I can't stop laughing about this:

Man eats corgi to protest fox killing

LONDON - A British performance artist ate part of a corgi -- the breed of Queen Elizabeth's favorite pet -- to protest the alleged mistreatment of animals by the royal family.

Mark McGowan set up a table on a London street Tuesday and dined on what he said was corgi meat in hopes of drawing attention to reports that Prince Philip, the queen's husband, had beaten a fox to death during a hunt. The protest was broadcast live on a radio program.

If I were the Queen you can bet the Earl Grey would have been streaming out of both nostrils.

No word on when the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals will sue McGowan for trampling on the rights of corgi chunks.
