First there was shrinking sheep. Now there are shrinking fish. (And the economy has been shrinking for some time ...).

The world will become an ugly place if it is discovered that exposure to global warming shrinks haemorrhoids. But on the upside, will global warming be the panacea for the plague of obesity: 'make your body adoring, suck up some global warming'.
