No it isn't a retirement home for bad rappers, but it is a funny thought. Gold plated dentures and wheel chairs with spinner rims immediately come to mind.
Actually, it's a discovery made by some researchers in the last few days. They drilled down into the arctic in order to get this really old sample of ice that they hope will unlock some info concerning the global climate from way back in the day.
I love science, but I can't help hoping sometimes that something horrible will go wrong with one of these experiments, just for the sheer comedic value. Like finding that the ice had a high urine content and then analyzing it only to discover that some guy peed over the rail of a cruise ship onto an iceberg that would in some way show that the ultra smart scientists actually were going nuts over 3 month old ice and didn't know it. Something about smart people being horribly wrong just makes me feel better sometimes.
It doesn't happen often, but it makes little people like me a wee bit happier. Sorry I just had to get the word "wee" into this somehow.
