He must have said he'd miss the conference when pigs fly.
Because...
Swine flu.

4 of the main reasons to go to Sweden:
1) Music (Europe, ABBA, Ace of Base, Roxette, The Cardigans, and Yngwie Malmsteen just to name a few!)
2) Everybody has IKEA furniture. It is stylish and comfortable (and highly affordable!).
3) Swedish Meatballs. (Tastylicious!)
4) The Swedish Ladies. (Have you seen a picture of Mrs Tiger Woods?! Tastylicious!)
Reasons not to go to Sweden:
1) Swine flu.
2) ???
Seems to me that the pros outweigh the cons here.

I bet they were first going to tell him it was a hawaiian themed party, so he'd be the only one to show up in shorts and one of those ugly hawaiian shirts, but reconsidered and just figured out they didn't want him there at all.

Actually, it doesn't seem to be that deadly, at least not more so then the regular flu. If it devastates the southern hemisphere (where it will be winter soon) then we can panic.

What a cute pig! *Slits pigs throat and lets the blood drain out on the floor while whistling a Katey Perry song*

It's funny how the thing that appalled me the most was you whistling a Katy Perry song.

Oh! I get it now!
The pig was hot now it's cold?
Either that or you kissed the pig... and you liked it.
(But now you have contracted swine flu, so I guess it's curtains for you.)
