Couldn't Pass This Up

A giraffe got hit by lightning. I know it's not funny, but it does make for an interesting observation about what sometimes happens when you stand out in the crowd. I bet his neighbors were happy he was the tall one.

And a cruise ship caught on fire, stranding 4500 people. Not funny at all, this is one of my big fears, that some Titanic-type disaster would happen out in the ocean beyond the reach of help. Fortunately it all worked out well for them so far.

Another person is missing in the search for Noah's Ark. At some point in time, you're going to have to figure that God doesn't want his boat found. Anyhow, I hope they find him and he turns out to be ok, and the sooner the better.


Lastly, and the source of the feature picture today, they finally collided lead ions in the search for what exactly happened during the supposed "big bang". I bet if you found the Ark, you could get that answered for you too. Don't you wonder what they might plan to explain the random acceleration or creation of these elements which then created the world? Long shot.
