Monday morning roundup

Unemployment in South Africa is really bad.

Fareed Zakaria on Turkey and Brazil.

Here's the other thing about segway tours: do we not have an obesity crisis in this country? Can people not get off the motorized vehicles and walk? What a concept. Similarly, all you jackasses who misuse handicapped parking placards: we live in a city with decent public transportation. If you don't want to deal with the parking clusterf*, take the metro or bus.

Those of you who still haven't checked out Remy's metro song (posted a week or two ago), should. And let me tell you: just in the last few days, numerous people have pulled that idiotic thing where they barely walk into the train and then stop and think about which whey they're going to go, while a line of people behind them hopes to get on the same train.
