...FlyBy feel compelled to give credit where credit is due. The Lampoon did a pretty sick job with what could only have been dreamed up during an acid trip of some sort. Bravo, good sirs. Now, if only you would publish more than five times a year...
...avoiding pig products. This behavior is irrational: Unlike mad cow disease, which involves prions that can stick around after death, viruses need their host to be alive and cannot survive cooking, so there’s no danger in eating cooked meat of a pig that was sick before it died. The Feds have tried to explain this to Americans and have even started calling the virus “H1N1” (after the scientific name for its strain) to protect industry, but the damage has already been done...

They also make it difficult, in many ways, to hit on sick people, so no need to worry about getting dirty germs. And think of all that time you’ll save from not touching your face and not touching other people to wash your hands with soap! Genius idea, we know, but now how can you proceed in getting this necessary, life-saving object you wonder? FlyBy has taken...
