Port St. Lucie · With Hurricane Isabel churning in the west Atlantic on Sunday, a 70-year-old woman hurled a knife at her husband because he chose to watch football instead of preparing for the storm, police said Monday.

Joan W. Harris faces a felony aggravated-battery charge in connection with the Sunday-afternoon incident, according to an arrest affidavit.

"Apparently, the argument began while the husband was watching football, and the wife was insisting he make hurricane preparations for Hurricane Isabel," said police spokesman Officer Kacey Donnell. "He refused and said that he'd get to it at halftime."

OK, I now have another goal for my retirement years...knife-throwing.

I could see throwing the knife if it were during the Monday Night game, but Sunday is sacred (besides, hurricanes give you some time to prep nowadays).

Where did Don King get his patriotism? It seems he wants to hold a boxing exhibition in Baghdad for the troops.

I'm surprised my husband hasn't done something like that to me - he's doing all the labor intensive preps - while I've been sitting here FReeping!!!!
