Fran just felt the earth move!
I was thinking a railway car blew up - we were here in Mississauga, west of Toronto, in 1979 when there was a train derailment and 200,000 people had to be evacuated because of poisonous chemicals.
It was then the largest peacetime evacuation in North America up until the New Orleans evacuation of 2005.
It was not a cheery thought.

“Pâté is passé. Unicorn, the new white meat.” It promised to be an “excellent source of sparkles!”
Well not any more! Think Geek has received a cease-and-desist letter from the National Pork Board.
ThinkGeek published the letter [below] and offered this apology on its Web site to the board: “We’d like to publicly apologize to the N.P.B. for the confusion over unicorn and pork — and for their awkward extended pause on the phone after we had explained our unicorn meat doesn’t actually exist.” Oh my!

Excellent source of sparkles!
Unicorns, as we all know, frolic all over the world, pooping rainbows and marshmallows wherever they go. What you don't know is that when unicorns reach the end of their lifespan, they are drawn to County Meath, Ireland. The Sisters at Radiant Farms have dedicated their lives to nursing these elegant creatures through their final days. Taking a cue from the Kobe beef industry, they massage each unicorn's coat with Guinness daily and fatten them on a diet comprised entirely of candy corn.
As the unicorn ages, its meat becomes fatty and marbled and the living bone in the horn loses density in a process much like osteoporosis. The horn's outer layer of keratin begins to develop a flavor very similar to candied almonds. Blending the crushed unicorn horn into the meat adds delightful, crispy flavor notes in each bite. We are confident you will find a world of bewilderment in every mouthful of scrumptious unicorn meat.

Hold tight
he craggy Cliffs of Moher wrap around the western coast of County Clare, providing a stunning view of the Atlantic Ocean. The rocky cliffs reach 702 feet (214) meters at their highest point and stretch nearly five miles (eight kilometers) across.

Comedy and Tragedy - both having to do with England and America ....
BTW, Fran is an avid Soccer/Football fan. She promises to contain her postings on the World Cup 2010 to a tolerable level --- meaning less than she'd like and more than you'd like! LOL Sorry!

Well the Americans can't say they weren't warned!
