A good friend of mine once had a dream in which he shouted “Save the Snapple!”
I think he’ll appreciate this story – even though he doesn’t like beer.

Army
Joins Struggle to Save Beer

“MOSCOW (Reuters) – Russia has sent in the army to bolster a week-long struggle
to rescue 10 tons of beer trapped under Siberian ice, Itar-Tass news agency said
Tuesday. A lorry carrying the beer sank when trying to cross the frozen Irtysh river,
and a rescue team of six divers, 10 workers and a modified T-72 tank from the emergencies
ministry have so far failed to save the load.”

Whatcha gonna do? This rocks. 🙂

Ohio
Cops Add Twist to Booby-Trapped Car

“COLUMBUS, Ohio – Police have added a musical twist to the booby-trapped car
they leave out to entice would-be thieves. The city’s so-called ‘bait car’ is now rigged to play the theme from the
television show ‘Cops’ when officers remotely disable the engine and nab
the crooks.”

I’m trying to refrain from directly insulting Mrs. Shriver, but this is just an
awful picture.

Wow, this was really poorly thought out. How about having a getaway driver IN the
car?

Streakers
Watch As Their Car Is Stolen

“SPOKANE, Wash. – Three men who went streaking through a Denny’s restaurant
were chilled and chagrined when they spotted a thief drive off in their getaway
car, their clothes inside.”

It’s about time the FCC attempted to reign these people in.
