Oh man... The cave restaurants in Kenya and Italy look incredible. I bet a lot of proposals have happened there!

No doubt. I'll take another look at the Kenya restaurant.

At any rate, I'm not sure that I could make the walk to my table in Italy.

I'm not as impressed with the "City" restaurants. I've not been anymore
impressed with a high view of a city as I have been with the Founder's
Tower, Petroleum Club or the Antares in Dallas. I like the view but I don't
see it as anything spectacular. However, walking to an outdoor restaurant
on a serious amount of water is almost terrifying. I could dig that. Hey,
it could happen on Tenkiller or Grand Lake.

Some amazing photos in there . . . Thanks!

The lead to the piece says: "Even the most amazing food in the world wouldn’t have quite the same clout if you were forced to eat it while staring at a brick wall." While that may be true, in general, apparently the writer has never visited Stella in OKC. Admittedly, one of the brick walls is festooned with impressions of some Italian opera singer, but it is still a brick wall. And the clout of the food didn't suffer a bit. =)

Here's a fun sight. I think of it as 20th Century Musique Concrete or a type
of atonal. The making of odd music is the cool fact thing.

Lot's of fun.

Personally, I don't care too much about aquariums. In fact, I could not
care less about attending them. In the meantime, Ill gladly walk through
one providing I don't need to stop and look at something I don't care
about.

At any rate, here are some interesting aquariums. I'd rather watch a
Dodger Baseball game.

RM: I don't understand Stella's advertising about their food. Perhaps you can enlighten me. They say that Stella's menu is so authentic, that you won't find any spaghetti or lasagna in the place. If you can believe wikipedia, lasagna has long Italian roots. I'll bet the same is true for spaghetti. Do you think they are unauthentic?

The kiwi is a flightless bird found only in New Zealand. They're around the size of a chicken, and lay the largest eggs in relation to their body size of any bird in the world. Their eggs can be up to 20% of the females body weight - the equivalent of a 130 pound woman giving birth to a 26 pound baby.

This is super awesome!

A group of stormchasers captured some beautiful and terrifying footage of a supercell thunderstorm developing over Wyoming this weekend.

As far as thunderstorms go, supercells are the least common, but they're responsible for most of the violent tornadoes in the U.S. In addition to extreme winds, they also dump torrential rain and hailstones that are bigger than golf balls -- causing flash floods and a whole lot of damage. Their rising, spinning vortices of air -- rotating updrafts called mesocyclones -- can reach speeds of over 100 miles an hour (about 160 km/h) and sometimes last hours.

The Basehunters out of Norman, Oklahoma, created this epic time-lapse video from Wright to Newcastle in the northwestern part of Wyoming on Sunday.
