In Taiwan, the first Hello Kitty maternity hospital has been built. Everything is Hello Kitty from the sheets to the curtains and the furniture and life-sized Hello Kitty characters do regular ward visits. The sound you just heard was Mariah Carey saying to one of her minions "Book that place out for me NOW. Even if I'm not pregnant, as rumours would have it, I just want to hang out there. You know, like a vacation."
