The power went off today for a couple hours due to the stormy conditions in Fresno, Ca. (more than 30 spots in Fresno county reported downed wires at one point) and I broke out my battery operated radio to catch the scoop on the poop, so to speak.
Paul Harvey's "The rest of the story" was on and I decided a chuckle was in order. Even he laughed at this one. Seems someone in the Census Bureau pulled a fast one concerning a lake in Washington state.
Beavis lake was the target of the prankster who changed the name on official census records to Butthead lake. No one confessed to the Federal crime (falsifying government records) and no suspects were named.
God bless our troops wherever they may be.
And for the record, I second your God Bless the troops.
bored huh? :)
Not the lake, It should have been a mountain or butte that was changed to Butthead.
