Midwest Rainfall causes Dam to Break

Basically, a great big lake (man-made) busts it's dam straight out, cuts a 40-foot channel across a major highway (Sauk County HW A), and drains itself. I checked it out after work -- it's a lake turned mud-crater.

EDIT -
The dam didn't break -- an artificial wall was washed away.

I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

It means we get to insult joe.
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

God?
Sure, take the easy way out. God didn't pay my bills; God didn't study for me; God didn't stop it from raining; God didn't smite my enemies; God didn't hold that dam together. Blame someone else!
