The Olympic games are always a source of global fascination, be it for the exceptional athletic performances, performance-enhancing drug scandals, and now those new tests to determine if athletes are actually male or female. I tell you, that’s what I’m looking forward to this summer.

In times like these, I turn to a trusted news source, the Onion. Not surprisingly, they’ve got the beat on the Beijing Olympic games:
