"But wait!" says one. "Surely we cannot attempt burglary without a proper disguise!"

"You speak the truth," agreed the second. "Ski masks are necessary for this endeavor. Unfortunately, this is Iowa, [i]where it never snows[/i]. Where can we possibly find the necessary winter gear?"

"Fear not!" cries the first. "For I have on my person [i]two fake beards[/i] on account of our upcoming debut as Halloween Lumberjacks!"

"Such resourcefulness!" rejoices the second. "But even so, some enterprising soul may recognise my beautiful visage. I must further obscure it!"

"Ah yes," the first agrees, "your handsomeness is renowned the state over. It is imperative that we darken your fair countenance! But how?"

"Aha!" ejaculates the second, producing from his pocket a Sharpie of exceedingly black ink. "Our worries have come to an end!"[/size]

[quote name='Aaryanna's article']During questioning, the woman reportedly told police that her boss had been booked on the flight to Honduras, but she had caused him to be late for the flight.

[SIZE="1"]I actually remember reading about that last week and facepalming afterwards. I imagine she did indeed get fired, bomb hoaxes are pretty damn serious after all.
