Message of the hour from userlame.com:
It took a while to surface, but it appears that a long-distance credit card
may have saved a U.S. Army unit from heavy casualties during the Grenada
military rescue/invasion. Major General David Nichols, Air Force ... said
the Army unit was in a house surrounded by Cuban forces. One soldier found
a telephone and, using his credit card, called Ft. Bragg, N.C., telling Army
officiers there of the perilous situation. The officers in turn called the
Air Force, which sent in gunships to scatter the Cubans and relieve the unit.

"Encouraged by a milk industry study that shows children drink more dairy when it comes in round plastic bottles, a growing number of schools are ditching those clumsy paper half-pint cartons many of us grew up with."
i'm mad. i fucking hated those cartons. i never drank my milk because it tasted like cardboard and the teacher would always yell at me. the opening of the cartoon would always get gross and soggy and it made me gag.
i am jealous of these children.

Bah! When I was a lad we had cartons and we
liked it dammit!
Nowadays these kids won't consume anything unless it comes in a bright plastic container and says '
EXTREME' at least 6 times on the label.
