Pup Scores Game Winning Goal for Wrong Team
A Boston Terrier named Venus has a terrible night on the pitch yesterday.
The amateur soccer player was ecstatic after he scored a winning goal in the waning seconds of his match – until he looked up and saw his own goal keeper guarding the net he’d just scored on. The own-goal won the game for the opposing team and led fans to boo the puppy as he walked off the field.
“It was embarrassing, for sure,” said Sheila Rizzo, the coach of the pup’s team. “The other lads were pretty upset with him and the fans were merciless. But we all went out for a few beers and it’s water under the bridge. We’re preparing for our next match.”

Cat Still Trying to Get the Hang of Partying
According to sources, Ponce de León, an area cat, hasn’t quite mastered the art of partying.
“Poncey is trying really hard, I know he is,” opined Gail Collins, a local party planner. “But he’s just doing it wrong.”
Last weekend the cat threw a party, said Collins, but then spent the whole time just rubbing his face on the onion dip bowl, which got cat fur in the dip.
“No one was really happy about that,” reported Collins.

Area Bird Claims He Is ‘Not Angry’
A local birds’ rights group is up in arms (wings?) this evening because the hit video game Angry Birds was recently brought to their attention. The group, Friends of a Feather, was notified of the game’s existence when one of its members complained that he was being unfairly characterized by co-workers as ‘angry’ just because he bore some resemblance to the birds in the game.
“We were shocked to learn about the existence of Angry Birds. It perpetuates complete falsehoods about the nature of these majestic and loving creatures,” said FoF spokesperson Anna Kulpauer, adding that Frank, the bird who complained to the group, is “not an angry bird.”
It seems unfathomable that the organization is only just now hearing about a game that is 3 years old and has had over 1.7 billion downloads. Nevertheless, FoF plans to mount a full media campaign later this year to fight what it says are nasty bird stereotypes.
