The Icelandic Thing

This has been making the rounds over the past couple of days …




Is it –


(1) A tear in the time-space continuum

(2) Bigfoot swimming for a yummy salmon

(3) Yorgen Snurdsgul’s new robotic radio-controlled lake monster

(4) A plastic garbage bag reeled in by a fishing pole

(5) Thirty-foot worms from the center of the earth

(6) Melting river ice

(7) Kiranagua: the first sign of the Mayan Apocalypse

(8) Ice gators from that new History Channel show

(9) The oil-blob-thing Stephen King wrote about

(10) A rare video of Gaia’s mitochondria


You know what I think it is!
