When mechanics change tires why do they insist on doing up the wheel nuts with a machine so that there's no way an unassisted human can get the fuckers off? Nothing to make you feel particularly woosy like having to call RACV roadside assistance to change a tire.

(Yeah, I tried the WD40 on the wheelnuts to loosen them - no go.)

Feeling very seedy and generally hungover anyway today, so this makes me feel so much better. Wah.

No, I'm not being sarcastic here. The Grameen Bank and it's founder Muhammad Yunus were recognised with the Nobel Peace Prize. It's a nice reminder that while a lot of the things in the world seem insane and broken, some people are working with the world as it is, and making the world a better place.
