Fun facts of the day
Jul. 24th, 2008 05:27 pmIn 1814, a flood of beer from a burst vat rushed through the streets of London, flooding basements, collapsing houses, and killing nine people. Eight of the deaths were from drowning, the other from alcohol poisoning as a brave soul tried to save the street by drinking up all the beer. No, really. That happened.
Not to be outdone, Boston had its own flood of unlikely substances in 1919, when a molasses tank burst. The molasses reputedly reached speeds of 35 mph, which is pretty fast, considering the reputation of molasses. The molasses killed 21, injured another 150, and caused vast amounts of damage, including lifting a MBTA train off its tracks and carrying it along the street. No, really. That happened, too.
You just don't get that class of disaster anymore.

Now why can't I get an aviator jacket that fits that well in real life? I ask you. In other news, I just got a haircut, and I'm sad to say that my hair pretty much does look like that now. They cut off my Aeon Flux pointy bits in the front!!!! I mean, you go in, you say, "Short in the back and leave the long bits in front the longest part, please", and then, WHACK. I mean, we did eventually, on the third pass, get to short in the back, but by then, my pointy bits were gone.
I'm pretty sure those were the seat of my superpowers. I am such a sad, sad thing.

It's a city-building game in which your city grows and changes based on how many people click the site. I want to see what happens to it. It's science! Yay!
Okay, it's not really science. *hangs head*
EDIT: Or, improve my industry.
