I'm hoping that some of you, er, creative thinkers, can offer some insight.

Seriously, when someone does something this stupid, and causes the expenditure of significant public treasure, shouldn't he be taken into custody pending a psych eval? Or at least someone should ask him why.
He thought he was a squirrel. Looking for a place to hibernate.

I wonder if he got ants in his pants while he was in there for all those hours?

Wasn't the best played game I've ever seen, but you won't see one any more exciting.

Does anyone know how much it costs to get a whole truck repainted in a new color? I've always wanted a Red truck and its been rolling around in my head for a while. Maybe someone can give me sticker shock and make it go away.
