October 26, 2012 by D. A. Wolf 10 Comments

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 […]
