A collection of 350,000 books owned by Shaunna Raycraft of Pike Lake, Canada, damaged the building in which she stored them- because the books weighed 30 tons! Look what we found! In November 2011 police in Nizhny, Novgorod, Russia, discovered a man's basement containing 29 life-size dolls that were made from corpses stolen from graves! Despite its reputation for incredible toxicity- the poison dart frog is entirely harmless unless it eats a diet of specific insects!
Apropos the Human Taxidermy: seems like this guy wasn’t satsfied with blow-up dolls, tho he really stuffed up gettin’ caught like that — he’s not so much ‘bats in the attic’ as he is ‘corpses in the cellar’!
Apropos the books: that’s what you call heavy reading!
Apropos the poison dart frog: so does it shoot non-poisonous darts if it doesn’t eat these specific insects then? Wouldn’t describe it as “entirely harmless” if so!
