AS I was getting ready for my current assignment, filling in for Tom on the morning show, I came across a news story that I just had to share here.  It made me both sad, and mad.  Sad and mad mostly because I couldn’t be on hand to cover this story.

Dateline – Honolulu …. A man headed into the courthouse was stopped by security.  He wasn’t trying carry anything harmful into the courthouse.  Nope.  Not even slightly.  He was carrying a gym bag..  The gym bag went on the X-ray scanner.  Security was shocked with what they saw. A bottle of beer and . . . . . .

A Duck….

Yes, a duck.  Not sassy like Daffy.  Not rabid like Cujo-duck.  A plain old paddle footed duck.

No word on why he was trying to get a duck into the courthouse.  I can only imagine the duck was a witness in some sort of malpractice case.  The kind of case where the duck would be asked to describe the defendant.  The duck would respond – Quack!
