BIG Crystals!!!

As promised during my most recent post, this post will not have a video. There are videos available if you follow some of the links in this post though! Today I want to share about some truly GIANT crystals. These are colossal gypsum crystals in the Naica mine in Mexico. I have found several articles about these in the past.

The crystals are over 30 feet long and can weigh over 50 tons. They are found over 900 feet deep in a huge mine that primarily yields silver, zinc and lead. The areas where the crystals are was previously filled with water but it has been pumped out while the mining operation goes on. The cave these are in is near an underground magma chamber so it is extremely hot inside, 120-140 degrees fahrenheit and high humidity. The people in the picture at top are wearing cooling suits so they don't overheat. Please follow the linked pictures or here to see more about these awesome crystals! Here is another blog about these from a couple of years ago and there are more pictures too!

Not Another Video...

I know some of you are thinking, why is another video being posted? I have been thinking about that lately too. I just recently have had a number of videos come to my attention or that I have happened to find that I found exceptionally entertaining. Today I am doing the same, I am posting a couple of videos that I feel have exceptional entertainment value as well as being AWESOME!

I promise that the next post to the Mullet will be more substantive but for now, I have set the hurdle very low for you to clear in order to enjoy the post today!

Oil Spill in America.

I heard part of this on the radio in the car this morning so I had to rush to a computer, look up the video and share it with EVERYONE!!! A major highlight for me in this is the Jon Stewart - West Side Story Parody Songbook! And is someone or something trying to kill New Orleans?

Enjoy!

Gaga or Parody?

Some of Lady Gaga's videos are hard to believe that they aren't "Weird Al" style parodies but here is an original from Gaga that is an epic in the Michael Jackson Thriller tradition!!! I have included a parody version from some troops in Afghanistan as well as a Muppets version. I have to admit that all have a sufficiently high level of entertainment value to be included in the posts of the Mullet of Blogs!!!!!!!!!!

You absolutely have to watch all three!!!!!!!!!!! (10 Exclamation Points!)
