SHENZHEN — China revealed today
that the cardboard-stuffed pork buns reportedly being foisted of late
on an unsuspecting public turn out to have been a hoax. "Naturally
we're very upset," said a spokesperson. "Both because our friends
abroad would credit such a story in the first place, and because it
damages our image as a trustworthy trading partner concerned with human
welfare." He went on to say that the person responsible for starting
the rumor has been sentenced to be shot 472 times, and that this
groundless, prejudiced story has hurt the export of such products as
nitroglycerin-imbued Pyro-jamas, Wacky Glue Frosted Muffins, and
underwear woven from inexpensive poison ivy.|

Enjoyed.

Congrats on a fine, concise piece.
Cheers! |
