How's that for a catchy title? It's kinda fun to know there's a place called Muskrat Falls.

Ok, there's no political value to this story at all. That I know of. However, I think there must be a very interesting back story as to why a German U-boat has been found sunk near Muskrat Falls, Canada. So, in case you missed this gem, here's a couple links to a plain old cool story that should appeal to all of us. Certainly, it's grist for a variety of interpretations. Sorry for the spam, but I bid happy casual reading to one and all.

Australia had Japanese midget subs in Sydney harbour.

There was one found off Nantucket this year, too. This one could prove to be a really interesting story. I've actually heard first hand accounts of those that landed on Long Island in the 40s, pretty interesting.

Yep, they mention a book that plays along the lines of Red October. Eh, pretty cool place to hide a sub, anyway.
