Fair warnings

I really like this page from the website of some dude named Tom Scott. Here are just two of the plenty newspaper warning stickers on offer.

You can download all the stickers on Tom's page, too. He's put a handy-dandy PDF together, yours for free. Go visit.

You know it's a slow news day in LatAm finances when......

......a Bloomberg Brazil journalist writes 1,158 words on the plastic surgery that Venezuelan beauty queens go through to win their crowns. Link here (if you dare).

Go on, keep telling me I should take Bloomberg LatAm seriously.

By the way, it's not a slow news day. Today is the Canuck deadline for 3q08 reports and a whole swathe of miners banging rocks down here will be handing in their performances. Just don't tell Bloomberg.
