President Bush escapes mob of insane turkeys

Humboldt County, California deputy sheriffs personally escorted President Bush back to the White House today, ending his weeklong captivity in the feathers of  a mob of insane turkeys. The turkeys drove Bush all the way from Washington, D.C. in a white van  with the words "WE ARE INSANE TURKEYS" spray painted on the side.

Bush managed to wrestle himself free of the turkeys after they accidentally lodged the white van in a drive-through redwood tree. The turkeys decided to burn up the two thousand year-old tree in order to free the van. When the van caught fire as well, the turkeys did the Insane Turkey Dance of Fire, and then burped for an hour. Bush took advantage of the commotion and slipped away to nearby Highway 101, where he thumbed a ride to Eureka with Roy the Alternative Seaweed Man.

At first Deputy Sheriff Roscoe Sunnybrae wasn't convinced that the disheveled man wearing an "Seaweed Lovers Do It With Little Green Men" t-shirt really was President Bush. "I looked at 'em, and I thought, nobody'd vote for that moron, no way. But then he started talking, and, you know, that was him all right."

Bad night for the human (and the corgi)

My agent, Susan the Human, spent last evening administering large quantities of hydrogen peroxide to one Holly the Corgi, in an effort to persuade Holly to return to sender about 6 gourmet chocolates.  There are very few things, Susan tells me, that are less enjoyable than inducing a corgi to vomit. I'm happy to report Holly brought up the chocolates as directed, and is now enjoying her martyrdom on the couch with only minor ill effects.

For those uneducated in the canine arts, chocolates are very toxic to dogs, (and rats) and Holly's friendly veternarian advised that 6 truffles could very well be a fatal dose.  Having dodged this bullet, Holly spent the morning scouring her house for any other potential food item that could get her in trouble and keep her humans up until 3:00 in the morning.

Ooooh! I like that. Do it some more.
