“Persian Bug”



Iran and other countries in the Middle East have been hit by a versatile, spying computer virus.  Reports say the virus has affected 2 out of 5 computers in Iran.  Western intelligence was shocked to learn that Iran has 5 computers.

Tehran is blaming Israeli intelligence for their troubles, cursed their technology, and threatened to destroy the state of Israel and kill all of its citizens.  Or as they call that, Tuesday.

Iranian president Mahmud Ahmadinejad is most upset over the fact that the virus has completely disrupted his viewing of camel porn.

Watson’s victory led it to prepare to take over the world, but it was thwarted when Alex Trebek was quick to tell it, “Gort, Klaatu beratta niktu.”
