Guatemalan Sinkhole

[Mookie4ever]

What do you do with a hole that big right in the middle of town? Fill it in somehow? Rosie O'Donnell, sure, but she's not available all the time. They would have to buy a mountain somewhere and truck it in over a period of years to fill that thing. Maybe just put some nice velvet ropes around it and charge tourists to look down it?

Convenient garbage dump and then some gravel and topsoil?

I hear Jack Shephard is heading down there ASAP to put the cork back in and stop the evil from escaping.

Yeah just fill it in with water and presto! the surrounding houses become lake front property.

That's great, it starts with a sinkhole
birds and snakes, an airplane.
Lenny Bruce is not afraid.

And oddly enough, it kind of looks like the eye of a hurricane.

Whenever Shannon get's overly upset about something I start singing that song.

I'm sure they handle it the same way MODOT fixes potholes here in St. Louis. They take a large piece of sheet metal and cover the hole then bolt down the corners. Viola, no more hole.

Keeps you awake, though.

Speaking of MODOT, my wife and I always complain about how dim the roads are in Missouri. They use the crappiest reflective paint imaginable and don't put in reflectors on the lane dividers like they do in Illinois. Except! On the new Page extension, they put in reflectors, because they didn't want to put in too many street lights; what with the bridge cutting right through scenic Creve Coeur Park and all. Anywho, the other day, the missus and I noticed that MODOT has since come back and manually removed each of the reflectors from the extension.

WTF kind of reasoning could they have to just remove reflectors from a new road???
