Rats! Look who's getting tipsy on illegal booze
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070620/od_ ... nCCCQuQE4F
Rats are gnawing at beer cans and making holes in caps of whisky bottles stored in police storehouses in eastern India and apparently getting drunk, authorities said on Wednesday.
The rodents' love for liquor has the police department in Bihar state stumped as it tries to store hundreds of bottles seized from illegal sellers from across the state in Patna, the state capital, said Kundan Krishnan, a senior officer.
"We are fed up with these drunk rats and cannot explain why they have suddenly turned to consumption of alcohol," he said.
The problem costs revenue as the seized liquor is usually sold through auctions, he said.
Rats were also attacking people near the police buildings, nibbling at their toes, although it was not clear if they were under the influence, officials and witnesses said. |

Hmm... I'm better off having a Sandal Cart instead of a Hot Dog Cart over there...

We better watch out or those pesky verments will be demanding service at the cafe.
Perhaps Vito can treat them to a royal flush.  |

Sue, Mr. Rat wants you to know that he strongly resents the implication that he cannot hold his liqour. True, his front paws are tiny, and it can be difficult to hold the glass, but for heaven's sake, that's why he uses a straw!
Mr. Rat also wanted me to pass on that the rumors of drunken orgy's are completely untrue.........

Taking the booze out of the hands of one form of rat only to have it fall into the mouths of another form of rat... poetic like justice if you ask me!
Erm... Cat... that is just...
*shudder*
DISTURBING!
*Goes off to take a shower....* |
