Agreed and seconded. It just leaves me wondering what the islamofascists holed up in iran would say if they even catch wind of it...

Sandwiches Rescued In 2-Vehicle Crash

Sandwiches Rescued In 2-Vehicle Crash

Fri Nov 10, 10:35 AM ET



Several sandwiches escaped harm when they were involved in a two-vehicle crash on Friday, KPRC Local 2 reported.

Houston police said an Antone's sandwich truck rear-ended a car on the Northwest Freeway near Gessner Drive at about 3:15 a.m.

Officials said a woman stopped her vehicle in a moving lane of the freeway when she thought she had a flat tire. The sandwich truck ended up slamming into the back of her car.

Several po-boys in the sandwich truck flew around inside. A tow truck driver and the sandwich truck driver were able to salvage all of the sandwiches.

Police said the woman's car did not have a flat tire before the crash. She was ticketed for causing the accident and stopping in a moving lane.

No one was seriously injured.

*sigh* Do you know how many times this sort of thing has come up? It's not an organised religion, and not even a religion at all for some of us (like me) so it's really hard to make people take any of us seriously.

It's good to know we finally defeated world hunger. But I guess some people have to complain about EVERYthing.

Great headline from CNN.com today:

Iranian TV Shows Captured UK Troops

Those must be some amazing TV shows. Our shows here in the US barely capture one's imagination, much less some actual combat troops!
