The latest in outsourcing

This just in from Art Buchwald - Outsourcing Takes a Holiday

The country is outsourcing everything these days. By sending work abroad, America saves billions of dollars.

It is in this spirit that Tommy Cook, a travel agent, came up with a plan.

"Why not outsource vacations?"

. . .

"Now this is the 'Great Wall of China Trip.' A Chinese guide in Beijing will visit the Great Wall and send you pictures of it. He will also go to Shanghai and Hong Kong. If you took this trip, it would cost $3,000. My man would do it for $130."

And when will they outsource death and taxes?
