I think practical jokes are funny

I came across this today.  I know its from 2008, so it is a bit dated, but still it is pretty funny.

The headline from the SUN is priceless: "Creepy Gnome Back on the Prowl".

Fox News reported on it also, but their headline is as follows:

"Little Person Dressed as Gnome Caught on Video Stalking Streets of Argentina Town"

Basically, from what I gather, a little person in Argentina is dressing up in a pointed hat and scaring the locals so bad that they have to hospitalized. Let me repeat that...  scared the locals so much they had to be hospitalized. I find this incredibly funny. A little person, probably the most unintimidating individual ever, has scared the populace into seeking health care by just walking around dressed like a gnome.

Wee Man never scared people like that. Usually when he tries to scare people, he ends up in the ER.  This dude is pretty awesome. Also, there is something to be said here of superstition, and about how after hundreds of years of growth, advancement, and technology, human beings are still scared of the dark.
