Bizarre: May 2003 Archives

ferret.jpg

As a rail commuter I feel duty bound to report that a feral ferret jumped on a train at last week, terrorising passengers by climbing over their laps, running around the train at top speed, sneaking into the driver's cab and diving into his lunchbox.

A spokesman for the railway company said as well as their recent clampdown on fare-dodging they were thinking introducing a policy on ferret-dodging.

and just to show you how easily even minor stories like this can get their facts wrong, read the same article on ananova - Fare-doding ferret causes train chaos

specifically the paragraph

A company spokesman said the unwanted passenger then ate the [driver] man's cheese sandwiches and biscuits before he had even noticed.
A company spokesman said the driver then fed the ferret his cheese sandwiches and biscuits to keep the animal happy.

Which is correct?

I have just seen Pavel's comment in jadedgrrl's entry about Who's all gay?.

He writes:

Well heck, it was so bizarre, I watched it three times through. Whatever that guy's smoking, I want some of it.

Reminded me of a flash movie I found a while back. I don't think you can beat THIS for weird.

Lyrics include:

"TV Says
Donuts are high in fat
Kazoo
Found a hoboo in my room
It's Princess Leia
The yodel of life
Give me my sweater back or I'll play the guitar"
