Oddball: Squirrel in toilet surprises woman and CNN surprise

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

The two toilet incidents are unrelated, but for the toilets involved. You must see the CNN coverage to appreciate the stoic demeanor of the announcer in the face of the unexplained and unrelated material rolling across the screen. Likewise, you must see the number of police officers who arrived, and packed into the tiny bathroom to rescue the lady with the mysterious moving object in her bowl.

As a veteran of the holding pattern that 911 operators sometimes inflict on the panicked, I’ve surmised that the sure-fire way to get a large and immediate police presence is to A. Tell them you have a mysterious moving object in your bowl, and you’re feeling bullied by it. B. Complain that the darned neighbor’s daughter is sunbathing in the clothesless once again. Novelty or Nudity, and if you combine both – you’ll get the Fire Department too.
