Mayor Gets Pooped On!
A dog-loving California mayor has resigned from office because of PoopGate — yes, he was busted on security camera for throwing his dog’s poop onto a neighbor’s yard, presumably because he didn’t warm to the neighbor’s aggressive “No Dog Poop” sign.
On a related note, HuffPo published a fun batch of Dog Poop Signs From Around the World slideshow for everyone’s enjoyment. Hmmm, I smell a childrens book coming soon! (HuffPo)
