Today on weird news theater...
Mar. 11th, 2005 01:08 pm... we have cats and dogs.
First, the cat story, which I summarize as "Guns don't kill people, people and occasionally cats kill people." (Eddie Izzard: "But I think the guns HELP.") Yes, that story really does have the headline "cat shoots man," which is a bit of "man bites dog" weird, except with guns.
Second, the dog story, which I summarize as "Even Sherlock Holmes couldn't get a conviction in these circumstances." This shih tzu was accidentally given a subpoena, but couldn't give testimony -- no dogs in the courthouse. (Which would mean that Holmes couldn't count on the testimony of the dog in the night. Poor fellow.)
Also, of course, many other weird things going on. But nothing can top those stories, so I sit contented.
