What’s It All About, Algae?
Seaweed Bloom Threatens To Mar Olympic Sailing Event
It’s enough to make you unclench your jaw.
With less than six weeks to go before the Olympics, the Yellow Sea, site of the Olympic sailing regatta, is choked with a major algae infestation.
According to reports, the algae covers nearly 5000 square miles — roughly one square mile for every man, woman and child on the southeast corner of Mott and Canal Street in New York’s Chinatown.
Chinese propaganda officials say the problem is under control and should be solved within the week with the arrival of 20,000 Tibetan dissidents who will be ordered to eat three meals a day of seaweed salad until the algae growth has been eradicated.
According to State official Sum Yung Gai, “You see, we are helping to promote the most glorious Olympics and at the same time combating hunger among the subversive Tibetans.”
China is using the Olympics to showcase it’s forward-thinking economy and the Olympic sailing regatta is expected to attract over five viewers worldwide.
In other news, Chinese National television is devoting three full days to airing an instructional video on the proper way to wear an ascot.
