Everything Mao!
I swear, Mao Tse Tung is gradually sticking his ghostly nose into every facet of my life. So far, just in the past 24 hours:
- the jokes cracked in a particular online community about a “cordial revolution” (signing letters with “Cordially” in defiance of company policy) which led to a half-baked idea about making little liqueur-filled chocolates shaped like Mao’s head and packaging them in boxes shaped like little red books
- the erroneous search on my employer’s Intranet portal for “www.maoquest.com” (which does exist but which SHOULD NOT BE VISITED, especially by IE users)
- the article in yesterday’s New York Times about how Mao is still revered in rural China (link here that won’t last long, don’t forget to use BugMeNot)
Creeeeeeepy.
