Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I desperately want that rock

I've got something much smaller and softer that might disappoint you

Take out the e in mile and that's more realistic

We really never evolved past cavemen, did we?

I honestly really do have a very cavemanesque reaction to rocks... I've got boxes full of em. Lol. But, the habit has occasionally turned out pretty beneficial. I'm in the habit of scanning rocks whenever I see them, and once found a 6 inch long amethyst in a gravel driveway. Somehow 3 years after moving into the house. Guess it was buried and just got uncovered, but pretty cool find.
