Back in June of last year, I mentioned that I had found a souvenir in Washington DC... a keychain with a countdown timer to George W Bush's departure from office.
Tragedy of tragedies, I checked it today only to find its little LCD completely blank. It seems it had run out even before George. Strange, I thought... I had expected something American to have more staying power. On inspection, though, I found that its manufacture had been outsourced to China.
I'd better stop there... I don't think this post can cope with any more allegorical layers.
