Vampire Peacock Gains Immortalilty



Some stories just down die!  Just a few weeks ago we reported on the crazed vampire peacock of Staten Island.  Stomped -- or so we thought -- into oblivion by a quick-thinking Burger King employee.  Well, word from Roadside America is that the dastardly fowl has gained a second life in a hand-made memorial to the feathered undead --a Vampire Peacock memorial -- which will likely be displayed at it's own case in the said Burger King come September.  Roadside quotes the former Staten Islander, Charles Johnson, as explaining "I've taken so much flack down here from people who don't like New Yorkers, and then this happened and I said, 'I have to correct the image of Staten Island'."
