GOLDFISH prove hygiene.
South Korea is planning on
placing goldfish into restroom
water supplies to ensure the purity
of the water therein, during the
global G20 Summit.
The move has drawn the ire of
animal rights groups, who say
that putting the goldfish in
contaminated water would cause
them an agonising death, as they
suffer the same amounts of pain
as dogs and cats.
South Korea has however
defended the move saying that it
was an “eco friendly” way of
ensuring that world leaders did
not drink or wash with bad water.
THIS is expialidocious!
Iconic actor Dick Van Dyke (of
Mary Poppins fame) has credited
the saving of his life to a porpoise,
which he says gently nudged him
to shore after he fell asleep on his
surfboard.
According to reports the 84-
year old Van Dyke fell asleep on
his board after feeling sick whilst
paddling out into the waves.
He awoke to find himself out of
sight of land, and surrounded by
fins.
“I started paddling with the
swells and I started seeing fins
swimming around me and I
thought ‘I’m dead!” he said.
“They turned out to be
porpoises.
“And they pushed me all the
way to shore,” he added.
NO more poop and run.
Fed up with dog owners who
don’t scoop the poop, community
members in the UK’s Milton
Keynes council area have hired a
private detective agency to install
spy cameras around popular dog
walking spots to catch lazy dog
owners who fail to clean up after
their dogs do their “business”.
“People are using us to shop
known offenders who have been
getting away with it for a long
time,” said doggie detective Mark
Halstead.
“Dog fouling is filthy and
dangerous to children and we
won’t tolerate it,” he added.
