Ruh roh...Bubonic plaque mice gone missing
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 03:21 PM by Atman
NEWARK, N.J. - Three mice infected with the bacteria responsible for bubonic plague apparently disappeared from a laboratory about two weeks ago, and authorities launched a search though health experts said there was scant public risk. ...

"The incident came as federal authorities investigate possible corruption in the school's finances. The FBI is reviewing political donations and millions of dollars in no-bid contracts awarded to politically connected firms."

How much is a plague-riddled mouse worth on the black market these days? Bet it would fund one hell of gymnasium!

5. Maybe if they didn't spend so much money..........
on political "donations"(bribery) for those fat, no-bid contracts there might have been enough money for some decent security, 'ya think? bush and the slugs have sold this country piecemeal out from underneath us. They've privatized everything because, gosh darn it, the private sector can do a much better job", right? Well......maybe not.
Awww fuck, now we've got THIS shit to worry about along with every other damned bush disaster.
