Apparently, Strasburg’s emus are shut down

Oh no! Steven Strasburg’s emus are missing in Arlington:

“When I did call animal control they seemed very surprised,” he said in an email. “I think one of the big reasons they didn’t ask about my name was that they were still processing the word ’emu’.”

“I’m willing to bet that after we hung up, they pulled up images of what an emu looks like.”

The mild-mannered Arlington man originally got Bertha and Ernie through Craigslist to kill the foxes that were killing the chickens he bought to kill the stinkbugs.

“They actually have a zero-tolerance policy for foxes,” he said.

What timing. I really hope that Stephen Strasburg is given a hard time about this by his Washington Nationals teammates.

And that the emus are found safe and returned.
