I knew there must be a good reason I checked the message boards at this hour.
Actually it is kind of interesting. Always fascinating to see what all gets collected.

P.S. @lordmarcovan . so were you shopping for rocks or for bacon when you found this?

It came up in my Heritage emails.
Though I don't really collect them, I like rocks and minerals and find them mildly appealing, so I checked it out.
The resemblance of that specimen to a piece of bacon just kind of struck me as uncanny, interesting, and funny, is all.
(Judge for yourself what that says about my brain...)
That is a great item.... I have always liked rocks/minerals - was my very first collection as a kid (likely many kids collected rocks - cheap and available). I still pick up interesting rocks when on hikes or other mountain treks, and panned gold out west for many years. Cheers, RickO
I like interesting rocks too (and fossils). That's a cool one.
