Bullwinkle's old lady and kid boozers?

i laughed my ass off with this story!


Drunk Moose Invade Swedish Seniors Home
By the Associated Press

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN - They rarely have problems with drunks or rowdy animals, but residents of a retirement home in southern Sweden had to deal with both: A pair of intoxicated moose invaded the premises.

The moose-- a cow and her calf--had become drunk over the weekend by eating fermented apples they found outside the home in Sibbhult, said employee Anna Karlsson.

Police managed to scare them off once, but the tipsy mammals returned to get more of the tempting fruits. This time the moose were drunk and aggressive, forcing police to send for a hunter with a dog to make them leave.

Police did not pursue the culprits, but made sure all apples were picked up from the area, police chief Bengt Hallberg said. No one was hurt.


Hm. Who woulda thunk Bullwinkle's old lady and kid were boozers? wonder do they have AA meetings for wasted animals???

I wonder if Mad Moose is like Mad Cow?

I saw you had another post right before this one (my bloglines account). I read the first few sentences before I lost the post. Want to chat about it?

Also, I noticed you don't come around my blog anymore. Did I say something to offend you? I hope not.

That is a funny story. I didn't even know moose could get drunk. Learn something new everyday!

Moose rule. We have a lot of them out here in Colorado and I love 'em.
