It's a sad comment on the times we live in when the actions of an idiot, such as the alleged culprit Homer J. Simpson, can make national news. Perhaps, "Homer" had just consumed too much "Duff" beer ... or, was it a saboteur from "Capital City?" Ever notice how any national news from Oregon is always weird, off-beat or otherwise embarrassing? Tonya Harding ... Bob Packwood scandal ... Rajneeshees [the original US Bio-terrorists!] ... and so on.

Sounds like someone was pissed off at the town of Springfield... Next thing you know, they will be looking for a "Homer J. Simpson" as a suspect.
