Fascinating. If you want to read more, head over to geology.com where there are pictures and some BBC Nature clips that feature the survivors and reconstruct the event.
That's good but the mysterious load of "S"less red skittles that were headed to farm as cattle feed but were found dumped on a road in Wisconsin is better!
Hmm. . . Inaccessible to the public you say. You really think that's it? Only The Book of Secrets can confirm or deny this story. The truth is out there.
First time I voted just show me the results. I’m having a hard time maintaining interest, especially after last week’s hour and half snoozer. I’m familiar with the comic and I get it, but I’m more interested in a group of humans banded together to fight zombies in a dystopian future than groups of humans banded together to fight other increasingly evil and malignant humans in a dystopian future. We pretty much have that now. The escapism piece of the entertainment is gone.
Grew up with it. Loved it. Watched it for years with my kids. The loved it. Finally one year I pointed out how screwed up it is. Now they won't watch it anymore.
That would be his real name. Excerpts from a follow-on article in the Portland Press Herald:
He didn’t intend to create a spectacle or get arrested, but was “interested in asking, ‘Why can’t you walk slowly in front of a car?’ ”
In 2009 he was drawn to the bulbous, red-and-green pepper logo that topped a Chili’s restaurant. One night, after borrowing more than 450 feet of extension cords from the Bennington College [Vermont] sculpture department, he and three friends stretched the extension cords from the nearby Home Depot, across four lanes of traffic and onto the roof of the restaurant, where they used power tools to remove the $8,000 chili pepper.
They got caught. (Imagine that)
Felony grand larceny charges were reduced to petty theft if they stayed out of trouble for two years. They also were ordered to write an essay about the waste of taxpayer resources, and to hold a car wash in the Chili’s parking lot.
The sentencing judge also gave Woodworth and his friends some advice. “Try not to do stupid things in the future of this magnitude. Smaller stupid things are better.”
Not quite buying this as what's used are standard ties designed for light duty. Would like to see it done with the zip ties most police use as they're 2-3 times wider AND with one's hands zipped behind their back.
Proof that the whole craft beer craze is out of control and approaching the "Bubble" stage. And at normal pricing approaching $12 bucks a six pack it can't be too soon.
RC Cola was my #1 cola of choice for years. I made the switch to Diet Rite when I was having weight issues. But I'm in Maine, which I often refer to as "the end of the food chain." Diet Rite disappeared from the shelves a year or so ago (as has Peter Pan Crunchy Peanut Butter).
I remember well the cyclamates scare from the 60s. My absolute favorite 'pop' from back then - Gatorade. My parents stopped that cold turkey. Done. If I remember correctly, Gatorade died too and was off the shelf for a number of years.

Thousands of Skittles end up on an icy road.
