A couple of interesting items on the Harper's web-site:
In Santa Ana, California, a homeless man was arrested after he told five boys he would cast them in a television
commercial, then licked their feet.
About 2,000 gallons of Sunny D concentrate leaked into a river in England, killing fish and turning the water bright yellow.
A South African ice cream company sprayed a ton of ammonia gas into the atmosphere, sending 100 schoolchildren to the hospital; afterwards, the company held an assembly for some of the children and gave them free ice cream. "They've been reading words like 'toxic' and 'poisonous' and obviously got quite a fright," said an engineer. "We want to enlighten them about how ammonia can be used constructively."

Hey how about those Oilers? I almost thought we were having another Meltdown in L.A., but it turned out all right in the end.
