Read more →A friend from Rome, Ga sent this to me. This photograph was taken during last night’s storm. UPDATE: This is, as one reader pointed out, a picture of a volcano erupting in Chile from the National Geographic. I don’t know why people do this, but every time there’s a natural disaster, someone starts sending around fake. UPDATE II: DANG! I got punked! Well, if one can’t laugh at one’s self, well who can you laugh at? I just looked [...]
