Now here's something truly scary


Forget horror movies, the Irish Economy is where it's at if you want to b e scared these days.

I came across this in my boredom today. It's a real-time counter for Ireland's debt. I find it truly terrifying.

Speaking of terrifying things- the NTMA have a website which details excellently how buggered the country is.

It even has a strange disclaimer before you enter the site, which reminded me of the health warnings that accompany cigarettes.

The above chart- also courtesy of the NTMA (via politics.ie) - is similarly scary.


This Hallowe'en, I'm dressing up as a statistic.
