Osama Euthanized!

An alert reader just sent us this article and we are proud to be the first to report to the world the big news! Osama has been euthanized. He finally went a jogger too far, so to speak.

TERREBONNE, Ore. — Nancy Campbell of Terrebonne expected an uneventful evening jog Monday night with her eight-year-old daughter riding along on her bike.

Instead she ran into a llama suffering from what veterinarians call "berserk llama syndrome."

The llama knocked Campbell down, stomped its feet, spit, and bit her. Her daughter raced home to tell her father what was happening.

Staff from the Humane Society of Redmond arrived and it took five people to pin the 250-pound animal down. Veterinarian Dr. Rachel Eaton says male llamas sometimes go "berserk" around puberty if they aren't gelded. This, often after they have bonded too closely with people.

Now, the article states that the owner agreed to have the berserk llama put down. So why are we so pleased? Simple: we know the truth here at Blue Crab Boulevard:

Osama bin llama is no more.

(We just have one question here: Berserk Llama Syndrome? BLS is a recognized disease? Our neighbor down the lane keeps llamas (that is not a joke). We have just decided to upgrade the gun turrets here at the Crabitat. Anyone know where we could get a deal on a few of these?)
