internet explorers club | what a world we live in

I mean, I can't make this stuff up:

On a terra firma note, are you looking for a new home? Boy do we have some options for you. To start with, the Bureau of Land Management is seeking volunteers to live in a haunted ghost town for the summer. Highlights include having the town to yourself after 5PM, so you can hear for yourself the "erie sounds of laughter and music" in Kelly's Saloon. I myself will stick to the children's activities.

Other options include luxury condos in Kansas that are built in old missile silos (and therefore safe from nuclear attack), or if you want to build something yourself, you can buy a set of abandoned submarine pits just north of Key West

If you'd prefer to build your house virtually, Kill Screen Daily delves into the world built around the only way to play The Sims—that is, to cheat. On a personal note that I can say that I have never played a Sims game without using the cheat for infinite money.

In the realm of finding hidden things, apparently clear water has led to shipwrecks from the 1850s being now visible in Lake Michigan, and a sandwich shop in Shanghai has built a speakeasy with its entrance hidden in a Coca-Cola machine, and there's a hidden installation of Batchelder tiles in Los Angeles that dates to 1914. Road trip?
