Well, Bigfoot could easily exist, just like the "mythical" lowland gorilla turned out to be fact a hundred years ago.

The fact that they found it in a heavily developed Georgia forest probably should have set off some alarms, and they certainly should have examined the "corpse" before shelling out the money.

Should've RTFA. They did profit from it, and it was certainly fraud.

I bet those guys are going to feel like they've been buggered by a whole pack of rabid sasquatch before it's all over.

So, can they be prosecuted for fraud? Did they profit from this?

What a bunch of assholes.

I guess he found out. It's easy to do, not so easy to get away with.

The boy was certain to be a thug in any case, as he is 19 and still living with his parents AND playing video games all day.

Wow, that story is from 1996. I didn't even know CNN was online back then.

lol Googly-Moogly is trolling trolls.

Those guys who post angry pathos riddles comments on blogs generally aren't trolls, they are just internet tough guys. There is a big difference. Trolls do it for the lulz, where internet tough guys do it to stroke their own egos.

If you could accept a batman reference, Joker would be a real troll (he just wants to watch the world burn--why so serious?), where Harvey Dent aka Two Face is more analogous to an internet tough guy, where he was a good person, but he is pissed off for whatever reason, and resorts to INTERNET VIOLENCE aka CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL, pathos, etc. Trolls make internet tough guys pretty effectively.

The hyperinflation and the food shortages aren't really related, at least no directly. The hyperinflation is a result of runaway spending by the government, along with declining tax revenues. much like here in the US, they continued to spend more than they took in, and they made up the difference by printing more money. Lots of it. The government can buy anything it wants, simply by devaluing their dollar (amounting to a phantom tax). The people caught on to the increased number of dollars in circulation, and prices started going up up up, and everyone lost their purchasing power, except the government.

Eventually, no-one will even take zimbabwe dollars, and the regime will crumble.

With the Boy Wonder and Batgirl, the writers of Batman had run out of ideas for ill-advised sidekicks, that is, until BATBABY!

Yes, water has cooled by evaporation since the beginning of time. The question is, has it been used to keep food cool?

Naw, just feed them to a whale, then slaughter the whale and make whaleburgers. Kids love em.

I loved it. Just wish there was an automatic level generator.

Very strategic, with a bit of luck needed.

@rainbow: How do you know? Maybe they collapsed off stage.

I'm still waiting for the Donnatello and Raphael codes, so I can have a complete TMNT set of secret codes.

Yup, and each and every President since Wilson has been complicit in it. Fiat based is going to be what sinks this nation when it inevitably collapses, which is what happens EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. it is instituted.

Buy gold, buy silver if you want to avoid inflation (now roaring at more than 16% in real terms). It's especially good for when the currency collapses.

Imagine how bad it would have been had there been a male aged 23-26 living in their household? Hysteria over child abuse (however baseless the claims) is almost guaranteed to ruin any man's life.
