It's official - we're a nation of bedwetters

[Richard D]

Two people who sprinkled flour in a parking lot to mark a trail for their offbeat running club inadvertently caused a bioterrorism scare and now face a felony charge.

The sprinkled powder forced hundreds to evacuate an IKEA furniture store Thursday.

New Haven ophthalmologist Daniel Salchow, 36, and his sister, Dorothee, 31, who is visiting from Hamburg, Germany, were both charged with first-degree breach of peace, a felony.

Police fielded a call just before 5 p.m. that someone was sprinkling powder on the ground. The store was evacuated and remained closed the rest of the night. The incident prompted a massive response from police in New Haven and surrounding towns.

6. Breach of peace? I can think of some who have breached more than just peace.

They're sitting in the White House. Red alert. Yellow alert. In and around Tikrit. Saddam. Saddam. Saddam. And towers in a heap.

But I digress.

That is so wrong.

The chimp has ruined this country.
