Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've lost my triangle again.
Were the vertices all meeting?
Do the stencil ops need tweaking?
Did the whole thing,
Get removed by a backface cull?
Or was it null?
Oh no it's just behind us.

In 1959, a cement mixer with a full load of cement, wrecked near Winganon, Oklahoma 🇺🇸
By the time a tow truck came to haul it away, all of cement had hardened inside of mixer. Tow truck was not able to remove all wreckage at same time because of weight, and decided to haul only cab/frame and would come back for detached mixer later, which never happened.
Today, 67 years later, it still sits where it fell. Locals have painted it and added "rocket thrusters" to make it look like a space capsule.
