Around 70 Mexicans have been quarantined in China due to fears of Swine flu. They are shippin’ ’em out today. I don’t know what to say. {BBC}

Georgia is obviously not over last year’s scrapes with Russia. G blamed a recent mutiny at an army base on R’s plan to “disrupt Nato military exercises set to begin tomorrow in Georgia.” {G}

Kid Cudi says three stacks and Lily Allen both rejected his request for collaborations. Too bad I would have liked to hear a track with André 3000. {Swarm}
