First, a Happy May Day Communist Holiday to Raul Castro, Hugo Chavez, whoever is runing China these days, and the University of California at Berkeley.

Now for the news. Recently in the Winston Salem Urinal they had two articles immediately over each other - an interesting juxtaposition.

The first was how the ice melt in the arctic may be putting pressure on the population of Narwhals - the wales with the unicorn tooth sticking out. Of course, it's all our fault.

The next article was how they decided to trap the seals and sea lions instead of shooting them in the Columbia River between Oregon and Washington. Why, you may ask? Well, it seems that these animals are eating aroung four percent of the chinook salmon run. Four f'kin percent! I would imagine the Bald Eagles and the Bears, after doing what they do in the woods, would take care of some of that percentage as well.

The catch to this story? (no pun intended for once) The very last sentence says that The Department of Fisheries has raised the quota for commercial fishermen by a third!
