Forget Mall Rats
If you thought herds of teenage mall rats were causing problems, you haven't been keeping up with the latest news. The real danger is not mall rats, but herds of mall deer. They're rampaging through shopping malls, knocking over jewelry stores.
A herd of deer tore through the Trappe Shopping Center. One of the deer crashed through the front window at Shin Brothers Jewelers. It frantically ran around inside, slamming into a glass door and knocking over displays before finally finding its way out.
Witnesses say the deer joined the rest of its buddies and the herd ran off. They seemed to be OK.
Obviously, the Animal Uprising™ is hard up for funds and is resorting to smash and grab raids.

They just created a new cliche - an alernative to “bull in a china shop” - we now have “deer in a jewelry store”!

Good choice for post holiday fashion: Wear a necklace on your antlers. It stays out of your beer that way.

Just think, if they start knocking off liquor stores, you can use “Have some Madiera, M’deer” for an article title.

So the legal drinking age of swine is?
