BERLIN – Fans hoping to glimpse U2’s free concert celebrating 20 years since the Berlin Wall fell were outraged Thursday to find that a nearly 6-1/2-foot (2-meter) high metal barrier was installed to block the view for those without tickets. Both Berliners and tourists alike saw the irony in building a wall around a concert dedicated to the wall that already has come down.

There’s an Ampersand Mountain in New York State, which “takes its name from nearby Ampersand Creek, so named because it twists and turns like the ampersand symbol.” Sadly, I can’t find any pictures of Ampersand Creek, but now I’m really curious.
maybe you can console yourself with some cartozoology. =)
