Good Grief!

We interrupt your usual morning coffee for the following news report:

Last night, our community suffered collateral damage from one of the oldest rivalries in recorded history. Obviously mistaking the entire DC area for a shadow of the Red Baron, Snoopy took arms against the perceived enemy and engaged in what can only be described as "fierce battle." Though there were no eye witnesses, the aftermath indicates that the canine hero bolted a snow-cone maker onto the bottom of the plane and blanketed the entire area in unflavored slush. The impact of the onslaught was impressive, causing government offices to open on a 2-hour delay. We will continue to follow this story closely, as sources familiar with the longstanding feud between beagle and baron suggest that the next stage of battle could involve a downpouring of sticky flavored syrup.

And now back to your regularly scheduled program....
