Wednesday’s discovery appears to have been firmly planted in the soil, and not dropped from above.

On Instagram, Utah’s highway patrol shared a picture of the bizarre finding with a caption reading: “Counting big horn sheep with DWR this week. During the counts we came across this, in the middle of nowhere, buried deep in the rock. Inquiring minds want to know, what the heck is it?

“Do the rocks look different from up there, Carl?” “Nope.”


Reminded me of that scene in the original Twilight Zone where the 5 various characters stand on each other's shoulders to see over the rim of the mysterious container they were in.

Turned out they were each toy dolls in a Salvation Army toy barrel.

I used to work for a company that was tasked with designing a means of communicating the hazards of Yucca Mountain (back when it was an option for burial of nuclear waste).

The trouble was it had to be designed so people could still understand it 20,000(?) years from now.

You need to check your posts and correct what autocorrect “fixes” before posting.
