  • It's actually just multiple dogs trying to mark the same territory on a continual basis. Last year's sink hole was the result of a rather large dog named Clifford.

  • I hope that the CVB is on this and puts this tourist attraction on one of their I-55 billboards. Barns throughout the south will be next, "See IT in CAPE GIRARDEAU". Casino bound visitors can tread through IT for good luck. The possibilities of IT are boundless.

  • What with the temp hovering at 100, no wonder ITs hardly a trickle. The water evaporates as soon as it hits the hot asphalt. Well, most of it, anyway.

    Brad, you may have to put off the bottling business until fall. Of course, you could back your truck up to a city fireplug and fill'em up in the dead of night. Who would know the difference? Of course, that would be dishonest but...

  • Actually, Voyager, while the surface weeping is just a trickle, I was planning to drill to hurry up my plan.

    With a little luck and the fact I'm subcontracting out the drilling to BP, I will hit the "mother load" of natural spring water and there will be a gusher.

    Thanks for reading.

  • As Cape Girardeau flots down the Mississippi and all that Cape water cleans up the coastline and pushes the oil spill back out into the Gulf. Smart thinkin' there, Brad. You're gonna make a pile!
