Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What issue is the Beat article in?

Weird - I guess they're afraid of people downloading the whole thing at once.

I hate singing Happy Birthday. It always sounds like a funeral dirge, people sing very slowly and often off key.

A friend of mine from West Virginia use to sing what he swore was a genuine West Virginian version of Happy Birthday, to the tune of the Volga boat song:
