I just started getting these email from Newsmax that I never signed up for. Technically this would classify as spam, but some of the articles are a slight bit amusing. Take this for instance:

CHINA NAMES CONDOM FOR BILL CLINTON

A Chinese company is honoring ex-president Bill Clinton by naming a new line of condoms after him - along with a companion line of condoms that will be named after his ex-girlfriend, Monica Lewinsky.

Reports Britain’s Sky News: The Guangzhou Haokian Bio-science company has registered their names as trademarks for the contraceptives.

The condoms will display Chinese spellings: Kelitun and Laiwensiji.

A 12-pack of Clintons is expected to cost $5.00, with Lewinskys selling at a discounted price of just over $3.00.

The manufacturer’s general manager, Liu Wenhua, told Sky News that naming his condoms for Clinton was perfectly legal, explaining that “trademarks of two foreign surnames and can’t be seen as a violation of rights.”

Clinton is the only U.S. president to be honored with his own condom brand line.
New York Sen. Hillary Clinton was unavailable to comment on her husband’s latest achievement.
