    From the Onion:
    <edit>Ooops! That's what I get for not reading things properly. :eek:
    Heh.
    Em.
    Er.
    The words, 'hook' and 'line' spring to mind. Did I mention 'sinker'?
    I knew it was fake. I was just testing. <cough>

    Oh dear. Now I feel really stupid. Oh well, not the first time.
    Ahem.
    Oh yeah, here's the link to the entirely fictional account that I saw through from the beginning:

    LOL, we don't need more people quoted faux news sources, some of the real ones are bad enough as it is.
