"Headlines"

4. (an ad) "Search and rescue dog: LOST"
3. (police blotter) "A $475 purse with food stamps was stolen from a Mercedes."
2. (a Realtor's ad slogan) "We'll show you houses while the owners are sleeping!"
1. (police blotter) "The suspect tried to get rid of the gun by throwing it in the river. ... He apparently forgot it was frozen."

The number 2 is scary, because I'm not sure it is a mistake.

Hey Ryan, it's Jamey Simpson.

Just now got a chance to catch up on your blog...love the post from November 21st. I laughed out loud at the first headline. For some reason it struck me funny. I guess for all those gerbil owners out there, it would be quite handy to have a pocket for their little pal.

Ryan, as I understand Chinese filtering, the government actual filters very little on it's own, but instead puts pressure on individual ISP to filter anything that *might* be objectionable. In that case, it's very possible one person can access the blog and someone across the street using a different ISP couldn't.
