Not satisfied to let British Columbia have all the foot-related gruesome fun, someone decided to place sharpened metal spikes at the bottom of Green Lake. More than three dozen machine-sharpened, two- to three-foot-long metal spikes were discovered Sunday night, placed on the lake bottom around the boating center.

Another severed human foot has washed ashore on an island in British Columbia. Surprisingly, "severed human foot" isn't the most important part of that first sentence..."another" is. Another, as in this is not the first severed human foot to wash ashore in B.C. In fact, it is the fourth severed foot that has been found since September.

For those of you that like a little funk in your beer, the Brouwer's Cafe Sour Beer Festival kicks off tomorrow. Now, sour beer definitely is not for everyone. Okay, sour beer isn't for most people. Even the hardest of beer geeks likely said, "What the hell was THAT?" after having their first taste of a sour treat. One Seattlest recently described the Russian River Deviation (Bottleworks Anniversary beer) as tasting of human sweat,......
