Cuts to the military code named "Operation Cliff": Tales From Normal, Mn.: FICTION

Just got the text today from the politicos of Normal, Mn. that the town gurus have decided to describe the cutbacks coming for the military as a "cliff" in order to emphasize how disasterous they will be for all warrior type folks. One of the alternative words that they did consider using was "peace" but when they realized that "Operation Peace" would not be desired by warrior types, they decided to use the word "cliff" instead.
