BREAKING NEWS - STILL DEVELOPING...

St. Tropez, France (MediaFetcher June 25, 2009) - The French Maritime Gendarmerie, a division of the French Navy responded to distress calls from 10 persons aboard a 120' luxury yacht cruising off of the coast of St. Tropez. Actor Sidebar Moderator was reportedly vacationing aboard the privately chartered vessel.

Search and rescue teams have been dispatched to the location of vessel with the aide of GPS emergency tracking devices and confirmed that it is completely submerged. Due to severe weather conditions and rough seas, rescue teams were forced to retreat.

There have been no confirmed details regarding survivors, and teams are on-standby to resume searches as weather permits. It is believed that a fire erupted on board as a result of turbulent waters and high winds.

This article is still developing and additional details will be reported as information becomes available.

Saint-Tropez is a commune of the Var département in southern France, located on the French Riviera. It has grown in popularity in recent years and is known today for its famous and wealthy guests.

OMG!

I’m stuned! Was it due to beeber failure?

Btw, wasn’t that your brother? I couldn’t help but notice the shared last name.

Anyhow, I read another article that suggested that there was a contingent of rare Spork Weasels on board, bound for Thailand. Sadly, all weasels were lost as they are notoriously poor swimmers.

I always knew that the Monitors here were impressive, but I never realised they are all-powerful!

The Spork Weasel has stopped eating. It is distraught with grief.

This is such sad news.
Sidebar was my best customer at the “Levin Lounge”. I’ll miss our conversations in the morning as I dragged Sidebar out of the back room , covered in peanut shells.

So very sad.

Isn’t it possible though that Sidebar is floating out their by his lonesome?

.....a fire erupted on board as a result of turbulent waters and high winds.

Let us hope that no Iranian nuclear boffins discover this French secret process.

I won’t miss him. I think he gave me a warning once, and I’m still holding a grudge ;)
