Pop goes the weasel

A weasel caused a power outage and shut down the Hadron Super Collider.

Quote :
Marsollier says Friday that the weasel died — and little remains of it.

The collider is such a waste of funds and resources. Regardless, I feel worse for the weasel than I do the collider. It'll cost millions for them to fix. Much better usages for that money.

I once ran over a dead, bloated pigeon with my bicycle and it popped. I managed to miss it with the front tire but wasn't able to avoid it with the back tire and the carcass exploded like a water balloon. Sick

Not sure how that relates to a weasel shutting down a Super Collider but I thought I would share the memory.

That makes sense seeing as how you both probably have the same capacity for science and learning.

Smack Why do you have to be so mean?

I think the weasel deserves an apology.

Sadwalk I'm sorry weasel. I totally jumped to conclusions and figured you were just looking for a good wire to chew, when in fact you could have just as easily been doing research or just wanted to tour the facility. #weasellivesmatter

Anybody that ever complains about their job really needs to watch that a few times and be thankful.

I love to learn - I'm reading constantly. Online tutorials, blogs, I do a good bit of writing myself. Yes, I'm aware of most people's opinion in regards to the collider. Still, I have my opinions, be them popular or not.

I was going to do some retort, however I'm not. It wouldn't be right. Have a fantastic day and God bless. Smilie

I have seen yellow bellied whistling marmots on Pikes Peak. They look like yellow Neutra Rats.

If you're a bible thumper then yes...the LHC is a waste as there is no such thing as the god particle and the big bang is a fallacy. lol at that way of thinking. Remember...the earth is less than 10,000 years old ya all, lulz.
