surprised to hear the announcers talking to someone in Hell, Michigan.
(This was Monday night, just before "6/6/06".)
I think we talked about the place back when we were sharing webcams
around
the world, or maybe just talking about odd place names.
Anyway, it really tickled my funnybone to hear the announcer solemnly
asking someone in Hell what he thought was going to happen. And
predictably, after they thanked him, the other announcer did wonder
how hot
it actually got in Hell. (Rarely over 100 degrees F.)
I no longer have the URL but, at the time, I printed out the photo: the
town's name on a post, which you see as you enter the town. With
icicles hanging off of it... I've laminated the photo and it still
hangs on the fridge, providing my daily dose of amusement. It's also a
great tool in the cause of efficiency: whenever someone (like DH) asks
me to do something unreasonable, all I have to do is point... :)
