Frog Bank Robbers Turn Out to Be Bulldogs in Disguise
Frog Bank Robbers Turn Out to Be Bulldogs in Disguise
The “Frog Boys,” a bank robbing duo, have been terrorizing the Midwestern United States for the past three weeks. Now police in Kansas have apprehended a pair of bulldogs they believe at the infamous bank robbers.
“We had been looking for a couple of amphibians,” said FBI investigator Carlton Schmidt. “But turns out we should have been looking for some dogs in frog suits.”
The pair have robbed six banks in four states and face federal charges carrying over 150 years in prison.

Golden Retriever Opens Doggie Driving School
Golden Retriever Opens Doggie Driving School
Packing up your pooch for a drive to the vet or groomer can be a pain. Why can’t dogs drive themselves to their own appointments?
That’s the question (and market demand) Roxy hopes to address. The golden retriever cut the ribbon on her new business, Doggie Drivers’ Ed, and her student roster is already filling up.
“Am I concerned about having dogs – who can’t tell the difference between food and their own puke – driving on our nation’s highways?” asks Luke Childress. “You bet. Did I sign my terrier Jonesy up for driving classes? Absolutely. I’m tired of driving him to soccer practice every morning. He’s old enough to afford some independence.”

Cat Re-Opens Diplomatic Relations With North Korea
Cat Re-Opens Diplomatic Relations With North Korea
Belligerent rhetoric from North Korean leader Kim Jong-un heated up over the weekend, with threats against South Korea and the U.S. flying furiously.
Concerned for the welfare of his nation, a cat named Lilo worked his contacts in Washington and was able to get a direct line to Pyongyang with the hope of cooling tensions.
“He figured if Dennis Rodman could do it, he might as well try,” says Jerry Rusbacher, a friend of the cat who teaches international relations at Florida State University. Rusbacher is referring to the unfettered access granted to the former NBA star when he visited Mr. Kim earlier in March, which perplexed many analysts. “Not sure how much progress Lilo made, but it sounds like he and Kim Jong-un had a productive conversation.”
