I was sitting in the staff room this morning with two other people (both talking to me) and one of them read out this story from the paper...

Domesticated chimp is missing in California forest

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A 42-year-old chimpanzee who is toilet-trained and can eat with a knife and fork is believed to be at large in a Southern California forest after escaping his cage.

The story itself is quite bizarre, but it's the information given in the first two lines that really baffled us. The chimp is lost, but why do they feel the need to tell us he is toilet trained?
"I think it is getting itself lost trying to find a toilet" I said! "It may really need to go! Damn there is never a toilet when you need one."
"At least you could catch it easily" I said
"How?"
"Just lower a portaloo into the forest. It will be so relieved, rush in and then you can lift it out! Da-Dah!"
The conversation then went on to how other papers would title the story. My favourite was Zoo loses Loo User
Ho Hum- today is marked down as a happy staff room day
