Forget swine flu. There's a new pig going viral, and her name is Gwendolyn.

The potbellied pig, about 20 years old, has been a welcome resident of Berwyn Heights nearly her entire life, says her owner, Pat Brown. But after Prince George's County inspected Brown's house recently, it was determined that the porker violated the zoning code and had to go.

The zoning laws at times do seem ludicrous from the common man's point of view. Some supposed learned desk jocky dictates what looks good on paper.
Nevermind, matters of the heart.

Hope she wins her case.

This little(figure of speech) piggy stayed home....
