Mysterious seven-foot head found in Hudson River (sunnewsnetwork.ca)
A college rowing team found a seven-foot-tall head that looks like something out of ancient Rome floating in the Hudson River.

The head is made of Styrofoam and cased in fibreglass, and nobody knows where it came from.

It "looked like something out of a futuristic dystopian movie," Marist College Crew coach Matt Lavin told Newsday. "I thought it was Lady Liberty's head."

It could be from almost anywhere.

"It's a mystery we're trying to solve," said Greg Cannon, the college's spokesman.

Kudos to Marist for employing coach who could use phrase "futuristic dystopian movie" in a sentence.

I don't know about the hudson and if its possible but all the stuff from the sunami in japan is just now showing up on beaches in BC maybe thats where it came from .Im not sure about the water ways and if that's even possible but if it is its worth a look.

...well, you seem to be inferring they should just bury their head in the sand. :snooty:

I don't find this story that odd. I would loose my head as well, if it wasn't attached.

No wonder! Their head is in the clouds!
(clouds, of course, referring to the mist coming off the falls you see them headed for)
