Report: Vulgaria May Possess Flying-Car Technology
               
WASHINGTON, DC--State
               
Department officials are "deeply
               
concerned" by a just-released report
               
that Vulgarian despot Baron
               
Bomburst has acquired Chitty Chitty
               
Bang Bang, the fantastical flying car
               
created by zany, limber inventor
               
Caractacus Potts. "Vulgaria is
               
already a leader in the fields of child
               
abduction and wife-beating,"
               
Secretary of State Madeleine
               
Albright said. "If they can
               
reverse-engineer the Potts device
               
and discover the tactically crucial,
               
splendiferous technology of airborne,
               
turn-of-the-century Grand Prix racers,
               
the global balance of power could
               
potentially be altered forever."
