Roundup: Can you cuddle a tortoise?


-The news is really cute this morning!!! A rare Egyptian tortoise was hatched in the Prague zoo over the weekend. He's 2.5 centimeters and has stubby little feet. I hope the scientists and zookeepers were all huddled around the teeny little egg as he slowly hatched his way out of there.

-The Association of Young Communists of Czechoslovakia are challenging the reconstitution of the Communist Youth Association. The former is the more radical of the two organizations, and the latter was recently allowed to regroup after being dissolved in 2006. Why can't we all just get along?!! Oh, because they're both a-holes.

-Speaking of assholes, somebody threw a Molotov cocktail through the window of a Romany family's home. It landed in a child's bedroom, but luckily the container didn't break, and therefore didn't explode. Last April arsonists attacked another Romany family home, and succeeded in causing a 2 year old to have 80 percent burns over her body. I'm going to quote Sean Penn and say that I hope the perpetrators "die screaming of rectal cancer."
