That cave might help explain why people choose to migrate to big cities or high tail it to the suburbs.

And those people explain why we rednecks stay the hell away from cities and suburbs.

"And it has a surprising Chicago tie."

Big surprise there. Actually, Hades is anywhere Obama calls home.

“The cave really does recall the underworld, Hades and the River Styx.”

So, a cave in Greece leads to Chicago? Go figure.

Can Rahm see the cave from his porch?

So they found 30 pounds of pottery in a two meter by two meter area. I hope no one ever excavates my Uncle Bob’s yard. They’ll find 30 pounds of empty beer bottles per square yard.

"Kondraros said his uncle was out hunting with his dog in the late 1950s, when the dog took off in pursuit of a fox and darted into a small hole.

“After two hours or so, the dog never came out,” Kondraros said. He said his uncle widened the hole and ventured inside. That hole, he said, was the opening to Alepotrypa Cave.

So what happened to the dog?

Interesting, but old Cajun puts Hades Cave right up there with Devil’s Swamp, Booger Woods, Roux-Ga-Roux Road and Witch Bayou as places best left not traveled.........Just saying :)
