- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -20/+95I dug a hole in mine and now there's just Chinese people crawling out.
- Fedge, on 10/12/2007, -3/+59I had a vision of some guy sitting in a lawn chair, in his front yard, with a laptop on his lap browsing digg. Silly me.

- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -3/+47Rudy scientifically speaking I'd think magma would come out first. Thanks for the comedy tip though.
- RyeBrye, on 10/12/2007, -3/+44And he found the 100 year old graveyard on Google earth.

Ya know that commercial where the jeep falls through the earth and pops up in asia? Do you think it would be as effective if it popped up in the indian ocean and everyone in the car drowned? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+37That would explain the zombies.
- diggfinity, on 10/12/2007, -7/+42im in ur yard explodin ur mice
- dshPls, on 10/12/2007, -0/+31Normally people who just happen to be digging holes in the backyard are burying bodies...
- mookiemookie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+29"Near the edge of an old cellar foundation, his backhoe had triggered a sudden explosion of mice..."
Greatest thing you will read today. I can almost guarantee it. - noahhoward, on 10/12/2007, -2/+28Damn, cn't bury her here, this hole's taken.
- NinjaBoy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18What!! You just built this place on an Indian burial ground?
Oh hell no, first we dug up the bodies, pissed on them, and then burried them upside down.
Why the hell did you do that?
I dunno...i was drunk.

Guess that Oasis gig isn't working out anymore and he's taking a job in the States. - snurfle, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Pix or it didn't... ah, ***** it. Why bother.

Looks like a good part of his property has markers on it now... - dagr8tim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6@ Zoltair
This was near an old foundation. Odds are there were mice. When I was a volunteer fireman we were charged with burning a large pile of brush/crap/bulldozed houses that had been cleared from like 5 adjacent lots. They bulldozed the properties and we were scheduled to burn it about 3 weeks later.
Once the whole mess got burning, we saw hundreds of mice/rats running from this burning pile of crap. I have no problems believeing that if there was an underground hollow space, that there were mice. Esp with this being winter time and they were probably burrowed into the hollow space around the remains. Remember, the story said the ground was frozen and they could not rebury them until it thawed. - missflibbles, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6DeepDoo, I prefer the SPAS 12 myself. If it's good enough for STARS, it's good enough for me.
- DrYeti, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5FTA:
"The journey from discovering one leg bone on a hot summer's day to finally identifying Lyman's mystery soldier was convoluted."
"They excavated the rest of the body and found an oval medallion in mint condition, about three inches by six inches, inscribed with the name "Charles Kimball" and his birth date."
Yep, sounds pretty convoluted to me. - brufleth, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6@diggfinity
As tired as those jokes are that one made my LOL! - missflibbles, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4that's because New England is *****' spooky.
- Sausabe, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7SURPRISE!
- DeepDoo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6LOL, I was thinking the same thing.
I always make sure to have a Barretta 12 gauge recoiless semi-automatic shotgun handy. Just in case the Zombies attack. Nothing beats it for Zombie stopping.
I wonder what this guy was using before he went with the back-hoe?
Actually digging up the source of the Zombies is a good permanent solution. - Shawnosaurus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Journalism these days sucks. This happened last summer and they still couldn't get a picture of the site.
- tlm2021, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3How can you not digg it, if just for the pun.
- bethebryant, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3whats a labtop?
- DeepDoo, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7someone set us up the mouse.
- gruggach, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I nearly spat my coffee when I read "explosion of mice". Now that's an awesome visual.
- dagr8tim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Cemetery Exploration is getting quite popular. I'm a member of several websites who along with urban exploration, also like to photograph old cemeteries. It's kind of fun to research old cemeteries and who is buried there.
A few months back I explored a long forgotten cemetery, and found the grave of a Brigadier General from the war of 1812. This cemetery is in the woods, and I would have never seen it, had the leaves not of already fallen and all of the underbrush been dead. - teddyrux, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3"If they fight for us, then they deserve our respect forever," she said.
That's an incredible quote. - theenginedriver, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Damn, seven bodies. I'm a Maine native, and all I have to say is no wonder Stephen King comes up with such creepy stuff.
- Goner, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3when you're out at night burying stolen civil war silverware and see another guy digging in his yard, you don't ask questions.
- SirG3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@threemagic: It's unfortunately more common than you'd imagine. A catholic church in town bulldozed a cemetary to put in a parking lot... The church's official position is there never was a cemetary there. Actually, I heard that someone has gone back in there with a priest, and standing in front of a few broken stones, he denied that there ever was a cemetary.

- Phearce, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3@Shawno: Journalism is a discipline of collecting, verifying, reporting and analyzing information gathered regarding current events, including trends, issues and people. Those who practice journalism are known as journalists. Did you mean photo-journalism?
Besides, the author gave us the visual "his backhoe had triggered a sudden explosion of mice." IMHO, there's no picture that's going to adequately capture that image. - kixxster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2hell yeah new england. we've got all the history
- Aknot, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Wouldn't the little mole people come out first? (IAW the Jeep commercial) but if we believe in South Park then the "Crab People" would make the first appearance.
- scaler6789, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Lots of history down that road...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Don't live in New England, eh?
Teeny graveyards a literally everywhere. Pretty much every homestead used to just bury their dead family members in a graveyard in the back pasture. Many grave sites have been lost over the centuries, and many more were never recorded anywhere in the first place.
[And why would they be? Remember, these are all from a time when people had rights (Remember the line, "by the People, for the People"? It used to mean something) and weren't brainwashed into thinking everything is illegal and should be run past Daddy Government for permission first. They didn't merely believe government should keep the Hell out of the Peoples' way, but made it so.] - Emmo213, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1From the article: "We have people who died in Andersonville (a Civil War battle) and a soldier buried out on Route 111, John Burbank, who sailed with John Paul Jones," he said."
Andersonville wasn't a battle, it was a prison camp.

No digg. - trejrco, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4Atleast we all have our zombie plans!
(Sarge has 27 of them)
/REDvsBLUE - wacki, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1My question is what are the mice feeding on? I mean the body has been there for a hundred years. Why is that place any different than a hole in the wall?
- tommyam, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm a cop you idiot!
- Matri, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@SirG3: And these people wonder why nobody likes them.
- astrotrain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Nope.. I thought of this:
Dr. Ray Stantz: Are you troubled by strange noises in the middle of the night?
Dr. Egon Spengler: Do you experience feelings of dread in your basement or attic?
Dr. Peter Venkman: Have you or your family ever seen a spook, spectre or ghost?
Dr. Ray Stantz: If the answer is "yes," then don't wait another minute. Pick up the phone and call the professionals...
Dr. Ray Stantz, Dr. Egon Spengler, Dr. Peter Venkman: Ghostbusters.
Dr. Ray Stantz: Our courteous and efficient staff is on call 24 hours a day to serve all your supernatural elimination needs.
Dr Ray Stantz, Dr. Egon Spengler, Dr. Peter Venkman: We're ready to believe you. - vlurk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You know what they say about discovering graveyard in your backyard...
It's all fun and games until poltergeists appear from nowhere and wreak havoc in your house. - adikt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Who is your daddy and what does he do?
- fuckingusername, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1no pics no digg
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Poltergeist 1, 2 AND 3!!!
- silicon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm not a forensic anthropologist or anything but I'm pretty sure after 100 years the remains would be decomposed or eaten up by the mice to the point the mice would've went elsewhere, unless they're just living there.
