Olympics bring no joy for Tibetan monks 1 day ago | Tibetan Uprising

“We can’t get email until October after the Olympics,” said one monk out of earshot of the mainly Han Chinese tour groups.

“The Olympics?” said another monk.

“We wouldn’t be able to go and watch them as the train station will not sell us any train tickets, so I don’t really care.”

You’re kidding me, right? These “new-fangled” milk jugs cost less all around and people can’t figure them out? Wake up, America. Pouring milk with a “rock-and-pour instead of a lift-and-tip” is the LEAST of your worries. Figure it out.

Oh, and kudos to the NYT for pointing out all of the issues with the new jugs. I mean, you give people brains and opposable thumbs, what do you expect?
