Just What I Needed!





(Above: That's how I felt yesterday.)

Thanks for sending me weird news! You guys are the best. I thought I'd share some of the highlights . . .

Will Russia save the Earth from a killer asteroid? (Thanks, AB!)

The world's biggest cave has been found in Vietnam. (Thanks, CS!)

What's the strangest thing a passenger has ever left behind on a train? (Thanks, EK!)

Take a peek at the comments on the previous post and you'll find lots more! (Thanks Trickster Queen, Anonymous, Amanda, Anonymous Weekly Bloggers, Rileydog, CA, Lioness, Anna, Gamma, Nellie, and all the rest!)

P.S.: Kiki, I found your link both weird and hilarious! But given the content, it's probably best to keep it between the two of us!

P.S.S.: AmberStarGem, I'm looking forward to reading your story!

I might as well add my own recent discovery to the list. Two NY high school students have identified a new (and extra disgusting) species of cockroach! Check it out here.

The only interesting thing I could find on the news was some guy who had a library book checked out for seventy years... Now, you know that there's nothing going on when THAT story makes TV.

Here's a question for everybody; How do they the jelly in the jelly doughnuts? (I do NOT know the answer!)

Im working on a travel project and I decided not visit the usual places: England, Japan, France, Hawaii, etc. And I found http://weirdplacestovisit.com/ Four words: Screaming Tunnel, Niagara Falls.

Cheers.

You welcome!!!! The antartica one probably wasn't the greatest though!!!! Top Gear alwAYs brightens my day!!! If you get BBC America then it's every Monday at 8 pm! Also girl with her head in the star. They use a needle to inject the jelly in the jelly doughnut!!!!

Rileydog said...

I have had a doughnut that was cooked in two parts then the bottom half was filled with jelly, then the top half was put on. Ugh, today in math I sat there for what seemed like FOREVER! It was even worse then a Monday!!

Oh, and you guys, I know that I posted this on yesterday's comments, but I'm starting a group of Irregulars in WA and if you guys have any tips then let me know!

A dead octopus? I mean, really, how would you get in that situation?

*Ring* *Ring*

Hello?

Oh, hey Bill.

Yeah, I'm still in New York.

It's pretty cool actually. You can buy all sorts of stuff here.

Yeah, I got it. Took me forever, though.

Don't worry, I'm on my way to the airport as we speak.

In a taxi.

So, get the lab set up because I want a sample from this octopus as soon as... Oh crud! I left it on the subway!
