I heard about that. Apparently it was a crew member from HMS Black Pig that found it. The Hugs Bison was discovered by the Hog's bosun in the Hag's Basin.

Nice! Just got back from AZ, went to the Lowell Observatory, got to view Jupiter through the 24" telescope very, very cool. Also, got to see the Whirlpool and Cigar galaxies, the Grand Canyon was alright, but this place was the definate highlight of the trip!

Every year, the week leading up to koning(in)sdag (this Wednesday) has the worst weather we see all year, then on koning(in)sdag itself is the best, most beautiful weather we get all year.
And when I say "every year", I mean "EVERY YEAR!"
Right now, outside, there's thunder, lightning, and three quarters of an inch of Hail! Solid balls of ice, 6-8mm in diameter! We don't get weather this bad in the depths of Winter.
But on Wednesday, you won't be able to wear a coat, it'll be so sunny and hot; just wait and see.
I know what it is: They've made a deal with the USAF, and are using alien weather-control technology from Area 51! Even Obama's in on it!
But they can't stop me revealing the tru

In the fall his elbow pushed the mouse precisely there, yes. Fancy that, what are the odds!

Kinda sounds like Chicago where if you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes.

Just curious - koning(in)sdag is a Dutch word ...
is it also "that well known" in English ?

Koning = king
Koningin = queen
Dag = day.
They had a queen, for the first years I was here, but there's a king, now (who's married to the descendant of one of the nazis that fled to South America, after WWII).

So it's the day when all the useless and unwanted cr@p in the country changes hands -- which is probably why it's named after the king (or queen).
I just stay home and let 'em get on with it.

I heard from extremely reliable sources that the pole will remain as-is until everyone here gets it right.
