"My hair is my name."
The ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) has issued an animal cruelty alert, because of a rash of cases that has cropped up in 2006.
It began on January 1 in western Pennsylvania, where a lion was viciously attacked.
The next week, a Bengal tiger in Ohio was horribly mauled. Apparently the tiger's abuse had happened on a regular basis for many years.
A week later, a young horse in Indiana was battered. According to rumors, the colt was injured because it was not properly protected.
Seven days later the crime spree moved west, when another horse was beaten in Colorado. Experts believe the bronco's beating was related to a snake that choked that same day.
Officials who have been tracking this series of events believe that the attackers will strike next in Michigan. The apparent target is a group of birds of prey that have been relocated from the Pacific Northwest. Analysts suspect that this crime spree will end with a particularly vicious attack this week.
Witnesses say that the attackers at each scene are traveling on a bus. Researchers tell us that the bus's final destination is Canton, Ohio.
Organized crime trackers have found that the attackers are being supported by a radical group of fanatics centered in western Pennsylvania. The organization was founded in 1932 by a cigar-smoking local man. After his death in 1988, his son took over and continues to run the organization.
While no one has been able to find a way to stop the attackers, you can protect yourself from them by twirling a small yellow towel over your head.
GO STEELERS!!!!!!!
