Don't you hate it when a delivery goes missing!!!

Inflatable boobs lost at sea
Australian Associated Press
December 2, 2008, 12:04 pm

More than 130,000 inflatable breasts have been lost at sea en route to Australia.

Men's magazine Ralph was planning to include the boobs as a free gift with its January issue.

The cargo is worth about $200,000, which is another blow for publisher ACP's parent company PBL, which is already in $4.3 billion of debt.

A spokeswoman for Ralph said the container left docks in Beijing two weeks ago but turned up empty in Sydney this week.

The magazine has put out an alert to shipping authorities to see if they have the container, but if they don't turn up in the next 48 hours it will be too late for the next issue, she said.

Ralph editor Santi Pintado urged anyone who has any information to contact the magazine.

"Unless Somali pirates have stolen them its difficult to explain where they are," Pintado told AAP.

"If anyone finds any washed up on a beach, please let us know."
My first guess is that considering that Beijing is over 100km inland, I am wondering how it was put on a ship there?

I wonder how many people will be cancelling their subscription now because they did not get their inflatable breasts?

I believe they are in the local cinema watching Woody Allen's "Everything You Wanted to Know About S*x, But Were Afraid To Ask"

Seems as though they have a relative in a featured role.
