    Local newspaper is barely covering it.  It shows up in their blotter as "Small bomb found at Grand Chute PP".

    Instead the main lead today is the fact that Frontier Airlines is dropping the in-flight cookie (BAAASTARDS!), the GOP primary tomorrow, and M&I being sued for $1B in a ponzi scheme.

    ETA: And the article on the explosion is right below "Pirate Bar employee subdues burglar with sword". Crying

  • That's awful - I'm glad there were no injuries or serious damage.

  • I will probably get kicked off the board, but I really am laughing that the lead story pertains to getting rid of an airline cookie.

  • Yikes. Glad that no one was hurt and that there wasn't substantial damage.

    Nothing says 'pro-life' like bombing a place that provides abortions.

    Dude, those cookies were one of two reasons you flew Midwest Express/Midwest Airlines.  That and the two-across leather seating thru the whole plane.  They bake the cookies on the flight, so they're all warm and gooey when they hand them out.  They got rid of the awesome seating a couple years back (along with the actual china and silverware that came with meals. no joke) but kept the cookies.

    Then Frontier bought them.  Now the cookies are gone and, instead, if you happen to be one of their elite club members, you have the ability to buy animal crackers or goldfish.  But the rest of the poor bastards who aren't Elite Club members get NOTHING and you will LIKE IT.

    I may or may not be one of those people who are pissed and vowing to never fly Frontier again. Embarrassed

     

    Ahem.
