The only thing we have to fear...

No mention of the Canadian Commandos in this story, which is probably on purpose. But we all know.

Terrorists Take Over Lake Michigan Cruise Ship.

And msnbc thought it was being toungue-in-cheek when they called it "the terrorist hot spot that is the Great Lakes."

Bad Idea

So the Corporal decides he wants to go out and walk on the beach after the 20 feet of snow we've had over the past month. At least he was smart enuff not to lead. All of a sudden, what looked like solid ground turned out to be......a sinkhole of slushy ice! Now Fungster's all wet. Or at least, his right foot was. Not to be outdone, Corporal went over the ridge separating the beach sand from the white mounds of who knows what. Slosh! Corporal went in deeper than the Fungster did. Now both are drying off and warming up. So be warned - don't go walking out on the beach after 20 feet of snow.

Now back to preparing to watch my team blitz Smiff's...
