Other Crap

More proof that there's no correlation between intelligence and wealth: Rich women in Japan were conned by a firm into believing LAMBS were valuable miniature POODLES.

"The bizarre scam was rumbled when Japanese movie star Maiko Kawakami complained on a talk show that her new poodle refused to bark or eat dog food. She showed photos of the animal and was devastated when told that it was a lamb."

"Cops believe that up to 2,000 people across the country had been swindled in the same way. One couple found out the truth only after a dog beautician told them that she could not trim their poodle’s claws — because they were HOOVES"

NOTE: SNOPES later determined this story to be a hoax.
