On Death Penalties and Drugs

So, google news keeps bringing up articles on Nguyen Tuong Van, the drug smuggler who was hanged for trafficking drugs in Singapore.

I wanted to look into more information on it, and came across this article.

As much as I dislike the death penalty, it's quite apparent that Singapore doesn't want people trafficking drugs, and they mean business. It also seems that Nguyen isn't not guilty. He committed the crime.

I'm torn on this. I don't buy the fact that he needed to cover a 25k debt to save his drug addict brother and thereby decides to commit a crime in "We Cane You For Egging Cars" Singapore. I don't care how desperate you are, i'll take debtor's prison(assuming they have such a thing still) over doing anything illegal in Singapore.

And on the seventh day, she didn't rest

Today blew a little more than I anticipated. I had to work. I thought it would be only 4 hours. It was ten hours. Drat.


So, I've scheduled some time for a little snit.

Here goes:
snit

Oh well. Viva La Overtime.

shaunathan wants me to write down five of my weird habits.

Hmmm. Some of this may have been discussed already, but here it goes.

1)When my alarm chimes on a work day, I hear the alarm and then I turn on the tv so that the talking wakes me up. 'Tis a tough battle, because a cat will also cuddle me in the morning. If I drift off to sleep again, I'll dream of getting up and getting ready for work.
2)I hate when something is stuck in my teeth, so I will immediately floss, or if no floss is pressent, I'll use my nails if I have to.
3)I day dream in the shower. Perhaps it can be interpreted as "napping while standing". There's no such thing as a quick shower for me.
4)I have a habit of getting really upset at irrational choices.
5)Each night, when I go to bed, I watch the Daily Show, then turn to my right side and go to sleep. Turning on the left will not work. Promptly after I do that, Maximus crawls up beside me, licks my nose, and goes to sleep, himself.
