Some late Irish observations

Walking back from town just now, I just noticed for the first time that one of my neighbors' mailbox has "NO JUNK MAIL" painted in neat, hand-painted letters above the slot. I wonder if that works. Is it really that simple over here?

Also, on a less light-hearted note, I've been meaning to post this up for a while...

It's a pretty shocking example of the different public mentality over here regarding censorship in the media. This is an actual commercial/PSA that's been running frequently on TV during prime time over here. WARNING... It is very graphic and disturbing:



Far more graphic than any anti-drunk-driving campaign you'd see on TV in the States, and it's just for speeding.
