Amen. It's allergy season in southern Indiana. You can see the pollen float through the air. Of course this happens during one of the most pleasant months weather wise. Once the pollen settles down, the high humidity and temperatures will settle in.

I've been to Hallstatt. Just a fantastic trip. If you take the train (and you should - it's beautiful) the train station is on the other side of the lake, so you take a boat over (I think the reason for this is that the mountains are so steep you can have the road on one side of the valley and the train on the other side, but not both).

If you like to hike, it's heaven. I stayed 3 days, and did a different 8 hour hike each day.

fwiw, shovel chickfight is apparently blowing up Twitter today (currently #Shovel is #7 in the US). The Vine is part of a much longer video on YouTube, about 8 minutes worth.

I'm sure she'll claim to be ADD, bi-polar, or that her mommy didn't hug her enough as a child and get acquitted.

I think the starting point is probably the throwing of the shovel. I mean, as effective use of a weapon goes, that's high quality stupidity right there.

And, based on several articles I read when trying to figure out the source of the Vine, there was discussion of ground rules prior to the fight. It's not like one of them Pearl Harbored the other or something.

It's kind of the white girl version of the Sharkeisha video, except with less sneak attack.

Perhaps it's because this could have easily happened right around here.

FWIW, I don't think it's possible to have a better breakdown of a shovel fight than that.

Maybe she'll get hit with a shovel a few more times and the herd will be properly thinned.

White Trash Shovel Fighting has been around since the turn of last century. About time it started getting a boost from social media.

A map with the "most desirable" colleges by State. "Most Desirable" was determined by number of applications submitted to a school.

Well they go by number of applications.

A quick check finds that UCF had around 32k, Florida had 27k, and FSU had 29k
