Swine Flu Amulet, anyone?

BANGKOK - Responding quickly to the H1N1 pandemic, Health Minister Witthaya Kaewparadai announced today that the FDA has completed fast-track approval for a special amulet which would protect all who wore it from catching the virus.

(i.e. 6:30 a.m.) "You foreigners keep food in your refrigerators for a long, long time, then you actually eat it!" "Why do you foreigners wear such embarassingly tiny swimsuits and clothes?"

"What lotion do you use to get your skin so white?" "Why do you fo...
