Man Survives Second Lightning Strike

0 comments
If you want to win the lottery, go hang out with this guy....

Don Frick was struck by lightning in 1980 while he was driving a tractor-trailer when the vehicle's antenna was struck by lightning. Then, 27 years to the day, he was struck by lightning again while attending an outdoor concert. The strike knocked him out, but when he awoke, he was fine. He's definitely one lucky man. To read the complete story, please go to this page on Gimundo.com.

Make it a great day and stay inside if it's lightning Don...the third time might not be the charm.

Dog and Monkey are Best Friends

0 comments
This is a cool video. There's no sound because it's just the raw footage with no reporter's commentary.

Here's the story, "When severe flood waters hit northern Mozambique in 2002, causing misery and extensive damage to property and crops, many animals were left to fend for themselves. But villagers in Caia witnessed a bizarre friendship between a dog and a monkey.

A skinny dog emerged from the bush with a tiny monkey clinging to its back.

The villagers have named the pair Billy and Kiko, and they've been inseparable ever since."

Colossal Squid Caught Off Antarctica

0 comments
From the Discovery Channel -- "A fishing crew has caught a colossal squid that could weigh a half-ton and prove to be the biggest specimen ever landed, a fisheries official said Thursday.

The squid, weighing an estimated 990 lbs and about 39 feet long, took two hours to land in Antarctic waters, New Zealand Fisheries Minister Jim Anderton said."

"I can assure you that this is going to draw phenomenal interest. It is truly amazing," said Dr. Steve O'Shea, a squid expert at the Auckland University of Technology. If calamari rings were made from the squid they would be the size of tractor tires, he added." To read the complete article, please go to this page on the Discovery Channel's website.

Wow. That's one big plate of calamari!
