NEWS FLASH
=========================
< WASHINGTON, D.C. (Rueters) -- Another piranha attack
occurred at the Smithsonian Institution late this afternoon,
leaving its new Secretary Dr. G. Wayne Clough fighting for his
life in a hospital. Cloug, recently appointed as the 12th
Secretary of the Smithsonian, was viciously attacked by the
piranha while enjoying a dip in the Institution's indoor
executive swimming pool. A Smithsonian spokesman said Clough,
who was alone and swimming nude, required 145 stiches to close
gashes to his face, head, elbows arms, stomach, left ear and
buttocks. "It was horrible, just horrible," revealed the
spokesman. "The pool was rosey red -- the color of expensive
Pinot Noired wine -- when they pulled him out." An
investigation is underway to apprehend the person responsible
for placing the piranha in the pool and one Ed Conrad, a
leading suspect, has already been questioned but released.
Conrad told police it couldn't possibly be him because he
hates the smell of fish and was in D.C. to attend a Nats'
baseball game. A previous piranha attack had taken place nine
months ago, leaving thr flesh-less skeletons of a Smithsonian
official in the pool. That case had never been solved.
