The Exchange

it began with the discovery of 'the object'

Liberty's Edge

Those photos of the tunnel are just about the coolest thing I've seen all month.


Awesome.

Silver Crusade

Obviously Paizo has something to do with this


Clearly it's aliens.

On the one hand I wish I was back in the Northwest so I could go play with the unidentified object and gain superpowers or the friendship of a dragon or alien or something. On the other hand I think we should just leave it alone and pretend like we never encountered it. I mean seriously, does nobody watch horror movies? Whenever you find an unidentified object, either buried in the ground or fallen from space, it usually heralds the death of at the very least the finders who play with the unidentified thing, and on the oposite end of the spectrum, everyone on the planet.

I blame Cosmo.


It's probably just a future regeneration of Geraldo Rivera imprisoned in the Pandorica.

Its not my fault. When I put jimmy hoffa and walt disney there inside a concrete bunker it was a po dunk town that everyone said was going to collapse in like, 5 years...

Pumping water from the drilling cavity to push inspection of the object back to 2014.

what ever it was blocking the tunnel machine has vanished and now the highway is sinking

No, they're only saying that it vanished. Obviously, just like TMA-1, it sent out a signal when it was discovered, and the Greys have come back to get it.

It appears that they must have gotten their Oscillation Overthruster working again. Better luck next time, John Yellowdingo.

And don't touch the watermelon over there.

Hey, someone actually found something to do with a gnoll femur!

I'm pretty sure ogres use them as drumsticks (though admittedly they're not particularly picky about which creature the drumstick came from) and goblins for playing a game suspiciously like baseball but with more broken glass and explosions.

Clearly, the paizo golem was off on it's own, minding his own business, bumped into the drill and decided to return to the safe haven of the paizo office.


Jimmy Hoffa?


IT'S THEM! RUN!

Not unless they stuffed him down an eight inch pipe.

THEM! are giant ants.


When they were building the channel tunnel, scientists and engineers spent hundreds of hours trying to find the path of least resistance through the rock. Honestly as big as the machine is, it doesn't mean it's unstoppable.

A difference or variation in the rock could potentially cause a reduction in drilling capacity quite dramatically.

Stop trying to throw sense into our paranoia!

Ah, the fabled Bong of Seven Parts.


1000 feet into a 10000+ foot tunnel. This is going to take a looooooong time to dig.
