Chilean Volcano Whips Violent Flatulence

I don’t really know much about volcanoes and pyroplastics and why the Earth poops out its inner feelings every once in awhile, but I can say this, beware the person who woke up on the wrong side of the bed and beware a Chaiten Volcano that has slept for more than 450 years.Here’s a mental picture: 450 years ago was around that time when Nostradamus was writing his doomsday predictions. Well, tell you what, he did not foresee this one!

The Chaiten Volcano erupted and spewed tons of ..err ..inner earth material up 20 miles into the air forcing 4,000 residents to flee town, some even going as far as Argentina (where Manu Ginobli is from. But he’s not there.. he’s in Texas. Teehee!) . The explosion coincided with rain, and it created mud. duh! The mud was in the air though, specifically the stratosphere - which is, like, really high - and there it stayed. It’s still actually up there now. Seriously!

On a lighter note though, unexpected as this was, and while mud continues to pour down over the country, the report did say that Chile is one of the most volcanic countries on Earth, with more than 100 active volcanoes. Experts have said about 20 are in danger of erupting at any time. So that’s food for thought.

  4. wonder how it feels like to have a pinatubo in your backyard …

    on another tack, I have been fascinated by your blog template. I’ve downloaded it but I haven’t taken the time to test it locally. I run a copy of my blog on Wamp on my computer and do my template testing here, and your template is definitely one of the unique ones.

    pinatubo in my backyard would probably make me feel gastric. =P
