This is why they cut the feed? This would have actually given that farce a reason to be on the air.

Ranger: "Technically, no. But I do see him each night in my dreams, and each day in the smiling faces of hairy children."
Farnsworth: "Bunk! Bunk, I say! Bring me a bag of Bigfoot's droppings, or shut up!"

My old roomate ended up pulling a big UFO hoax with some other guys. They also claimed to have a dead alien in a freezer. I think the "alien" is still in the basement of my old apartment building. I should go back and try to find it one of these days.

Good times hearing them on art bell and seeing them on all those ufo shows on saturday afternoons.

 
Glenechocreek 2008-08-16 09:31:15 PM  
I know Bigfoot. I'm allowed to call him Biggie.

 
CreepyBasementGuy 2008-08-16 09:32:10 PM  
The anal probe from the aliens didn't hurt at all.

The one from bigfoot was a biatch tho.

"This is as real as where you're standing right now, sir," an indignant Biscardi said when asked by a reporter whether trickery was afoot.

Your Futurama reference will not go unnoticed...unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Futurama. Best episode ever, BTW.

Man, when I was a kid, I would have given anything for a Ladmo bag. I was sad to hear of his death a few years ago.

errr...totally didn't notice that the people were actually nude. I just grabbed the pics thinkin they were manniquin style drawings. Glad someone saw it DANGYOU. I thought it was funny.

I just wanted to go on record saying that the episode of the 6 Million Dollar Man with Bigfoot scared me as a kid almost as much as the fembots did.

"I definitely believe," admitted Ratner, who at 11 years old said he found otherworldly tracks in the Trinity Alps, near Weed, Calif.

I think the name of the town here may be a "contributing factor" in this story.

 
blazemongr 2008-08-17 12:11:02 AM  
Biscardi said he plans to assemble an elite team of scientists to perform a necropsy.

Well, as long as you guys pick them, I'll believe anything they say.

Another article: Although they did not consider themselves devoted Bigfoot trackers before then, they have since started offering weekend search expeditions in Georgia for $499.

Suddenly, I wish I'd thought of this first.

/Nah, I have too much self-respect to lie that badly

Simple pump-n-dump scheme. They're liars/conmen. This is what America has become. GG.
