I've been sent some mega stuff recently. This picture especially made me laugh:
And this letter from the archives of the Smithsonian Institute is right up my street:
Dear Sir:
Thank you for your latest submission to the Institute, labeled "211-D, layer seven, next to the clothesline post. Hominid skull." We have given this specimen a careful and detailed examination, and regret to inform you that we disagree with your theory that it represents "conclusive proof of the presence of Early Man in Charleston County two million years ago." Rather, it appears that what you have found is the head of a Barbie doll, of the variety one of our staff, who has small children, believes to be the "Malibu Barbie".
It gets better read the rest here.
I also love this story about the Japanese that were conned into buying sheep thinking they were poodles. First suspicions were raised when they refused to eat dog food; one lady took her animal to the vet to have its claws cut and was told they were hooves!
I’ve read about it in the sun and the metro. It’s one of those fabulous stories that lend themselves brilliantly to pun headlines. The Sun went with ‘Ewe've been conned ladies’ and the Metro opted for ‘Dog owners 'fleeced' in poodle scam’. The Sun wins that one I think. The best I could come up with was: Woof woof Jap sheep. I'm sure you can do better.
