Once Again, Texas Leads the Way

Giant sinkhole near tiny Texas town growing | TOP STORIES | KHOU.com | News for Houston, Texas: "DAISETTA, Texas -- A monster sinkhole the size of several football fields continues to grow and is causing serious concern in the Liberty County town of Daisetta.

What started as some big cracks in the road Wednesday morning grew to a huge hole by the afternoon.

From Air 11, the long crater on Highway 770 near FM 834 appeared to be about as wide as two football fields and 10 stories deep. It is partially filled with a black liquid believed to be oil or oilfield sludge."

Should have called this one, We Make Them Bigger In Texas.

I think the Hell Mouth is opening up looking to reclaim Shrub. He hasn't fulfilled his quota of virgin sacrifices to the Dark Master.

Funny, at breakfast we were just wondering what happened to the pockets formerly filled with oil when the oil is all taken out. Now we now.
