Around the World in the Year of the Rabbit?ðððððð°
Seeing that spy balloon shot down in the news reminded me of Jules Verne's novel 'Around the World in 80 Days' but I found a more apt movie version that was very loosely based on the book starring the Three Stooges which was released one complete cycle of the Rabbit, or 60 years ago in 1963, the Year of the Rabbit, called 'The Three Stooges Go Around the World in a Daze':-)
There is one scene where the Stooges get caught by the Chinese and accused of spying and the Chinese try brainwashing them only to have the tables turned on them by the Stooges.
There seems to be Stooges in high places everywhere in politics around the world in 2023:-)

I still have 'The Idiot', 'War and Peace', 'Middlemarch' and 'The Devils' to read before I get to 'Around the World in Eighty Days', so there's a goal to reach before I die -
