Ladies and Gentlemen;
See a weather phenomena from 2 weeks ago. I've never in my life heard or seen such a thing.
Apparently this is true as it is on the National Weather Service site. Give it time to load, it's worth
being amazed. I put this on the tall tales heading... because it is fantastic, yet true.

HaHaHa!!! The gods are holding a "free for all" bowling event!!!!! That's a VERY odd thing to see!
Or, the latest shipment of toilet paper for the "Abominable Snowmen" (Yeti).

Thats pretty cool. I'm guessing it doesn't snow there that much.

No, they get plenty of snow, about 50" a year.. A lot more than the average 0" per year around here...
