BUCHAREST - An old man who must have very poor eyesight

confused his penis for a chicken's neck. He cut it off and

his dog promptly rushed over and ate it, the state Rompres

news agency said Monday. Constantin Mocanu, 67, hurried out

into his yard in his underwear to kill a noisy chicken that

had been keeping him awake at night. "I confused it with the

chicken's neck," Mocanu, who was admitted to the emergency

hospital in Galati, was quoted as saying. "I cut it ... and

the dog rushed and ate it." The bleeding man was brought to

the ER in an ambulance, but doctors now say he is out of

danger. The chicken, however, might not be so safe when the

man returns home.

So, Shorty, trying to one-up the Darwin Awards? (Just kidding). Ain't it amazing what people will do? Like America's dumbest burglars.
