It's nakey time...

The world's greatest news story surfaced today. Farmers in India have asked their unmarried daughters to plow parched fields wearing nothing but their birthday suits in hopes it will embarrass the weather gods and bring some badly needed monsoon rains. Awkward......but hilarious (and hopefully successful).

On home soil, our PM has called for young people to accept whatever job they can get. While the economy smooths out its 'bumps' Gen Y is being told to be less snobby about work choices and be grateful for any job offer. Would you like fries with that?

Virgin Blue has hit it's own speed bump today when one of its planes lost a wheel while taxiing in Melbourne. A spokesperson has confirmed the aircraft has been fixed and the rest of the fleet checked for similar issues. According to the company it was 'fortunate' the incident occurred on the ground and not mid-flight which would have led to the loss of an aircraft. I would imagine happy hour prices will be quite lovely to Melbourne this week; although I would take a helmet should any freak wheels fly from the sky.

Unfortunately Russia has this week said no deal to anymore Kangaroo meat imports sparking concern about a jump in growth of skippy numbers. According to reports Russia took almost 70% of Australia's kangaroo meat exports and culling quotas will not longer be achievable.
