Bird brain’s vax attack

REPUBLICANS have hit out at Big Bird after the Sesame Street character’s Twitter account advocated getting vaccinated for Covid-19. “I got the Covid-19 vaccine today,” the kids’ bright yellow favourite, inset, chirped. “My wing is a little sore, but it’ll give my body an extra protective boost that keeps me and others healthy.” Texas Republican Ted Cruz couldn’t help but get involved with the giant Muppet. He squawked: “Government propaganda... for your five-year-old.” Who would have ever thought? A sitting senator who defended Nazi salutes attacking Big Bird.

A 39-YEAR-OLD man was rescued naked from inside the walls of the historic Landmark Theatre in Syracuse, New York state.

He’d been trapped in nothing but his birthday suit for days.

Firefighters drilled a hole in the wall and used a fibre-optic camera “to determine his exact location and how to best extricate him,” the department said.

CHRISTOPHER James Callen had been serving time in Monroe County jail in the Florida Keys on a charge of failing to register as a sex offender since September.

Last week Callen attacked his 57-year-old cellmate – beating him so severely that he knocked out two of the other man’s teeth and broke one of his ribs, according to the sheriff ’s office.

The reason for Callen’s rage, he told deputies, was because his cellmate “passes gas too often and doesn’t give any courtesy flushes when using the toilet,” the sheriff’s office said in a press release.

A WOMAN who went to have a mole removed from her skin was hit with an $11 “brief emotion” charge on her $223 bill.

Turned out the billing of CPT Code 96127 added to the cost was because she cried at one point.
