I’m sorry, but that’s the real story and if you don’t believe me, read this article on the bird flu (and its attendant fears) spreading to France in The Times (UK). Read all about French policemen going on wild duck shootouts, a swan who may or may not have existed in Disneyland before it was found dead of unknown causes (perhaps suicide?), and cocks bred for fighting dying of apoplexy when banned from cockfights.

If you’re not through scaring yourself, read: “Bird flu seen reaching U.S. within a year.” [ WaPo]
