Two headlines from the one state in the Union that seems to be giving us the most bizarre news these days:

Llama Busts Loose In Florida, Subdued With Taser

and,

Tranquilizer used to capture Florida kangaroo on the run

Seriously, guys, what the heck is going on down there?

    We just can’t raise boas and pythons fast enough. Nor alligators or crocodiles. Snowbirds are absolutely no help as predators.

    You don’t want to get too close to a llama. They spit green slime–and they have a long trajectory.

    Boy. If that is how they treat llamas and kangaroos down there, I wonder what they do to Democrats?

    15% Los Angeles + 15% New York City + 70% Alabama = 100% Florida.
