Imagine my surprise when last evening on Anderson Cooper 360, one of my fave journalists put the final flourishes on his show by talking about getting “punched in the face” – to look younger. That is to say that Cooper’s Ridiculist described a Thai tradition which has recently made the news. It was the subject […]

September 19, 2012 by D. A. Wolf 21 Comments
