How about "Baaa-shful"?

Baaaaa. I'm a crazy sheep!

As I maintain my vigilant watch for all Xinjiang-related news, this stupid story keeps popping up on my radar. A few newspapers in Australia and New Zealand - lands both famed for their love of ruminant mammals - seem to have gotten their hands on the above photo of a four-horned sheep from Xinjiang's Altai region. Awful pun-laced headline mania has ensued, as you can see for yourself from the following headlines:

• Herd the one about the battle of Little Big Horn?
• Hands up if you want some extra ram for your computer
• TWO TOO MANY HORNS EWE MIGHT SAY
• Sheepish critter just too horny

Oh, what a stupid world we live in. And by we, I mean Australians and New Zealanders. Just kidding! Pass the Watties sauce, will ya, mate?
