Angel >> Common sense It may be too late to save the tarred and feathered hide of Commodore Eric Lerhe, but some faith in mankind can be restored after former military colleagues came forward to offer Lerhe their support. The beleaguered navy commander was relieved of duty and had his portrait plastered across the front page of the Globe and Mail after voluntarily admitting to looking at "Penthouse-like" porn sites while off-duty, using his own Internet account but on a National Defence laptop. Never mind that there's a long navy tradition of a girl in every port, porn in one man's modem port is hardly cause for national concern.

Insect >> Pen hunting It's mighty frustrating when American game farmers get to rake in $10,000 a head killing captive elk while their Albertan counterparts watch glumly from across the fence. That's reason enough, apparently, for the Alberta Elk Association to beg for the legalization of dear and elk pen hunting. Cigar-chomping fat cats dish out the dough to stalk and kill domesticated prey, penned in an area of around one square kilometre or even less. Why should the Yanks get to round up all the big bucks? Faster redneck! Kill! Kill!
