Wide World of Weirdness.
OK, so Bigfoot was a bust, but there have still been a lot of great little weird news items recently. I thought I would pass on a few of my favorites, and ask for yours in comments.
Well, they used to hold naval battles there, so why not Pirates of the Colosseum?
Would this be Soylent Brown?
Rat snacks can solve world food price crisis: Indian official
Yum! And not to be outdone, the Aussies are saying we can save the planet by switching to 'Roo Burgers! Hmm, reminds me of a song...
Northern Peaks: the appropriate name for "Canada's first adult video channel offering significant Canadian adult content."
Ah, minor league sports! Of course, alcohol was involved in the small matter of a little impromptu ear-snacking.
A new way of fleecing the flock gets a Baptist preacher tossed in jail. I suppose the usual routes just weren't fast enough for him.
Wait, I thought they effectively outlawed private ownership of all guns in the UK? Why would police there need bullet-proof bras? You mean the guns didn't all magically disappear???
And lastly, who wants to take odds on the likely success of this marriage?
Got something to share?

Stew a kangaroo
I remember a nonsense song that I learned as a small child, from my mother who said it was from her childhood (therefore, pre-1981), with the lyrics:
So I have a feeling it wasn't a new situation in the 1980's, nor that the "Roo" song was all that unique.
Skippy is not only good for
Skippy is not only good for the environment, kind to the soil and no methane output, it also tastes yummy. I'm not sure I could eat a rat burger unless i was starving. However a Indonesian cheap hotel opperator once swore to me that the huge and ugly sewer rate on his counter was actually just his little pet. Hmmmm
ratatouille
Hi, I'm John Spartan, and I love a good ratburger. Now, will somebody teach me about these damned three shells in the bathroom?

Soylent brown
Reminds me of a poster I saw back in the late '70s, when Kleiban's cat books and posters were popular. The poster has a classic Kleiban-style cat strumming a guitar and singing
"Love to eat them mousies
mousies what I love to eat
bite they little heads off
nibble on they tiny feet."
I sing it to my own cats, who've never seen a mouse in their lives. They think I'm crazy. But then they always think I'm crazy.
Oh yeah.
You're not alone in remembering that, Karen. Heh!

Wow!
Weirdness abounds! The Soylent Brown is my favorite story, I think. The Baptist preacher.. How low can you go? Good stuff. A great way to start my Sunday. I now feel completely normal.
