Evening Reading: Labor Day Edition
by Alice O'Connor, Sep 06, 2010 5:00pm PDTIt's been a quiet Labor [sic] Day here at Shacknews as the video games industry has mostly been out in the garden with a beer in one hand and a hotdog in the other, not to mention I've been working by myself. Still, I hope that whoever and wherever you are, you have come to appreciate the labouring classes a little bit more than you did before.
Me, I've been working hard all labour day so nobody appreciates long, hard slog better than me. Crumbs, what a gruelling day! I think I'll unwind by playing the PC version of Chime, which unlocked on Steam while I was writing this post. I already have the Xbox 360 edition but this'll make a fine addition to my netbook for travel fun.

So the five year old kid 'Mikael' won the contest and are now the next Lano kid. He will be on every Lano refiller in Norway. The article headline 'Hacker forum takes credit for Mikaels Lano victory' - referred to 4chan that supposedly is behind most of the votes. There's a screenshot of a recent 4chan thread that says 'We did it! Its all over the news!"
I think it's simply awesome that a kid with cerebral palsy has won a beauty contest. Remember, guys, It's the inner beauty that counts.
Here's a better picture of the gorgeous little heart breaker http://lano.no/
