JSIS: Here's Looking At You-- Something You Don't See Every Day

JSIS--  Just Some Interesting Stuff


1.  HERE'S LOOKING AT YOU--  A big-old giant eyeball was found washed up on the South Florida beach that has created quite a buzz.  It is softball sized and blue.  A man found it while taking a morning stroll along Pompano Beach, just north of Ft. Lauderdale. And, Liz gets mad when I come back from a beach stroll with a lot of shells.

Scientists think it came from a giant squid or really large sword fish.  Perhaps Captain Jack's Kraken?


2.  SOMETHING YOU DON'T SEE EVERY DAY--  Just in time for Halloween, after all the stores have been selling the stuff since August, but  some folks in Los Angeles were pleasantly surprised to see a big old space shuttle, the Endeavour, on its way from LAX to the California Science Center.

The trip will take two days and along the way, there are diamond-shaped "Shuttle Xing" signs.  I'd like to have one of those.  That is as good as the "Caution: Low-Flying Airplanes on US-12 south of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin" or the "Tanking Crossing" signs at Camp Lejeune in NC.
