Misoverheard this Morning.

As I was getting coffee this morning the TV was saying:

... beautiful specimen, four-feet high with bright orange boobs.

Seeing as the picture on the set (of course I looked!) was a plant, I can only imagine that the last word they said was actually 'blooms',

I have a better one. You only need misinterpret, not hear incorrectly:

"The research focused on great tits in ten major European cities, including London, Paris, Amsterdam and Prague, and compared them to forest-dwellers."

The caption is even better: "There are an estimated 1.7 million great tit pairs in the UK."

That reminds me of a show about the Viennese and their Balls.
