He Could Have Started a Football Team...

It is said that behind every great man there is a woman. Well, in case of one corrupt Chinese official, behind him are ELEVEN very cheesed-off ones (story here). Sigh, a life-time of graft and corruption, ended by one mistress too many. Well, ten too many, but you have to admire his drive. Never got into collecting myself. It usually requires alot of dusting. Yuck.

Graft and mistresses seem to go hand in hand in Communist China. One former Party chief, in fact, was recently executed for blowing up his mistress because of her money grubbing behavior. Apparently he didn't have teenagers.

The corruption in government runs so deeply, that top officials are afraid that it could lead to and end to the Party's rule. Well every good party must come to an end sooner or later. But then there's always the next one.

I'll bring the dip.
