Is my browser malfunctioning or is there a picture of a manbaby holding a babyman by the ocean behind the text. Please disregard if this is a figment of my imagination.

Some China firms outsourcing to USA to cut costs

May 7, 2008 7:23pm

Well, with the dollar so weak it stands to reason that foreign firms would invest in the States. Our infrastructure is advanced and reliable, and is within one of the largest target markets in the entire world. This really isn't that surprising. The question is, will it last? As US inflation builds up a head of steam (because the Fed is ignoring inflation to deal with the sub-prime fallout) it's slowly going to penetrate to the rest of the worlds currency, and historically, people have turned to the dollar as inflation rises. And this might cause the dollar to increase it's value again. At least thats my perspective.

Mysterious "Full-Automatic Mahjong Table"

May 7, 2008 7:13pm

Finally, a personal mystery has been solved! A while back, while bored at work, a co-worker and I used googles to search for unsecured web cams. We came up with one fully controllable cam in China which displayed a bunch of Chinese men in a room, sitting cryptically around these strange tables. We couldn't figure out what was going on, although we had many strange theories. Apparently, the tables were "fully automatic Mahjong tables". Thanks boingboing.
