Boy Sold to Restaurant as Dog Meat

HANOI (Reuters) - Vietnamese drug addicts kidnapped a mute teenager, bundled him in a sack and sold him to a dog-meat eatery as a stray canine, state media said on Saturday.

The Gia Dinh Xa Hoi (Family and Society) newspaper said the two addicts grabbed the homeless 13-year-old from a busy market in Halong city.

At the Gucci store a few days ago I spotted an interesting product offering that is either new or had escaped my attention earlier: rolls of Gucci-logo wallpaper. I don’t object on the basis of appearance itself (I think wallpaper is coming back; rag on me in comments) but what does it say about someone when their entire room is basically an advertisement? How far is this from wearing a shirt with a small Gucci logo? What about shoes — you can usually tell who made the shoes if you’re observant, even from a few feet away. When does logoism become retarded?
