Juror Flirting With John Edwards
Obama's Pot-Smoking Detailed
A Canada goose that waddled through Denver for more than a month with an arrow impaled through its chest is a walking shish kebab no longer. Doctors safely removed the obstruction during an operation Thursday, The Denver Post reports.

A wounded Canada goose with an arrow piercing its side was successfully operated upon by bird specialist Jerry LaBonde.
"He is doing great," LaBonde said following the procedure.
Luckily, the arrow did not pierce any of the creature's vital organs.
The elusive goose was first seen hobbling through Denver's Washington Park on Feb. 12, but just a week later it was spotted roughly three miles down the road. That's where a volunteer with Denver's Wildbird Rehabilitation Center made the capture using a string foot snare.
But even with a skewer through its feathers, this feisty goose was no easy catch.
"We knew where she was for several weeks, but it was hard to catch her with all the people around," volunteer Gabriele Braunschweiger told KWGN Denver. "Everyone tried to catch her and that made her skittish."
"He is a very smart goose," volunteer Gabrielle Wimers told the Post. "He outsmarted everybody for a month."
The goose is on antibiotics and will be released into the wild in the coming days.
