I like cheese.

[MalcolmS]

will someone please clue me in on the moose & cheese thing?

You have to ask the sister but she's in the shower right now

As best as I can determine, there was a discussion regarding cheese, leading to a mention of a mouse.

A hapless spelling-challenged poster then wrote: "A mouse bit my sister once"...only it came out "A moose bit my sister once". Naturally, like sharks in a FReeding FRenzy, the assembled FReeper hoards decended unmercifully upon the hapless poster, and FReeper history was made.

Naturally, that reminds me of a joke.

A Scottsman visited Northern Canada, where the Moose are plentiful. His host took him for hike, emphasising how big the lakes were, how big the vast country was, how big the trees were and how big the wildlife grew. At one point, he whispered, "look, a moose". The Scottish visitor looked in the indicated direction, peering on the forest floor. "Not down there, you ninny!" said his host, pointing to a clearing in the bush. The Scot took one look at the moose, screamed and ran back to their cabin.

When the breathless guide caught up with him, he taunted his guest. "I can't believe you're afraid of a moose." The Scot replied, "I'm not afraid of that beast, but if that's the size of the moose, I'm terrified to imagine how big the cat must be." (/rimshot)

I kept expecting to see "Ms Youngberg is considering a lawsuit against the moose, the moose calf, God for making the moose, Alaska Fish and Game for tracking the moose to her yard and not doing anything about it, the local Fred Meyer for selling the plants that attracted the moose to her yard, the state of Alaska for being in the moose habitat, and the local wolf population for not getting momma moose when they had a chance."

Her lawyer, Johnnie Cochran, said the pet kill is vicious, malicious, and for me, monetarily delicious.

Peaches was killed in Youngberg's back yard by a moose cow.

For the "older" crowd at FR:

Soupy Sales was devastated by the news:

"I'm crushed. No more romantic outings at the baseball games, where I kissed her on the strikes and she kissed me on the balls......"

So the moose must have been using Bush's strategery of preemtive self defense and decided to kill the dog before it became a threat to the calf.

Stupid Frenchy dogs.

It's a good thing that Peaches, was not named Cheeses.....
