#65: Zimbabwe Mermaids

Published: Jan. 20, 2019, 11:25 p.m.

In this post-modern world wherein consensus reality seems less and less tethered to objective facts there are still a few headlines that one expects never to have to read; a string of words so bizarre that they manage to grab a chokehold on one\u2019s imagination with a strange mixture of fascination, fear and astonishment.

One such headline was delivered via the Daily Mail on February 6th, 2012, and it read: \u201cReason for Zimbabwe reservoir delays... mermaids have been hounding workers away!\u201d
