Xanthippa's Chamberpot

Both have been siezed from smugglers in Scandinavia this week.

Yes, it is hard to believe…

The ‘Patriot’ missiles were found in Finland:

“The Finnish authorities have impounded an Isle of Man-flagged ship bound for China with undeclared missiles and explosives, officials say.”

Over in Norway, where the government may fall over the butter shortage, they have caught butter smugglers:

“The two men, who snuck into the country from Sweden, were arrested with about 550 lbs of butter divided into 18-ounce packets, the Norwegian daily newspaper Adresseavisen reported.”

So, how can a country encounter such a catastrophic shortage of butter?

“Authorities at Norway’s butter monopoly blame the shortage on bad weather…”

Ah, ‘butter monopoly’… Say no more!
