Two from the Obscure Store [2024-01-10: This link is now dead.]:

A man test-driving a water bike was killed when a duck … flew into his face and knocked him into the water …
Several thousand chickens were killed or maimed … yesterday morning when a tractor-trailer hauling crates of the birds lost the load on an Interstate 83 ramp.

There’s been a beautiful redesign at Romenesko’s Obscure Store and Reading Room. The site looks really sharp now. It’s a great site for crazy news stories. [2024-01-10: This link is now dead.]

I found this site when I was researching money4opinions. You are too funny. I’ll be sure to visit davidgagne.net regularly for updates on the Gators, Hemingway and the rest.

davidgagne.net is the personal weblog of me, David Vincent Gagne. I've been publishing here since 1999, which makes this one of the oldest continuously-updated websites on the Internet.

A few years ago I was trying to determine what cocktails I could make with the alcohol I had at home. I searched the App Store but couldn't find an app that would let me do that, so I built one.

Hemingway

You can read dozens of essays and articles and find hundreds of links to other sites with stories and information about Ernest Hemingway in The Hemingway Collection.
