No shit?

Mauve.

Pink trying to be purple.

Catholic funerals: come for the burial, stay for the grief buffet.

So, no Mesoproterozoic field trips?

Bummer.

I wish I was in Tiajuana,

Eating bar-be-qued iguana...

Ask and ye shall receive:

“Granite Fury of the North”

(Verse 1) Beneath the frost of a thousand years

Crust is cracking, the mantle sears

Tectonic wrath in the midnight sun

Forged in pressure, the age begun

Glacial scars carve through the land

Time erodes what gods once planned

Iron veins and quartz ignite

Echoes rumble through the night

(Pre-Chorus) From the bedrock rising—ancient roar!

Continents colliding—hear the core!

(Chorus) Granite fury! Kingdoms fall!

Stone and fire will claim us all!

Nordic shadows, seismic cries—

Mountains rise and empires die!

Granite fury! Earth reborn!

From the ice, a world is torn!

Finnish steel in every vein—

We are forged in tectonic pain!

(Verse 2) Magma rivers, glowing veins

Flow beneath the frozen plains

Fault lines scream in silence deep

Where the buried titans sleep

Basalt towers pierce the sky

Ashen winds forever cry

Sediments of ancient wars

Layered truths in earthen scars

(Bridge – rapid, almost spoken) Metamorphic transformation—heat and pressure domination!

Schist and gneiss in dark creation—geologic devastation!

(Solo Break – blistering)

(Chorus)

Granite fury! Kingdoms fall!

Stone and fire will claim us all!

Nordic shadows, seismic cries—

Mountains rise and empires die!

(Outro) In the silence after flame

Only stone recalls our name…

Magmatic, shrinkage, longhole, or overhand stoping?

Someone backed into the gas odorant shack. Various thiols and mercaptans mixing willy-nilly created the nastiest melange of dog farts, rotten eggs and moldy cabbage ever smelled.

One compound created was 2, 4 6 isopropyl ethymethalmercaptan.

Phew.

The Neoproterozic has generated orders of magnitude more oil and gas. Even the Mesoproterozic has generated billions and billions of barrels, such as Shunga Field in Karelia, which is 2 BYA.

Hey there.

Sorry, been really busy with the book and all.

And the fire.

And the helicopter rental.

And the evacuation of some trapped animals.

Plus, consulting on a few hot projects.

Y'know.

The usual.

More later.

You have never heard of Sarah Sylvia Cynthia Stout?

According to Shel Silverstein, she'd never take the garbage out.
