A whole region of the world turned into one big psych ward.
That reminds me that the video of the Premier of Australia’s largest state New South Wales seen on Twitter this week is now on You Tube for how long????

What about that opposable thumb thing and those fingers which could have sharp nails on the ends. Shouldn't the government do something about those threats as well... Do I need a sarcasm tag?
