The Human Q-Tip

I recently read on Yahoo's front page that a man who is likely to become the next prime minister of Australia was caught on video tape doing something bizarre, horribly embarrassing, and just plain funny.

In the background of a video captured by a Parliament camera, Kevin Rudd is supposedly seen putting his finger in his ear, and then putting the same finger in his mouth.

Why would a person do that? I'm aghast.

How could you show your face again, after this has been plastered all over the web, let alone be the head of Australia?!

Now that's funny.
