This was a Fark headline last week, wasn’t it?

The British tabloids are usually experts at this with greats such as “zip me up before you go-go” when George Michael was arrested, and not forgetting the famous “Freddy Starr ate my hamster”!

Ha! I hadn’t head about it until now</a](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freddie_Starr">now</a)>.

Which leads to this great quote:

“I have never eaten or even nibbled a live hamster, gerbil, guinea pig, mouse, shrew, vole or any other small mammal.” Too bad Ozzy can’t say the same.

I don’t know. The outcome of the Coxhead case in the same Wiki article leaves some loose ends …
