Ever read the theories about what exploded?
Alien nuke, alien spacecraft, John Tesh's career...

skysidhe · 08-16-2009, 07:33 PM

The theory stressed the most was it was an asteroid. The show barely touched on the alien thing nor did they say anything about the black hole or anti matter therory...OR John Tesh ?

I have not read them though. Any weird link you want to share?

I tend to go with the 'asteroid exploding before it hit Earth' theory.

I read one where it was an atomic bomb that was sent back in time by future scientists who had developed a time travel device. They were also responsible for the dinosaurs being extinct. That theory, not so much...

It seems the most logical theory.

Not very weird, but still funny:

Quote:

Naked man survives frozen fall

A naked man has suffered hypothermia and cuts after falling down a frozen embankment in Victoria's alpine region.

The 21-year-old Melbourne man fell 80 metres down the hill at Hotham Heights and slammed into some trees.

Police say it serves as a reminder that snow and alcohol do not mix.

Worst case of blue-balls ever seen...

At least it looks the the asshole responsible took care of his sentence and killed himself.

The veteran musician Bob Dylan has been speaking about getting back into the recording studio - but not for a new album.

Bob Dylan says he is thinking of going into satellite navigation.

The 68-year-old says he has been talking to car companies about becoming the voice of their GPS systems.

"I think it would be good if you're looking for directions and you heard my voice saying something like, 'take a left at the next street, no, a right, you know what, just go straight'," he said.

"I probably shouldn't do it because whichever way I go, I always end up in one place - on Lonely Avenue."

Now to get hoooooooome
Go down the rooooooaaaad
around the cuuuuuuurrvvve
be sure to sweeeeeeerrrvve
and you willl beeeeeee
as lost as meeeeeee
in the city liiiiiiights

I always thought Dylan sounded constipated when he sang.

Again, old news, weird:

From wikipedia

Quote:

Sigurd Eysteinsson (aka Sigurd the Mighty, ruled circa 875–92[1]) was the second Viking Earl of Orkney, who succeeded his brother Rognvald Eysteinsson. He was a leader in the Viking conquest of what is now northern Scotland. Bizarrely, he was killed by the severed head of one his enemies, Máel Brigte, who may have been mórmaer of Moray.[1] Sigurd strapped Máel Brigte's head to his saddle as a trophy of conquest, and as he rode, Máel Brigte's teeth grazed against Sigurd's leg. The wound became infected and Sigurd died.[2]

...

According to the Orkneyinga saga, towards the end of his reign, Sigurd challenged a native ruler, Máel Brigte the Bucktoothed, to a 40-man-a-side battle. Treacherously, Sigurd brought 80 men to the fight. Máel Brigte was defeated and beheaded. Sigurd strapped the head to his saddle as a trophy, but as Sigurd rode, Máel Brigte's buck-tooth scratched his leg. The leg became inflamed and infected, and as a result Sigurd died.

Believe it or not, I've heard of this guy. I had been reading this a couple of days ago.

A man who impersonated a Qantas engineer has had his jail sentence extended for providing fake character references.

Timothy McCormack was sentenced to at least two years jail for impersonating a QANTAS maintenance engineer.

Between 2006 and 2007, he signed off on a number of aircraft safety inspections.

Today, his sentence has been extended by at least eight months, for fabricating evidence and trying to pervert the course of justice.

The district court in Sydney heard that he provided fake references at his sentencing hearing, including one from a school counsellor and another from a football official.

Telling lies is bad. That was why you were in trouble to start with. Have you got that yet? Dumbarse.
