Pol claims boulder with 'lifesaving elves' all for himself

5/16/2012

A member of Icelandic parliament has relocated a 30-ton boulder that he believes houses three generations of lifesaving elves to his property. Árni Johnsen claims he first encountered the elves after he was in a serious car accident two years ago near the boulder. Johnsen was unharmed and speculated that the boulder's "inhabitants" (wait, what?) may have saved his life, so, naturally, he consulted an expert on the affairs of elves -- apparently a viable career in Iceland. The specialist told Johnsen the elves were A-OK about moving, as long as the "window side" of their boulder had a good view and the boulder was placed on grass. Johnsen agreed. How nice of him. And how insane.
