In other news, a 97 story building, built in only 26 mins in central Bejing, mysteriously collapsed today killing all 2400 residents of the complex instantly. Engineers investigating the site of the massive, yet totally unexpected catastrophe, speculated that based on Communist Party surveillance footage gleened from CCTV cameras installed in every single unit, that the probable cause of the disaster was likely a house cat on the 51st floor which farted spontaneously, yet in epic fashion, as a result of consuming a 3-day old cardboard carton of Moo Shoo Pork. Apparently the toxic levels of MSG contained in the take-out delicacy wreaked havoc on the furry feline's intestinal 'super highway' from 6:00p.m. Saturday until at approx. 2:37 a.m. Sunday morning, when the gaseous blast could no longer be contained. The resulting shock wave of aromatic fury apparently blew a half-empty box of Kleenex off a coffee table, and the sudden weight imbalance cause the towering mega-structure - a shining symbol of China's construction industry world dominance, to suddenly buckle, cleave sideways, and completely implode. The building is said to have completely disintegrated to virtual dust in less than 12 seconds.

Search teams and rescue dogs working around the clock in a vain attempt at locating human survivors have not found even the remotest signs of life under the building foundation's tangled heap of iron and concrete rubble, but are said to have heard an intermittent, plaintive wailing sound emanating from far underground where it appears a house cat with severe gastrointestinal problems may still be trapped without food, water, or fresh litter.

We couldn't even get a building inspector on the site in that short time.
