Great things from today's Washington Post, relayed by NextDraft:

-- Chinese graduate students who were part of Dubya's question-and-answer session in Beijing made some incisive and unflattering observations about America's leader-by-default. "He wants people to understand the United States but I don't think he understands us," said one. "You can't have one without the other." Another student was even less impressed: "He just kept talking and talking about freedom. We get it. Does he think we're stupid?"

-- "'Enron' was a made-up name picked for the new company created out of the merger of Internorth and HNG in 1986. Naming consultants originally came up with 'Enteron,' but -- hours before it was to be made public -- an employee of the combined companies consulted a medical dictionary and discovered that 'enteron' is another name for the intestines."
