my own favorite:

9. One small distillery - Bruichladdich, on the island of Islay - was
recently under surveillance on suspicion of producing WMD. Whiskies of
mass destruction? Not quite. The distillery managers decided to install
webcams at their site to show internet surfers their traditional
production processes. The US defence threat reduction agency took a peek
and thought the whole thing looked dodgy - and suddenly Islay was on
Washington's list as a potential terrorist threat. The Scotsman has the
full story. http://www.thescotsman.co.uk/index.cfm?id=1070422003

and my favorite quote:
Mr Reynier added: "We produce 16,000 cases a year, a weapon of mass
drunkenness."
