(Riiiight: which of them was the one-armed man?)

The image the headline inspires is the best part.  The story itself is rather pathetic, really.  They cornered the guy in a bathroom and he came out swinging...his prosthesis.

I can just imagine Harrison Ford and David Janssen saying "It wasn't me, Your Honour, it was the one-armed man!"  :teddyr:

For me it goes more toward the Python-esque (mention Mounties and there I go):  Cleese and Chapman in their scarlet, ducking blows and assuring their superior,"Yes, sir, we have him disarmed"   :bouncegiggle:

The cops in charge will ask "Was he armed?" and the Mountie will say: [holds out arms] "These are legs?"  :wink:
