Mooses? I don’t think that there’s a plural for moose …
We took this photo of a metal moose while attending an Art fair here in Toronto. This moose is made out of a recycled oil tank!
This second moose was found in front of a Chicago building.
Do you have interesting animal artwork or statues in your city?
COMMENTS (0)Want to take some time off during March Madness week?
Well the Springfield ore. Oregon Urology Institute has come up with an idea that will gives guys a very valid excuse to sit around watching college basketball games.
Get a vasectomy.
That’s right. They are suggesting that it’s the perfect time to get a vasectomy.
“When March Madness approaches you need an excuse … to stay at home in front of the big screen,” the clinic’s radio ad says. “Get your vasectomy at Oregon Urology Institute the day before the tournament starts. It’s snip city.”
Men generally need two to four days to recover from the procedure and it seems that men are taking the suggestion seriously. The administrator of the Institute has already reserved dozens of appointment slots for March 19th, the day before the first NCAA tipoffs. He’s also got at least a dozen appointments set for March 26th – just before the tournaments second week begins.
A local sports radio station has been broadcasting the clinics ads and they’ve promised to send each patient a recovery kit that includes sports magazines, a bag of frozen peas (for relief) and free pizza delivery.
So who’s in?
COMMENTS (3)Hundreds of Midwestern Power customers and two squirrels were very unlucky one day last fall.
Apparently a squirrel came into contact with an overhead transformer and knocked out service to 177 customers. Power was restored in just under an hour, but naturally the squirrel lost it’s life. The remains were found by repair crews.
Just 40 miles away in Ironwood, Mich, another squirrel got into a substation and caused a temporary power outage that affected 1400 customers.
The power company is now thinking about what kind of steps it can take to keep curious animals away from the lines as they, along with weather, are one of the leading causes of power outages.
“We kind of liken it to anyone who’s had a bird feeder and tried to keep the squirrels out,” said the power company spokesperson. “They find a way.”
Good luck!
