"And in news today, the internet was shut down when stupid US
university students cross-posted messages between two of the largest
webchat clients on the internet. Submarine cable repairmen have been
called out to bash in the skulls of any left-over teenagers who are
considering getting drunk and sending the internet photos of their
stupid, drunk selves. 

In other news, a New Zealander was recently caught investigating the
nether-regions of a sheep. More news and a blood-spattered bib after
this brief advert."
