Boy's screaming kills chickens?

BEIJING, Jan 24 (Reuters Life!) - Hundreds of chickens have been found dead in east China -- and a court has ruled that the cause of death was the screaming of a four-year-old boy who in turn had been scared by a barking dog, state media reported on Wednesday.

Now THAT'S a snake!

A pair of piano-playing piglets are being groomed for their musical debuts.

Rupert and Penny are being taught to play by owner Katie Mason, a 25-year-old zoology masters student. As part of her studies into animal behaviour, she decided to try out early learning on five-month-old miniature pigs Rupert and Penny."They love noise and throw the pots and pans around in the kitchen," Ms Mason said at the family farm at Manaton in south Devon.

She said she taught the pets the names of the piano, tambourine and drums by rewarding them when they found the instruments.

Cat gets in a jam




Police had to pause for thought after a cat tried to fish a mouse out of a jam jar and got its head stuck.

A motorist went to a police station for help after finding the tabby wandering by a road in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, with the jar on its head and the mouse millimetres from its nose. But a receptionist and three burly policemen could find no way to solve the puzzle. They pulled and twisted but to no avail, police said.

Eventually the cat freed itself - and the mouse - by smashing the jar on the floor of Thorpe Wood police station in Peterborough. "It was like a scene from Tom and Jerry," said a police spokeswoman.

I didn't feel like starting a whole new thread for this.

We have a mouse in the house. Last night, Tabitha was wondering aloud if it was in the spare bathroom linen close because she's seen it a couple of times run by the office door and that bathroom is right next door. A few seconds later "AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!" I thought, "she found the mouse." Then came my responsibility to drag everything out of that closet. I went into the bathroom with the two cats to do my duty. When I got everything out (just a couple of pillows and a rug) one of the cats stood there and stared at the mouse. Then it watched it exit the closet and squeeze under the closed bathroom door into the hallway. What a waste of fur. I don't know were it went but I put out a couple of glue boards with peanut butter on them, we picked up the cat food and took everything boxed out of the pantry and put it in the refrigerator. My Orkin man is coming today to put a bait box in the crawl space and leave me some more glue boards.

No laws broken by nude bowlers

OLD TOWN, Maine, Jan. 31 (UPI) -- Police responding to complaints about a nudist event at an Old Town, Maine, bowling alley have determined that no laws were violated.

The nudist group running the event, the Bare Nekkid Mainers, said the bowling alley was closed, the windows and doors were covered with paper and a notice posted outside announced that a private party was in progress, the Bangor (Maine) Daily News reported Wednesday.

However, a man apparently ignoring the signs during the Jan. 20 event entered the bowling alley with his 8-year-old son and witnessed a nude male playing pool.

"He walked through two doors that were covered in paper and had signs," said Hessa, an organizer of the event who asked to be identified only by her first name.

Disgusted, the man went to police, but law enforcement officers found nothing illegal about the event.

Streakers beware, the police in Ohio, US, do not take kindly to the prank.

During lunch at a high school in Westerville, a naked student dashed into the canteen covered head-to-toe in grapeseed oil, and began running around, screaming and flailing his arms.

That was nothing compared to what he was doing after the police turned up. The officer assigned to the school didn't find it funny and decided to zap him twice with a Taser stun gun. Apparently, it came as rather a shock.

Two pupils who used weed killer to draw a giant penis on their school lawn can now see the naughty image from satellite photos posted on the internet.

The unnamed pair of year 11 pupils from Bellemoor School for Boys in Southampton, Hampshire, burnt the 20ft phallus into the grass as an end of term joke two years ago.

Staff at the school re-seeded the area but the penis has turned up on satellite image search engines because the photo was taken before the new grass could conceal the appendage.
