I watched at teatime and he didn't appear. Perhaps he was ejected from the area for causing the earlier communication problem between the studio and the location.

Oh my!
Maybe he got fed up of waiting and disrupted another news broadcast somewhere

I just wanted to report 2 cones I saw at the local second hand store: sort of reddish orange, quite faded, with their top most edges all shredded and greasy marks here and there.
I may go back and buy them, but I wanted to ask: 'think they'd like living at a house or would they miss the open road too much?
They seemed so noble and yet bored among the other thrift shop items. |

One thing is for sure, I took some brilliant photographs earlier today of a selection of assorted cones near my home. I plugged the camera into my pc and the memory card is corrupted so they do appear to have special powers.  
My contribution will have to wait until tomorrow now.

The cone just won the Tug of War - Men vs. Women thread. I had no other choice but to just top it off with 101.

The cones are selling themselves second hand?
Domesticated house-cones do exist, but sometimes it takes a while.

Maybe the electric cone did it?

I didn't know the cones could tug - Amazing!

Excellent work
The cone photo gallery and forum are both going to go ahead, check the website in about two weeks

I hope it has some breaks during the day because it looks like its melting with the heat.
I caught this cone heading for the wedding cake display window, I wonder when it plans on getting married?
