Kooky Countries

I just found this article just downright bizarre. How do leaders, or anyone, become this strange? The naming months of the calendar after family members really brings me a few giggles. I guess Turkmenistan will have to be crossed off my possible future vacation spots list.

Today's big news in the Post Express was that he banned karaoke. Im not sure why that was a bigger piece of news than his renaming the months after his relatives.

"Yes, my party will be on the first day of Robert. If you could RSVP by the 23rd of Gertrude, I'd appreciate it."

What would the Japanese think of the karaoke banning? I'm sure these two countries are no longer on speaking terms.
