Never mind BP's little oil blowout. We need to figure out a way to kill the worm that's going to come out of that thing.

You sure that photo didn't come from the National Enquirer? Looks an awful lot like the work of Bat Boy to me...

Just turn it into the town public toilet until you fill it up, could become a great tourist attraction.

Any word on how deep that hole is?

In other news.. Pamela Anderson was quoted as saying "Meh, you call that a big hole?"
