Japan Times
In easier-to-explain festival news, Ms. Dani Sperle showed up for Carnival in Rio with only a 3cm-long covering on her hoo-hah, beating last year's 4cm-long patch. Associated Press via Yahoo
Undignified Death: A British nature-lover in her 40s, out walking in backwoods Devon, saw a feather she wanted, chased after it in the wind, and fell off a cliff. Daily Telegraph
Recurring Theme: The latest super-non-flight-risk is drug-defendant Stephen Turo, 56, arraigned in a courthouse parking lot in Syracuse, N.Y., where his 570-lb. self was toted in by U-Haul. Post-Standard
Update: News of the Weird reported on yoga gurus' trying to patent ancient positions and movements so their competitors couldn't use them [NOTW 842, 3-28-2004], but now there's a special Hindu legal unit in India fighting back, worldwide. (Bonus: On the books in the U.S. are 130 yoga patents, 150 copyrights, 2,300 trademarks.) Daily Telegraph (London)
That 11-yr-old Pennsylvania boy who blew away his dad's pregnant girlfriend Friday was charged as an adult (Companion Buried Lede: Though charged as an adult, he used what was described as a "20-gauge youth shotgun.") Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

9,000 men Girls! Serious butts. You Tube has more!
3cm Never mind, guys. No pictures!
570lbs Let's make sure we sentence this #$@$!$ to 20 years! We'll have to build a special prison for him, provide him with a dietitian and specially prepared foods (so as not to endanger his life by over feeding him), and provide all his health care but justice must be served.
11 year old The "youth shotgun", I'm sure, lured the lad out of his bed in the middle of the night, took control of his body, loaded itself using his hands, marched itself into her bed room with his feet.... well, you get the idea.

I just used Google Images with Dani Sperle's name and easily found dozens of photos of her gorgeous, mostly naked body.
Beware if you're at work!

On the surface you're correct, Edgar but the blurring of the line between adult and child is nothing new. I joined the Navy, on my own, when I was 18. Had I joined a week earlier I'd have had to had my parents' permission. Either way I was allowed to make a (possibly) life or death decision (Viet Nam) but couldn't buy a beer, vote, or enter into any other contract because I was 3 years too young.
