I'm a the leader of a Horde of Rabid Penguins and I'm taking over the world. I run everything from a secret base under the waters of Lake Bodom, Finland. The base has a lot of tunnels that run underground under the lake but they've sprung a few leaks and I'm worried about cave-ins.
How should I reinforce these tunnels so they don't cave in?

First protect your penguin if you do have a cave it they may get hurt. Then go to the home depot in delaware ask for the store manager. When he i dentifies himself repeat theses secrete words to him. I am a underground operative then with your right hand presented shake his hand three times. while winkinking with your left eye to the beat and rhythm of the song ala ala labumba. After releasing his hand you must move your left foot foreward 3 1/2 foot and your right foot backward the same distance then look up and say the word ouch. This will indicate to the manager that you are in fact a horde of rabid penguin leader and he will accompany you to the warehouse about 2 miles from that location were the whole department deals and supplies only materials need to make repaires to tunnels that run under and about Lake Bodom in Findland. He will introduce you to the lead engineer at that time who will take over at that piont. This problem is more common thn you may think. and he is your man
I hope this helps

I would get a tunnel boring machine (TBM) similar to the ones used to excavate the CHUNNEL. These machines automatically place precast concrete sections to reinforce the face of the tunnel and seal off water leakage. Be careful though, if you hit a crack in the geology you could get more than a little leakage.
Good luck, I think with a TBM and a couple hundred million dollars your project should go well. Word on the street is these guys are available to help manage your project:
Domenic Tringale, manager of facilities operations Robert Marino, Turnpike spokesman Thomas Farmer, director of personnel James Esposito and director of human resources Norman Chalupka all from the BIG DIG

Greetings Oh Most Fearless Leader, I too had planned on taking over the world. I have since decided to take over all of the air in the world instead. People create to many problems and air is much more co-operative. Rather than worry about the tunnels I suggest you simply buy one of my new flying saucers. This way once Earth is conquered you can move on to other planets as well. My newest model has all of the modern gadgets you would expect. Lasers, photon torpedoes, nuclear bombs etc, but my person favorite is the built in back massage in the Captain's chair. I figure you may as well conquer the world in comfort.

Contact Matt Amorello, the ex- head of the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority. He is an expert on leaky tunnels. Also, he appears to be quite a strange bird, himself.

Gas/Air pressure. The base can be secured within a bubble.
