    What a step down for a staff used to contracting malaria, dengue and candiru.

    On the bright side, this month's issue features extensive photographs of topless native women. You're welcome.

    @RheaPollstry: I know I'm going to sound naive with this but the Travel Channel last night had a show about this Amazonian tribe that live in the jungle and they were all just nekkid all the time. It was crazy to see it on regular cable TV. Lot's of penii, pubic hair, and pancake titties. I couldn't quit watching it until they started cooking monkey. When the first monkey hit the fire is when I changed the channel.

    The bigger swine flu news is in Argentina, where there's quite an outbreak at the moment.

    @Smitros: I've heard from family in Australia that it's bad there, too (not that we're hearing much about international cases when they don't involve Americans). My bro-in-law is on forced telecommuting (I know, poor him) as are most of the other people he works with.

    Damn southern hemisphere winter, keeping H1N1 alive and kicking.

    Didn't know about Australia. Sorry to hear that. I'm looking forward to a little telecommuting, though, with a laptop computer and the Smitrodog on the sofa.

    Sorry, you kind of confused me when you mentioned pork and sandwiches in the same sentence. Should I be prepared to die, or should I be prepared for bacony deliciousness?

    @SwissMister: I'd prepare for death. Then, if you get bacony deliciousness, it's a bonus!

    Set your sights low so you always overacheive, that's my motto.

    Instead of a color coded guage used for terror levels, can there be some sort of pork based food scale? Where Bacon means everything is good, and Scrapple means we're all doomed...

    This is like the time the Innuit sued Greenpeace for saying that they whaled on marine life.

    "He has never killed anyone or raped a woman."


    It is interesting that the lawyer, who presumably chooses his words very carefully, did not write, "He has never killed or raped anyone."

    Pig-stealing in New Guinea is like corpse-fucking in New Jersey.


    Swine are luxury goods in New Guinnea. No BS - my grandmother was almost killed on a scientific expedition there in the 70s because another member of her tribe (AKA, people of pallor) had hit one of their pigs with his jeep earlier that week.
