Mesquito Masquerade
Alien mesquitos prowl amongst the unsuspecting folk out here in Shanghai. Closing in on the third week here and I've had about two dozen attacks. My bites look like someone hit me with a baseball bat. Really hard.
On the brighter side, the California West Nile website has issued warnings about infected mesquitos travelling up and down various populated areas. Prevention includes draining excess water, applying DEET, and covering yourself with clothing. Lavender oil, tee tree oil, and eucalyptus oil are amongst some natural repellents for the blood suckers. Go California, get them happy blood suckers!

on a less economic oriented side of the conversation, thought you might like to check this out.
And I would like to point out that Garfield was right, Mondays are the shittiest days
