I'm glad we finally have an Administration that takes this threat seriously

I'm sick of those uppity lighthouses towering over the Maine coastline.

You're just jealous that the tourists pay more attention to the lighthouses than to you. No matter how long you sit on your porch with your 'Mirth's Maniac Mansion Tours' sign no out-of-towners ever stop by to pay the modest fee.

Better than Bob's House of 'Staches tour? Unlikely.  :coolsmiley:

That tour gets a little hairy.
