Depths Of Despair

Take The Last Drain To Clarkesville

The moo, the merrier. Officials in China emptied a reservoir after residents complained a monster was lurking in its depths. Locals claimed they heard "moo" sounds coming from the water at night. Hongxian township government instructed the Yongfu Hydropower plant to empty its reservoir even though it had only been open for two months. They spent about five days letting the 35-foot-deep reservoir run dry - and found nothing more than pebbles.

They were probably making it up, when there was never any real grounds for their beef. Ah well, if it ain't one thing, it's an udder.

Interesting mooing pebbles!!!

BRUNO said...

PEBBLES, huh? Well, if that's the WORST thing found at the bottom, I guess there really ain't much to BEEF about...!

(Sorry---had to keep it going---you know, follow with what's MOOO-ving at the moment!)

Hi Craver,

I have no comeback to such sustained brilliance.

Except to say - it's clear they were not cowed down!

Keep smiling

Hi Wanda,

I think I'd blame BamBam for the Pebbles.
