I never thought of Wisconsin as being progressive although that's in its history. But so is McCarthy. Go, Feingold, though.

Why grenades make poor paperweights:
Part of a teacher's hand was blown off when a 40 mm round the instructor used as a paperweight on his desk exploded in his classroom.
Robert Colla struck the round with an object Monday afternoon while teaching 20 to 25 students at the Ventura Adult Education Center on Valentine Road.
Part of Colla's right hand was severed and he suffered severe burns and minor shrapnel wounds to his forearms and torso, fire Capt. Tom Weinell said. No one else was injured.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I didn't know WI had a reputation for being liberal until I was a sophomore in college. And I grew up there. (Though Rock County is hardly a liberal bastion.)

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I think that has got to be a Darwin Awards honorable mention. I've heard of dumber, but they involve things like playing badminton with the same kinds of materials.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
It's now super super bright & clean outside.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I saw a sign on someone's lawn that read: THANK YOU RUSS FEINGOLD.
I thought that was pretty neat.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I did a google on 40mm rounds, and came up with this, among other links:
If fired into snow or mud, 40mm rounds may not hit hard enough to detonate. An undetonated round may explode when stepped on or driven over.
You gotta google, people.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I blame the people who fired the 40mm round into snow or mud....

Looks cool, but I'd still be nervous about putting a battery-powered light underwater with me.

Freaksnow update:
It is snowing again, only it looks like the flakes are going UP. Has time reversed itself?
