It Must Be a Camel

Houston can keep it's dive bombing birds - West Virginia has a much more dangerous beast on the loose. It seems that in Harrison County (in the north central part of the state), a woman was knocked over by a camel that promptly sat on her. The Daily Mail describes the gripping scene:

The woman, whose name was not released, was painting a fence late Wednesday morning when the 1,500 pound camel knocked her over and sat on her, according to Rick Rock [suppose he's married to Betty Boulder? - JDB], director of the Harrison County Emergency Squad.

'The camel, that was supposedly friendly, knocked her down and sat on her,' Rock said.

The victim was unable to move, but she managed to get to her cell phone and dial 911.

But my favorite quote is another from a local ambulance driver, who matter of factly stated, "[t]here is no protocol on something like this." No kidding!

As for the birds in Houston, take note that they were apparently attacking attorneys. I'll leave it my you, gentle reader, to draw you own conclusions.
