I thought my last month was really crazy... then I took a look at the news...

It includes pseudo-economic theories, Martha Stewartesque tips on how to live, heck I bet a speech on hamsters playing guitars would have been immortalized if it was delivered by the premier.

But the icing on the cake was a really juicy piece...
The deputy mayor of Delhi was killed by... wait for it....
