Worms Fall from the Sky in Jennings |
2007-07-16 |
![]() The sky wasn't falling. She says it was worms, large tangled clumps of them. Beal says, "When I saw that they were crawling, I said, 'It's worms! Get out of the way!'" She even called her co-worker outside to prove she wasn't making it up. Sure enough, she saw worms, and globs of them. Where they came from is a mystery, but some believe that Eleanor Beal says she hopes she doesn't see it again. |

#6 Charles Fort to the white courtesy phone, please. 'It's worms! Get out of the way!' One of the all time great lines. I want to see it in a movie. |

#5 Someday there'll be a big stink about a waterspout hitting a sewage retention pond. |

#4 Hey, my hometown made the Burg. 10,000 pop. adjacent to I-10 and located in the middle of vast amounts of agricultural and marshland acreage. This wasn't the first time live critters got dropped on the town by a waterspout/tornado. Long time reader, first time posting. Love the Burg. Keep up the good work, guys. |
