    Keep track of nine time zones.

  • A few weeks ago I told you about Dig This, a spot in Colorado where you can play with a bulldozer. (Blog here.) Once you get enough time under your belt, maybe you can try undressing a woman with a back hoe.

    Don't move!

  • Locals call it "The Door to Hell". It's near Darvaz, Uzbekistan (though it could be in Tajikistan; I haven't been able to verify the exact location. But then again, this is a blog about weird stuff and not a New York Times article...), and it's been burning for over 35 years.

    Where is the video of the women getting undressed by the bulldozer?
    I can not find it. It is not in the blog that you say it is in Steve.
    Does anybody have a link?
    Thanks,

    Ahh did you note the first TWO WORDS of this article.?? "TIME WASTERS".... Did you calculate the amount of time you wasted looking for that video.??? Maybe that was the point of the article title.??
