for verily they are toads, and they will pop.
To mark the anniverary of Hans Christian Anderson, and the calls by Shroeder to support this immoral EU constitution-
unknown forces have caused more than a thousand toads, (which belong to the same genus as frogs) to leave the small pond of Altona in Hamburg, and spontanously explode.
This is fatal.
The Public are being asked not to go into the parks.
The experts are baffled, this is because thanks to several generations of specialised education, there are no longer the sort of minds to be found in the average university who can answer questions like-
"Dr, why are the toads exploding?"
Thus, the specialist educationalist from the departments of Toadery, and Biotech R&D, and Multi-national-corporation management courses have come up with nothing better than -
"it could be fungus".
