I wonder if Gramps hangs out with the Medieval-speaking drunk werewolf.

Sloppy reporting. They didn't even specify which game of cards.

Unbelievable! This is the third story in two weeks from Fond du Lac Wisconsin. The first had to do with two neighbors getting in a fight over snow shovelling. The next had to do with a guy who thought he was a werewolf, and now we have this gem about a kid calling 9/11.

Damn, Swangirl, you beat me to it!
It's the cold, right? That's what makes Wisconsinites crazy?

I'm willing to bet that the fight was over the rules in Uno.

It's the insane Canadian weed coming across the border; obviously a plot to undermine our God-loving American way of life. Blame Canada.
Or it could be overexposure to methane...all those cows, you betcha.

Obviously this kid was just kind of clueless but...I wonder if kids are just kind of given the wrong idea about 911. We went to our local firehouse safety day and the guy telling the kids about 911 said you call "if your mom or dad is sick or won't wake up." To the average kid that might mean when Mom has the flu or Dad says "No, I'm not getting up yet, it's barely dawn" and so, strictly speaking, "won't wake up."

Oops, hit send too fast. The rest of my thought was that maybe this girl was told to call 911 "if someone was doing something bad."

When I was 7 my grandpa cheated while we played Old Maid. I shot him.

"This is the third story in two weeks from Fond du Lac Wisconsin."
This is also the place where that guy hit a seven-legged deer with dual sex organs, then ate it. So what can you expect about a place that eats mutant roadkill?

The American public should have called 911 after Bush's State of the Union speech about WMD's in 2003.

I call it the "Wisconsin Trifecta:"
Beer-n-cheese + Canadian Cannabis + Witch-titty cold = total insanity
