Manhole Cover Thieves On The Loose
"(AP) With the price of scrap iron up, thieves have turned to pilfering manhole covers in several Ohio cities.

Akron, Columbus and Dayton say dozens of manhole covers and sewer grates have been disappearing, leaving gaping holes up to 20 feet deep in streets.

The thefts are costing the cities thousands of dollars and raising safety concerns."

3. Lay off 'em.
Hey, a missing manhole cover never hurt anyone. Besides, everyone with a fully functioning brain knows the CIA uses sewers to distribute mind control signals.

5. Yes they do.
It's so simple. The mind control waves go from the sewers to your toilet. And when you're sitting on the toilet, your sphincter absorbs the mind control rays. Duh.
