Tragedy Strikes Austin Landmark
24 hours ago, a fire broke out at one of Austin’s top tourist spots - the Oasis restaurant. According to eyewitness reports and the local news station’s meteorological data, it appears that a lightning strike set off the fire which ripped through the popular eating establishment. Much of the restaurant was gutted, with the exception of about 90% of the kitchen and the main stage where live events are held. The owner has already announced plans to rebuild from the disaster. JABbering Stooge wishes him the best of luck in getting the restaurant back on its feet.
