Fun & Frivolity: Pigs And A Drunk

A couple of light-hearted stories to pass along to send you off on your weekend...

First, in an effort to save England's pork industry, a couple dozen pig farmers gathered in London to record a song that they hope will raise money and awareness.  The words to the song?  Sung to Tammy Wynette's "Stand by Your Man":

"Stand by your ham," runs the chorus. "Sausages, pork and bacon/Help us stay in business/Because our pigs are worth it/Stand by your ham."

Second, here's a story about a guy who made the things a whole lot easier for police.  A 28-year old Canadian man had a bit too much to drink, so he pulled into the parking lot of a local police station and wandered inside, where officers took him into custody.  Constable Mark Scheck made the obvious understatement: "[I]t's pretty unusual."

Have a great weekend!
