crazy emus...i know that guy and his family actually, so seeing them on the news and then on yahoo for the world to see is pretty funny.

so my question is, has anything that happend in your town made the headlines nationaly or globaly like this, and if so, what was it?

this is just genuine curiosity here, im not saying a rogue emu is a huge deal or anything, this is just the first thing out of my tiny little town that i have ever seen on an international website...so it caught my eye.

oh i assure you, its a real picture. it was all over the news here an i talked to one of the people at walmart who saw the thing running around in the parking lot. emu's arent extinct, there are at least four emu farms near where i live.

idk, like i said, i just thought it was a silly story, and even sillier that it ended up on yahoo news....so it made me curious if anyone else has ever had a story from their home town show up somewhere the whole world could see.
