The Vindicated Wereowl Parade

It's an old story. A bearded man finds love, a career, owls and fifteen hundred books in a part of the country he'd previously never anticipated even visiting. He learns to stop apologizing for his very pointed interest in the darkest aspects of life and comes to terms with his spirituality, which could be classified as "probably voodoo." He shares his home with a homonculus, an ocelot and a semi-feral catling and regularly interacts with federally protected birds.You know, that tired hat.

Gnu.

So. Today, in North Liberty, IN (10 miles South of South Bend), a man was trampled and head-butted to death by his pet wildebeest.

His.

Pet.

Wildebeest.

A gnu. Death by gnu, his coroner report will state. Now, correct me if I am wrong, but wildebeest are native creatures to East Africa, where they roam in picturesque herds. They killed Mufasa in "The Lion King" for shits and giggles. Now, they've taken another life.

I've always said that I was raised by wildebeest. Now, more than ever, I understand why I am the way I am.

Good night, Bloomington.

Yes Dom, it is possible the Gnu and Moose are distant relatives.

Have a good one! :D
