| Someone *Kill* a Back-Hoe for me.....
I was watching the local (Philly) news last night, and
saw a story that needed to be shared.
[Atlantic County, NJ] While attempting to wreck
havoc on the world's telecommunications infrastructure,
a backhoe mistook a gas main as a fiber optic cable.
The evil yellow beast was destroyed in the resulting
fireball.
