134 Ice Fishermen Rescued

Tuesday, February 10, 2009

After the ice sheet they were fishing on broke away from the shore this weekend, 134 men had to be rescued by helicopter from Lake Erie. What do you think?

Mel Dargan,
Customer Representative
"That's not fair. I live near Lake Erie and have been waiting for years to be rescued."

Catherine Ranney,
Document Control Clerk
"See, if that had been women ice-fishing instead of men, the testosterone levels involved with impulsive decision-making would not have prompted such an unwise choice. Also, women are fatter and thus more buoyant."

Joe Kring,
Turning Machinist
"My heart goes out to their families."
