Blackwater Changes Name, Ceases Evildoing
ABC is reporting that Blackwater, violence outsourcer, has officially changed its name to Xe. Human rights advocates rejoiced at the news that no company named Blackwater exists any longer. Protesters of corporate death manufacturers have not scored a victory this big since Philip-Morris began a new assuredly benign existence as Altria.
In an unrelated story, shootings reported in Southern Los Angeles (formerly South Central) are from now on to be referred to as “Fluffy Bunnies.” City officials look forward to discussing the latest uptick in Fluffy Bunnies at their semantics symposium next week.
