News is a bit like nectar. Only, it isn't.

I am no man! ... but yes, the bacon is fake. It has caramel in it. But the baby elephant corpses are not for taking over the world, they are for catering to my every whim! Seriously.

If I'm honest, there was about an hour between writing the headline and writing the story... So... Um... take from that what you will.

True. Actually, two out of four is pretty good, considering.

Looking at that display, there's no way to be sure how much time there's left. In the last four panels, it first says 0:50, then 0:10, then 0:47, then 0:03. Looks like it's resetting itself all the time.

Remembering that Alien has already done in his Mom, I'm afraid Mr Alien Sr's chances of survival look rather grim...
