RODENT PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING

Snakes, cats and raptors are reportedly roaming the streets of America to celebrate their wins in the national elections. Rodents are advised to stay indoors and not to answer knocks, scratches, or taps on the door. This situation is expected to continue through next week.

REMEMBER: Even a drunk feline is dangerous. Cute, but dangerous.

Worldcom inflated earnings to consume
all available space in the universe within ten days

I must interrupt today's election to bring you terrible news: it appears that the ever-increasing inflated earnings of a certain feline-run corporation known as Worldcom will soon have disastrous results for inhabitants of our universe. I've spoken to Millicent the Rat, Professor of Weird Crap We Can't Explain, at Stanford University, and she could barely contain her fear and concern. "At first we thought, this won't affect anything, because inflated earnings aren't technically real--but then we discovered that at a certain size (currently 9 billion dollars), imaginary money spontaneously transforms into horse manure."

This shocking revelation quickly spread through the rodent science community and panic has ensued. Human scientists, predictably asleep at the switch, have yet to realize the magnitude of the problem. Millicent has no advice: "There is nothing you can do about that much shit."

Duuuuuuuuuuude.

Down with the Duplication and Multiplication of Chickens Act! Down with it now!

Ooooh! I like that. Do it some more.
