Thank goodness for the Humboldt brain trust

Because when it comes to gunning down massive boars, the relevance to Humboldt County cannot be overstated.

And when President Bush and his war team think al-Qaida, you know it's the ER they turn to first.

Then again, given the owners' proclivity for political donations and resulting influence, perhaps the ER shows up on the porch of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue just as it does the 22,000 lawns closer to home.

Priceless.
