Very Apropos: V.D. for V.D.!

Just in time for Valentine's Day, the CDC announces untreatable clap!

Location, location, loca ... Cowboys, cowgirls, surfers, mountain men, mountain women, lumberjills & lumberjacks, farmworkers & L.A.-area lounge lizards be wary:
[A]bout 1.7 percent of gonorrhea is now resistant to cephalosporins, the last line of defense against gonorrhea. That might not seem like much, but it's a 17-fold increase since 2006, when about one tenth of one percent of gonorrhea was believed to have resistance to cephalosporins.

[...] [T]he strains are showing up most often in the western states, where 3.6 percent of gonorrhea has shown resistance to cephalosporins, and in men who have sex with men, with nearly 5 percent of gonorrhea showing resistance.
Almost forgot the obvious:Coercing a declaration of love (It's as bad as taxes!):The not-trying-to-be-fast-&-funny original version wherein Limebags Led Zep are mocked, rather than punks.
