The Washington Times today has one of those advertising sections for a foreign country, which always crack me up, as I think of some American lobbying firm making a handsome commission from an unread spread featuring pictures of the Grand Poobah of East Armpitistan christening a new water-treatment plant. But today’s is even better — it’s headlined, and I am not making this up, “Colon Free Zone.” Now, if you know anything about Panama, you know there’s the city of Colon (the Spanish translation of Columbus’s name), and it seems there’s a free-trade zone there. But you think of what they’re paying for the ad section, someone should have clued them in to the hilarious nature of the headline.

I now eagerly await Steyn’s reaction. (Speaking of which, how could he have missed the nipple-ring story?)
