Hemlets are for the birds

You know the phrase, “He must be rolling over in his grave”? Well, Alfred Hitchcock must be laughing his butt off in his grave.

Workers at a Devon council have been issued crash helmets to protect them from the unfriendly seagulls who have taken to dive-bombing the workers attempting to gather weather data from the roof in Newton Abbot. The data is collected every day as part of standard weather forecasting and record-keeping procedures.

I just don’t get it. Sure, there are a lot of birds, and they can be nasty little buggers, but last time I checked, HUMANS were at the top of the food chain. Isn’t this exactly the reason that we evolved and invented deep fryers and mayonaisse?
