11:05 a.m. – A woman from the 200 block of Catherine Lane reported birds were mocking her; she said law enforcement was sending the birds to watch her.
Is this another nefarious plot by Sheriff Royal to stifle the freedoms of the citizenry? Are they really birds, or cleverly disguised drones? What kind of birds are they? Jailbirds? Stool pigeons? So many questions…
Aye matey, best we all keep an eye peeled on such goin’s on.
Of course, they are mockingbirds.
Duh!
One of my favorites, uttered by Joe E. Brown in the 1930’s almost classic, “Six Day Bike Rider”, was, “If my dog looked like that I’d shave its butt and teach it to walk backwards.”
I remember That one!! Ha, Ha….
There was apparently a newer version, “If my dog had a face like yours I’d shave his ass and teach him to walk backwards.”, Gleaming the Cube (1989).
The Joe E Brown version actually was making fun of the other guy’s dog…
First, Crabbman, I missed you at the Knights of Columbus Crab Feed. Second, the Police Blotter is one of the funniest parts of our local paper. Love it and thanks for sharing.
