"Attorney General John D. Ashcroft yesterday urged nations...to fight
corruption, which is costing the world economy more than $2 trillion
every year." "Follow our moral lead," Ashcroft said. "Surely in your
own country you have a highly visible woman who is resented for her
success. I urge you to go after her with the full power of the law.
And God bless America."...

You know, I hate
wrestling. It personifies everything I
hate about the American culture: admiration of abundant violence,
conflict, strength - the "bigger is better" -syndrome, the
fact that it is scripted but still some people believe it's all
true... It reminds me so much of the ideas of the Roman gladiators -
and the analogue to ancient Rome is also evident in some other ways
that I do not go here. I've tried to watch WWE, and I've tried to
understand it (and big thanks to those who helped me on this task),
but no: that is something that I do not see worth understanding.
But today, I was introduced to Lucha Libre, the Mexican version of
wrestling, where putting up a good show is far more important than
winning. It has much more joy of pure movement and acrobatics, and in
ways it reminded me of kung fu movies or a circus act. I'm sure that
if I understood any Spanish, the dialogue would be as burlesque as in
its American counterpart, but there frankly isn't too far of it.
There was humour, wit, even affection in the show. The outrageous
uniforms and masks (which have a lot of importance: once you lose your
mask, you can never wear it again), and even the entrances are far
more important than the action. This is not to say that there's no
action; in fact, there's a lot more action than you might think: most
matches are three-on-three, which guarantees a constant, breathtaking
pace of mayhem. Action does not stop, even when the round is over - in
fact, the beginning and the end of a round seem to be superfluous
concepts, only there for some obscure purpose of scorekeeping.
It was fun. Certainly a fresh, refreshing, and new acquaintance.

Timoshenko (her personal website) is the
new premier of Ukraine (
bio). She is
the hippest politician I've ever laid my eyes on. Here is a
picture of her giving a speech to
the Ukrainian parliament when it approved her nomination to the
premiership. Here's another
picture of her being insufferably
hip. Russia
has issued an international arrest warrant for her
through Interpol, but who cares when she's
this cool? Don't you wish you had politicians who
dressed like that? Strike that. Don't you wish you had politicians who
could dress like that?
