Mount St. Helens Lets Off Some Steam 342
jdray writes "The cube farm is all a twitter right now, as Mt. St. Helens is spewing out a steam plume, and you can see if from our building. The cam for the volcano seems to be down, but we just saw a news helicopter from KATU, one of our local news stations, headed that direction. They should have some content up shortly." Other readers suggest: KOIN, KOIN webcams, Kiro TV, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, or CNN.

You go out to lunch, come back, and go to a meeting. During the whole meeting, your stomach is growling in such a horrible way as to sound like you've shit your britches. People look at you, and boss asks, embarrassingly, if you have to leave the meeting. You say, redfaced, "I'm OK, and plod through the rest of the meeting while your co-workers roll their chairs a little farther away from you."
At the end of the meeting, you rush to the bathroom, which everyone giggles about as they see you make the mad dash, lock the door, drop your trousers, and sit down for what you think will be mother of all bowel movements. And then you...
All that buildup and embarrassment for...a single tiny turd.
Looks like the other mountains in the area laughed at Mt. St. Helen's before she popped her piddly piddle today.

All the US Geological Service people or whoever monitors all this stuff is going to pack up soon, leaving behind one middle age man who wants to go out with the town mayor. Pretty soon they are going to start drinking sulfer water, find naked skinny dippers floating in boiling water, and ultimately drive a truck into an abandoned mine shaft that will amazingly suffer no damage other then a colapsed mine shaft from the volcanic explosion. Thanks to NASA and their radio signal that has absolutely no problem penetrating solid rock, everyone will be fine with the exception of our hero's right arm snapped in two.

Yeah, and if it wasn't down because it got pyroclastic-flow-dotted or flash-steam-dotted before he posted this story, it's certainly been slash-dotted to oblivion by now...

My wife read that over my shoulder, patted my head and snickered. Then I read your response, with her still there.
There's a sexual joke to be made there, but I just can't get the bat off my shoulder.
*Snicker* The smack in the head was worth it.

A man flying in a hot air balloon realizes that he is lost, so he reduces his altitude and spots a man on the ground down below. Lowering the balloon a little further, the balloonist shouts "Excuse me Sir! But can you help me? I promised my friend that I would meet him half an hour ago, but I don't know where I am!" The man on the ground replies, "Yes. You are in a hot air balloon, hovering at approximately 30 feet. You are between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude, and between 58 and 59 degrees west longitude." "You must be a geologist," says the balloonist. "Why, yes I am," replies the man on the ground. "How on earth did you know?" "Well", says the balloonist, "Everything you have told me is well described. It is also technically and geographically accurate. However, I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact of the matter is I have spent much valuable time conversing with you and I am still lost. Furthermore, I will not be able to make my appointment now." The geologist below nods his head and says, "You must be a manager in an oil company." "Why, yes I am," replies the balloonist, "But how did you guess that?" "Well," says the geologist, "You have no idea where you are or where you are going. Also, you have made a promise which you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem for you. The real fact of the matter is that you are in exactly the same position now as what you were in before we met, yet now your predicament has somehow become my fault."
