Stolen Penguin

Somebody nicked a penguin from the Dublin Zoo yesterday.

No, seriously. They nicked a ten-year-old female penguin. From the Zoo.

The ingenuity of some people keeps on amazing me. The Irish Times reports that the thieves broke into the Zoo around 8am in the morning, kidnapped the penguin and took off in a cab.

Why would you steal a penguin?
What was the cab driver thinking?
What were the thieves thinking?

I bet they weren't after a penguin at all, because it was found few hours later loitering on the streets. I bet they were after a midget nun, like these!

I tell you, the world is the most bizarre place!
