Beware of Greeks Riding School Buses


This is Karen Klein and she has the worst job in the entire world.  She's a school bus monitor and you may have seen the video that went viral of some middle school shitheads taunting her during their ride on the school bus.

The little turds hail from Greece, New York which is allegedly somewhere near Rochester.

People who saw the video decided that the 68-year-old Klein deserves a vacation and so far $200,000 has been raised on her behalf.

If Ms. Klein is smart, she'll take the money and get as far away from that horrible place as possible.  Like maybe Bali.

Greece Fire Sale


So some Greeks decided to set fire to an Athens bank, possibly because there isn't any money in Greek banks any more, but more likely because they do not like being told they must take austerity steps. Three people inside the building were killed in the attack.
Prime Minister George Papandreou’s reforms, which aim to squeeze savings of 30 billion euros through 2012, include cuts to salaries in Greece’s sprawling public sector, higher taxes on alcohol and cigarettes, and tighter retirement rules. They are part of an effort to clear the way for a 110-billion euro rescue package aimed at preventing the debt-ridden country from defaulting, according to the NY Times.
It must be the higher taxes on ouzo and butts that's getting to them.
