Man menaces cops with didgeridoo | The Register A man was today sentenced to 180 hours’ community service for threatening police with a didgeridoo after shouting: “Come on then. I’ll have you,” in the traditional British style.

rofl. i love it. it’s just… so English (wrt to the “Come on then. I’ll have you” threat). and come on, you gotta love a guy who attacks another guy with a didgeridoo. i mean, that’s just awesome.

Upon leaving the court today, Jones said: “I had only just started to learn to play the didgeridoo too.”

this reminds me of my parents’ tenant (who lived in a townhouse we own and rented out in Cupertino) who used to be an Apple engineer, but went a little nuts after losing his job. we got a call one day from a neighbour who said there were 3 cop cars outside our townhouse, and that the tenant was threatening police with a weapon. turns out he was pointing his flute out the kitchen window.
