I never have occasion to go on Yahoo normally, but on my netbook it’s set as the default homepage.  From the golden years of teh internets, I fondly remember Yahoo and AOL’s dominance, and their crushingly embarrassing news sections.  It seems little has changed from those arresting headlines of “Kitten goes for a swim” and “WARNING: VIRUSES”, as Yahoo deals with the big issue of the day and reports that a millionaire in northern China has paid four million yuan (600,000 dollars) for a dog and ordered 30 luxury cars to come to the airport to greet her and the animal.  Read more after the jump.

The woman and her new pet — a black Tibetan Mastiff — flew into Xi’an, capital of Shaanxi province, where convoy of 30 black Mercedes-Benz cars, led by two SUVs, drove to the airport Wednesday to pick up the pair, who had arrived from the Tibetan-populated province of Qinghai in China’s northwest.

The millionaire, who only gave her surname as Wang (oh come on), said she and a friend had spent a rong time searching for an original Tibetan mastiff.  A rery rong time.
