There are some pretty extraordinary creatures living down in the deep sea. Take, for instance, the Antarctic blackfin icefish. Not only does this creature lack scales and have transparent bones, but it's also unique in that it doesn't have red blood cells or hemoglobin pigments for transporting oxygen, causing the fish to have a very unique characteristic: white blood.

That's funny. I live on Cinnabar hill/Red hill. The name of the street is Cinnabar. My location was a mine in the 1870's. They mined it for mercury. You can reach out any window of the back of the house and touch it. We live on a bed of it.
And you guys are worried about the Corona.

One man was so passionate about racing, and so fed up with the trailer times and track restrictions, that he decided to do something about it.

Alan Wilzig brought together just about everything that a motorsport enthusiast could dream of needing. From his collection of track ready vehicles and carts to his race shop ready to perform any track-related service

He put in a 1.1 mile, 9-turn, perfectly paved circuit in Upstate New York. It’s a highly technical track featuring 80 feet of elevation change, a 20 degree banked turn, and a heart-stopping hairpin with a blind entry and very deep apex.

The only problem were the other mega millionaires in the area, they all ganged up to shut it down and stop it's build. All the regular people in the area were supporting it. Go figure.
