Authorities are still trying to explain what happened last night.  According to several very reliable nursery rhyme witnesses, a cat was seen standing in the village square playing a fiddle with remarkable confidence. Just as the tune reached its liveliest note, a cow gathered speed, launched into the air, and sailed gracefully over the moon. A nearby little dog burst into laughter, rolling on the ground as if he had just witnessed the funniest thing imaginable. Before anyone could make sense of it all, a dish and a spoon quietly slipped away together, apparently deciding that adventure was more exciting than sitting on a kitchen shelf.
