The Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: Dangerous Ewe. Sir George over at the Rottweiler Empire, has this take on the insanity in Britain, where police shot a sheep after a "three and a half hour stanoff."

A three-and-a-half-hour "stand-off"?! Holy Jebus, was the bleatin' sheep holding its fleas hostage and threatenin' to dive into the dip? Did the cops think it was on the lamb, or were the first two hours blown in the hope of charging it with soliciting? And what's this part about "believed to have been a white ewe"? Come on Watson; was the sheep white or a subtle shade of, well, black? Was it a ram or a ewe, with five points if you can tell from somewhere in the next county. Sherlock Holmes must be turning over in his grave to read "The Case of the Transvestite Ram with the Bleached Blonde Fleece" or "Scotland Yard stumped by Sesame Street question".

Maybe it just caught me off-guard, but I laughed out loud.
