How should we judge a government?

In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X

Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain

Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham

"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan

And she thought he was her ex-classmate...

Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, 'Surely I can't look that old?' Well then, you might enjoy this!

My name is Alice Santer, and I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist.

I noticed his DDS Diploma, which bore his full name.

Suddenly, I remembered a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with the same name that had been in my high school class some 40-odd years ago.

Could he be the same guy?

Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This balding, gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate.

But after he examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended Morgan Park High School.

'Yes, yes, I did. I'm a Mustang.' He gleamed with pride.

'When did you graduate?' I asked.

He answered, 'In 1959. Why do you ask?'

'You were in my class!' I exclaimed.

He looked at me closely. Then, that Ugly, Old, Bald, Wrinkled, Fat, Gray-haired, Decrepit %^&&##$&& asked me, 'What did you teach?'
