Japan’s world-class transportation infrastructure couldn’t withstand this month’s 9.0-magnitutde quake, but their construction teams are still amazing. This stretch of highway was repaired in just six days by a Herculean road crew. This is the triumph of Japanese engineering.
A man walks into a store that specializes in trained monkeys. In amazement, the man walks to a corner and sees a monkey for sale for $5000.
“What does this monkey do?”, asks the man.
