Sounds like stuff like these doesn’t travel alone. Close on the heels of the $6,600 wall clock, here’s another jaw-dropping piece of design. A “chair” for $6,020; that is a block of 0.04″ thick steel that’s 39.3″ x 27.5″ x 29.5″ in dimension; that one “designs” by hitting with a hammer. One more time: You’re…

They say nobody was hurt, and nobody’s saying otherwise, so it must be true. T’was a really, really bad shake, though. Oh, well. Happy Halloween!!
A 5.6 earthquake on the eve of Halloween. No treats for you.

I jest you not. This is a real signboard, put up, presumably, by the transit / county authorities. No, it isn’t a defaced sign. It implies using the turnout as a quick stop while your spouse / significant other / anyone whom you would care enough to drop off at that public transit station, gets…
