I have struck limestone!
« on: October 07, 2008, 12:22:37 pm »
So, today at work I was digging a channel for electric cables. It was going fairly easy as I was digging in soil, but at depth of about half a meter my pick hit something hard. I took a closer look, and sure enough it was rock. And I'm pretty sure it was limestone.

Anyway, I just wanted you to drop everything you're doing and come take a look at it.

You going to try your hand at making some nice Limestone crafts? I hear they fetch a decent price from the traders.

That depends.  You got a hammerer?

Or, more importantly, a floodgate?

I do not believe one should be allowed to post an image without any accompanying text. It contributes negatively to the conversation.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

The smiley has been struck down.

I planned to include the face of a strangled man here, but Google turned up so disgusting results that I desisted.
