Interesting morning in the Hammer:

Quote:Police bomb squad on Burlington Lift Bridge
Last updated May 19 2006 09:42 AM EDT
CBC News


A police bomb squad unit is investigating a truck on the Burlington Lift Bridge after a man abandoned the vehicle just before 3 a.m. Friday, say Halton Regional Police.

Police said in a news release that they are "concerned that given the circumstances under which the truck was abandoned that a dangerous condition may exist."

The release also stated that Halton police called in the bomb squad in "an abundance of caution."

Lakeshore Road and Eastport Drive in the area of the Burlington Lift Bridge have been closed. Traffic is being rerouted onto the QEW and Skyway Bridge.

Police say the closure will last throughout the morning rush hour and may extend into the afternoon. 

How did everyone elses morning go? :lol:

Pretty good. Woke up, had breakfast watched tv.

Nothing too tough.

Or, and organized golf for Sunday.

Anybody wanna play Sunday morning. We need a fourth.
