Hey Honey, I Just Bought Something on Craigslist

Hey Honey, I Just Bought Something on Craigslist

Well, we’ve all bought something we shouldn’t have on Craigslist. A rusty bicycle. A seized table saw, that sort of thing. Maybe you were really brave and bought a 1976 Datsun B210 from a barn, with the rocker panels all rusted out.

Well, we’re all pikers compared to Christopher Wilson. He bought an abandoned German cruise ship off of Craigslist. I’m sure it went without saying, but I’ll bet the ad read “no swaps.”

More info here.

(Thanks to old friend Charles Schneider for sending that one along)

Never get out of the boat. Truer words were never spoken. I adhered to that advice because I didn’t know what was in the ocean. After seeing what’s actually in the ocean. I’m not even sure getting in the boat is such a good idea.

The John Franklin Expedition through the Canadian arctic was quite an undertaking. However, the mysterious details of the expedition are even more fascinating. Parks Canada will unveil the historical artifacts of the HMS Erebus and the HMS Terror for all the world to see. We will find out about every nook and cranny of this expedition in the name of history.

Personally, I’d like to find out how all those plates and bottles stayed in their shelves underwater. I need that kinda tech in my house.
