um, i have a piece of Mt. St. Helens on my mantle. I am not near Mt. St. Helens. It landed near my grandmother about 60 miles away from the eruption and she gave it to me.
i've been wanting to get a piece of manufactured bismuth crystal because pretty.
The best rocks have a story AND guess what I have bookmarked?
oh dude i have a rock collection that has to be seen in person. i have not figured out how to tell the stories in print yet because it's all sandstone and granite and superfund sites and black ops smuggling artifacts through bolivia in the dark of night mom told me not to talk about on the internet and shit.
that is an awesome link though. i will let you know how it goes
You can't say that shit and not post some cool rocks... but I understand if I already know too much.
my cellphone is in the other room. i will post one of my illegal rocks tomorrow
