Nindigully Road Train Burger
The tiny township of Nindigully is located on the edge of the Queensland outback - 160km west of Goondiwindi, about 530km west of Brisbane, and approximately 70 km north of the Queensland/New South Wales border.
Nindigully Pub is Queensland's oldest hotel, located in its original condition and position on the banks of the Moonie River. The licence was issued in 1864 after operating as shearers accommodation for the Nindigully Station.
The "boom" town has now been reduced to just two houses, the pub, the old general store and the town hall, with a population of six!
Nevertheless, it was voted the Best Country Pub in Australia in 2006 by 44 Australia magazine, and you can see why - it has become famous for its truckie's feed of the Nindigully Road Train Burger.
This giant hamburger is served with French fries, onion rings and a selection of sauces, says it will feed 1- 4 people, and costs $36 - the meat patty alone is 1.2kg!
How do you reckon you'd go?

My, What Big Horns You Have

An elderly Chinese grandmother is getting on people’s goats.
That is to say she’s grown a horn on her forehead similar to that of a goat.
And there is another one starting on the other side of her forehead.
The picture with this story is a bit unnerving as well.
It’s a ba-a-a-d situation.
Best You Return That DVD To The Library

People are prone to forget things and that is just normal.
But a teen recently forgot a DVD borrowed from the library. He had packed it away when his family moved and out of sight, out of mind prevailed.
But the library didn’t forget about it.
I know, I know you think they stung him with excessive late charges, right?
Wrong. They had him arrested.
A Hart To Heart Talk

A 60-year-old man near Chicago had a day he won’t soon forget during the last big snow storm.
He had been over at his mother’s house and shovelled her walk when he felt a pain in his arm and chest.
In denial that he might be having a heart attack, he got in his car and drove away. He had been having problems with his cell phone so he called his provider for assistance.
That’s when he pulled into a convenience store and things got hairy.
The cell phone rep got him the help he needed in a roundabout way.
Oddly enough, her name was Hart.
