al-Qaeda in...................ShopKo???

From today's Moscow-Pullman Daily News:
Pullman Police

Tuesday


11:58 a.m. - Officers received an anonymous letter outlining a suspicious conversation overheard sometime at ShopKo regarding bombs and planes. Police are looking into the matter, though they don't have much to go on.
I'm not sure, but I doubt the first place that the FBI would be listening for terrorist "chatter" would be in the aisles of the Pullman ShopKo...

I Think We've All Been There


This is why I love the Whitman County Gazette. In today's issue, it is reported:
‘Domestic’ turns out to be computer rage

The sheriff’s office at 4:30 p.m. Monday received a report of a possible domestic violence incident in Oakesdale. A neighbor reported hearing sounds of a woman’s screams coming from a residence. Officers responded and the woman who answered the door said she had been screaming at her computer.
