Man arrested for stealing glacial ice. “A man was arrested in Chile for allegedly stealing more than 5 tons of ice from the Jorge Montt Glacier to sell for use in cocktails, police say. Police intercepted a refrigerated truck Friday with more than $6,100 worth of ice.” What?! There’s still glacial ice?! I’ll take mine shaken, not stirred.

Wasting away again in Margaritaville.........
Now we know the real reason the glaciers are receding. Tell AlGored that global warming isn't the problem, it's frozen Margaritas!
New idea for a business:
Step 1: Buy a bunch of refrigerators
Step 2: Modify them to freeze the water you fill them up with
Step 3: Drive to city with fancy labels that say "Glacial Ice"
Step 4: Profit and repeat.
Damn if only I had this whole thing figured out before the whole "Spring Water" fad came around I'd be a millionaire.
Who did he steal it FROM? Did the glacier complain he was robbed?
Exactly what I was thinking--it's essentially ice on a mountain!!!!!
And WHO is it who is able to pay for glacial ice in their expensive drinks? Why, the rich, of course! Think about all the ironies there.
Probably selling the ice to the fops at the UN to keep their polar bear steaks cool until they're ready to grill 'em on the coal-fired barbeque.
They must have some huge cocktails in Chile.
