Cthulhu invades the Family Circus!

I don't remember where I first saw this, so I can't credit the parody artist. But found it in a dusty folder in my hard drive and laughed when I saw it again.

Gleaned from the Net: Weird Rabbit Stories

More oddness for Easter.

Notice that two of the "giant rabbit" stories below use the same photo of big-a$$ bunny and handler, though they are supposed to be different stories in different places. Note too that snopes.com says rabbits as big as small children is a fact! Holy "Night Of The Lepus"!

EasTER-ROR!

Just back from a long trip, the Drunken Severed Head awoke this morning to find he'd been visited once again by the Easter Blowfish!

I'm not sure why this happens at my house every year (My Transylvanian blood? Result of flipping off an old gypsy woman in traffic?), but I enjoy seeing the ghostly holiday puffer come around. He always brings chocolate fugu and gaily-colored eggs, and it's always so suspenseful as to which goodies have deadly toxins and which are safe to eat. I always do the kindness of sharing with my neighbors first, of course.

Holiday trivia: a species of large blowfish found along the Atlantic seaboard is also known as the rabbitfish.

More trivia, from Wikipedia: "
"Some sources claim that about 100 people die each year from fugu poisoning...There are some reports of completely paralyzed but fully conscious victims that were believed to be dead, and woke up a few days later or just before being cremated. In some parts of Japan a fugu victim is put next to his coffin for three days to verify the death. If the body does not decompose, it is not yet dead.

"The pufferfish is also reported to be one of the main ingredients used in voodoo to turn people into zombies. [Some of my best friends are zombies. Max] According to ethnobotanist Wade Davis, the pufferfish is the key ingredient in the first step of creating a zombie, where the tetrodotoxin creates a 'death-like' state. In the second step, hallucinogens are used to hold the person in a will-less zombie state."

Happy Easter, everyone!
