Dead Bachelors

Passwords. They can be a helpful thing, keeping pesky snoopers out of your business, locking away those goodies from prying eyes. But what if you are the pesky snooper locked out of your own computer? When I was out of town, I experienced so many computer password snafus that I eventually gave up trying to post.

But I'm back. Last week the (shocker) NY Times ran an absolutely fascinating piece on Dead Bachelors in China. With ancestor worship so prevalent in that part of the world, it shouldn't be surprising that the same care and worry lavished on deceased relatives is applied to dead men of marrying age. But the good news is that in China, not even death can get in the way of finding one'e true love.
