Monger, the worst part of that story was how the accident attracted vampires from all over Transylvania. Having a penis explode is one thing, but having Dracula munch on it just adds insult to injury.

Well, in some ways he was lucky. At least he didn't have to go out a build skyscrapers, buy fancy cars and date strippers to compensate.

OOhhhhh... I loved my hike in the tent rocks. > no pun intended!! hehe <
Do you go there often little? Or was it just a one time thing? If you go back again, and are a rock hound like me, look all over the ground for Apache Tears. They are beautiful rocks and can bring a good bit of chump change if necessary. I spent 12 hours there one day and I got 14 lbs of Apache tears and made 700 bucks. I have a huge collection of them too.

The tent rocks are in New Mexico. To my understanding they were formed by a river that used to flow through the canyon. All of new mexico is a 'used to be ' when it comes to water. Heheh. Ever been there? It is a beautiful state. Very dry..but that makes the weather perfect. No humidity, in most places nobugs because it is cold enough to freeze and snow in the winter. I lived in Albq most of my life. I never knew what a flying cockroach was until I moved to this blasted state. >texas< Now I am surrounded with bugs , critters and fire ants! grrrr
Anyway , for reasons I dont know , the floor of the tent rock park is littered with raw apache tears. Some still white with sediment. They make for really wonderful finds. I found one that is 12 lbs. I have it sitting in my living room. Only a small portion of it is clean enough to see through , but that is what makes it beautiful. It is an all day treck if you want to find some really nice specimens. VERY worth the time!

My childhood was spent in NM cause i had an uncle who taught geo . I followed his footsteps and later came out and worked at Carlsbad, Sandia, Los Alamos, and did some geo mapping up north. I never even heard of the tent rocks . I have to go out there and visit . Is it a Nat Park ? do they allow collecting? usually theyll get nasty. I was picking up pottery shards at Bandolier once and got a really snotty lecture and felt like a fool . I couldnt tell the ranger what we were doing with the shards. (we were using energy dispersive x-ray and fission track dating to see how pieces were composed
I did get to keep one piece but never told the Sandia archeologists where we got it

Farmerman, they get snotty because everybody thinks they deserve just one shard, and as a result they disappear pretty fast. You should have contacted the Park Director, most archaeologist would give their eye teeth for that kind of analysis, for free no less, and you might have gotten a truck load.

we did make the data available to some agency and , because it was a DOE project, we got a letter back requesting whether we had approval to remove the artifact. We suddenly forgot who was the culprit. Perhaps Im still on a "watch" list. The hell of it was that about 3 years later, there was a rest station built right next to the trail where all the shards were. I hope they did a survey first.

Woohoo finally. A dick-thread. Now how long have I been waiting for this one on the board!

My contribution:

There once was a fellow named Merkin,
Who always was jerkin his gherkin.
Said his girlfriend, "Hey Merkin",
Stop jerkin your gherkin,
Your gherkin's for ferkin not jerkin".

Hope you enjoyed it.
