This week I came across the most disturbing piece of news that I think I have ever heard. In fact, it is so disgusting that I was compelled to pass it along to some of my closest friends and family. The link to the story is here. In case you are too lazy to click on the link, or perhaps the link has expired or is not working, let me summarize. The Chinese New Year is upon us which means for the Chinese people that they will all be doing what we were just doing at the end of December... traveling to our various homes and holiday plans. Many of us took airplanes, drove cars, some may have even taken the train. Well, if you are one of the unlucky souls in China this year- you may be taking the train which has been double booked. Not only will thsi train be crowded and awful, but the sale of adult diapers is on the rise, and it is suspected that this trend is owed to this special travel time. You will be squished in a crowded train car with people who you already don't want to be next to and will now be squishing up next to their diapers. Yes. This is the sickest thing I have heard. I may want to rethink my traveling list of places I want to go... which incidentally is (in order sort of):
Ireland
Prague
Russia
Austrailia/New Zealand
Prince Edward Island
Istanbul
Berlin
Iceland
Japan
Athens
Cairo
Portugal
Peru
Hong Kong
Argentina
Okay the list actually goes on and on....but notice China has been taken off.
