Forget Those Tsunami People--Bring on the Fireworks!

Hey, remember that one time that the city of Meadow Lake in Canada told the Red Cross they wanted their $30,000 donation back?

Initially Meadow Lake, pop. 5,000, wanted the $30,000 to go to help tsunami victims, but then their city council did a lot of coughing and recanting and said the measure to make the donation had passed "accidentally."

And where will they allocate the $30,000 once they get it back? Reportedly the funds will be earmarked for their fabulous Canadian centennial fireworks display.
