Where's the Anchor?
Well, in grand 'ol La Crosse, Wisconsin, a 6-foot tall, 700 pound anchor has gone missing from the Naval Reservist Station. So what's stranger that a 700 pound anchor vanishing into mid air? Well, maybe the fact that's it's been missing possible since December, and they just noticed now!


Freakin' anchors!

Re: Where's the Anchor?
I find it odd that it's been missing for six months without any reactions.

Apparantly it's right near a heavy traffic area too, so go figure!
