Van Damme's Lion Heart

Fifty-years-old is quite the milestone when it comes to birthdays. Just ask Jean Claude Van Damme. He recently turned fifty and decided to celebrate with . . . a heart attack! Supposedly.

What do you think of when you hear the words “Devil” and “lake?” It is a rare combination, but it seems for a smaller town in North Dakota, fate has chosen Satan’s pisser.

This one is indeed acting Hellish recently, for it has been flooding and condemning homes in the community. Where is Noah’s Ark when you need it?
