Police in Missoula, Montana, are requesting a quarter-million dollar grant from the Department of Homeland Security so they can buy a "mobile command unit" -- an RV fitted out with communications equipment and computers and stuff -- that will be used, among other missions, to keep an eye on this year's annual

Guys, you can't take this lightly. As someone who has been brought to more than one Grateful Dead concert against their will, I know how horrible these kinds of things can be. Oh sure, hippies seem nice, with all of their peace and love and all, but believe me, there is a dark underbelly. You may be prepared for the drum circles, but no one expects the horror of the Jam Band. We are talking hour upon hour of pointless melodies, scales and endless drum solos that hint of recognizable tunes but are actually designed to destroy both your brain cells and your will to live.
