I would laugh but I know tht right now some poor schlub is looking at that and saying "It protects me from SARS!?! Where's my credit card?"

It would be funny if it weren't so pathetic.

Right I'm off out to shoot an elk. They're really common here, so it shouldn't be a problem................
What the hell is elk velvet? :eek:
