The one on the left was so obviously trying to give himself a Batgirl mask. Awwww!

It said their attorney had no comment for the media - probably couldn't quit laughing!

True enough. After all, that's what everyone said about Dubya.

You're always willing to make allowances for dumb animals, dear! That's the most annoying thing about you.

Imagine being the attorney for those guys. It wouldn't make you feel very good about your career progress ....

In that case, would you be interested in one of our dogs, and two of our cats?

Finances forbid the acquisition of anything living that can't pay rent at the moment, unfortunately.

All those difficulties would fade like the morning dew in the sunlight of the pure, clear love we have for each other! But if you need me to pay the rent, furgeddaboutit.

Look, in this place ran Ferret's' dagger through;
See what a rent the envious Rocky made;
Through this the well-beloved Wotan stabb'd;
And as he pluck'd his cursed steel away,
Mark how the blood of MattMark follow'd it,
As rushing out of doors, to be resolved
If Wotan so unkindly knock'd, or no.

I really, really can't see MM as a statesman and general, mighty though my imagination is.

I arrested a drunk student who broke into an Art Department dressed as a giant rooster once - the dispatcher at first refused to believe me when I called it in....

  My favourite is one from over here - A guy who fancied the receptionist at a place he was casing, so he gave her his name and phone no - and still returned 3 days later to rob the place!!!
