BERLIN (AP) — An entire troupe of performing fleas has fallen victim to the freezing temperatures currently gripping Germany.

Flea circus director Robert Birk says he was shocked to find all of his 300 fleas dead inside their transport box Wednesday morning.
The circus immediately scrambled to find and train a new batch so it could fulfill its engagements at an open-air fair in the western town of Mechernich-Kommern.

Shouldn't be too hard to find replacements, you wouldn't think. I mean how much "training" could actually be involved with a parasite. :laughing7:

VERY slow "News-day", indeed!

I think infowars will pick up the story and blame Obama for the weather and the "socialists" for the living condition of the fleas. Unnamed sources will confirm the ongoing flea genocide with unconfirmed reports of FLEAMA camps being set up around the world!!
