You’re out for a nice cruise on the lake. You motor along enjoying the fine weather. Suddenly you are struck in the head by 100 pounds of frightened carp.
Kind of spoils the day, doesn’t it? Well, it may happen to the Great Lakes. Non-native carp species are moving up the Mississippi River toward the Great Lakes.
Apparently, the fish were being farmed in Arkansas and escaped when flooding occurred. What in the world would anybody farm carp for?
I’ve heard of turning the other cheek before, but this is a new twist.
“A man attempting to walk the length of Britain wearing nothing but a hat,
boots and a rucksack completed his marathon trek and celebrated by putting his
clothes back.”
“Gough and his partner, 34-year-old hairdresser Melanie Roberts, completed the
last 20 miles of their 874-mile (1,363-kilometre) walk from Land’s End,
southwest England in temperatures of about five degrees celsius (41 degrees
Fahrenheit).”
That’s kind of chilly to be walking around in your birthday suit. This is his second naked ramble, by the way. He’s been arrested several times.
