I'm not sure, but I know it is the construction part of the African Journey.

There are some construction workers missing. I guess there were a couple of explosions and since most of the "rocks" in the zoo are styrofoam they can't get it under control. There's a possibility it won't be open next year at all. This is looking bad.

I didn't know you're a Pizza Hut delivery driver?

Damn. I was eating lunch at King Gyro's on Goshen, and watching the black smoke billowing from the ground. It didn't look too good. Then every road to Coliseum was either closed or backed way the hell up...so I came home.

Do you just make this sh*t up as you go?

There are NO people missing and no hurt animals...the 'rocks' are on fire. The fake rocks that is...the foam got lit up and they called 911...of course it looks bad...it is FOAM...and knowing this town probably the illegal chemical ridden stuff that was outlawed year ago...they probably got a 'deal on it somewhere...

There were also no 'explosions' that have actually been reported...just people adding the word 'explosion' to the black smoke they see...

I am sure there will be plenty on the news tonight...

I talked to a friend who said they didn't know where some of their crew members were. He called me on my way home and everyone is accounted for. He said the styrofoam got so hot it was "exploding", not like nuke explosion or even bad action movie car explosion, but small explosions none-the-less.

More of a 'cracklin' sound?
