It seems that even pigs know how to play soccer!
These plastic pigs were set up in Germany as part of a display for Soccer Euro 2008. Apparently a A butcher’s shop installed the scene in front of its store for promotion purposes.

Toilet paper unwinds and rewinds during Tornado
Remember hearing about the tornado that hit Minn. at the end of May? Well, residents of Hugo, Minn have stated that they saw some strange happenings during the tornado.
Jason Akins said the twister unwound a roll of toilet paper in his bathroom — draped it across the countertop, then rewound it in the sink. The toilet paper didn’t even rip.
“All I could say was, ‘You have got to be kidding me,'” Akins recalled.
Now isn’t that strange? I wonder if it was as tightly rolled as it had originally been?
Oddly the winds didn’t touch the dishes of cat food and water that were set out for his pet, yet they ripped away his roof and overturned the sofas.
It’s almost like the Tornado has a personality … for example Terry Clarkin said that the Hugo tornado picked up and stuck four steak knives in his yard. The knives landed in a perfect square with the blades stuck in the earth about three inches deep.
Across the street, a tree had been stripped of leaves, and instead was filled with pink wads of insulation — looking much like a tree from a cartoon.
Other interesting finds included a fishing boat against the remains of a front porch while others found canoes, toys and bank books.
Get a look at this barbecue chefs outfit!
Holy Toledo! I sure hope that those of you who were out celebrating Canada Day or the 4th of July this weekend had this guy firing up your BBQ!
Take a look at where he stored the mustard!
I’m not sure what event this was for, but you can see that some of the people in the background are also dressed up in wild outfits. I’d love to know what it was that they were celebrating.
Now that’s a sinkhole!

That’s a huge sinkhole isn’t it? I’m amazed that the vehicle parked beside it seems to be on stable ground!
Here’s another big sinkhole.
Can you imagine driving along and then feeling the ground open up beneath you. Scary! Glad it’s never happened to me so far (crossing fingers!).
