Okay… I’ve known that Planet Georgia is full of moonbats, and they’ve been running the place since 1984 or so.
But finding a dead Bigfoot here? That goes above and beyond the call of the weird.

About Me
- Larry Kollar
- What I do isn't necessary what I am.I've been doing technical writing since 1982. In that time, I got married, raised two kids, and am now raising a grandkid. The latter, family, is what defines me. If my career were my life, many things would be different.I've always wanted to write stories, but too often found myself doing other things. At some point in the last few years, I got serious about it. In that time, I've written two novels, started a third, and wrote numerous short stories and flash fiction pieces. Many of them can be found on my blog, and I'm in the final few laps of publishing one of my novels, White Pickups.I'm not all that concerned about "getting published" as eBook outlets now make it possible to bypass the entire query/agent/publisher gauntlet. Yes, doing it yourself is a lot of work — but honestly, the traditional route requires much the same amount (and kinds) of work but without any guarantee of seeing your work on the shelves, actual or virtual. That's not to say I would turn down a traditional book deal if one were offered, but I'm not going to go begging either. In either case, I don't expect to quit my dayjob. It's more important to me that people read and enjoy my stories than having some commercial success.

Ha! That's beyond awesome. I guess tomorrow, they'll be doing an alien autopsy? '-)
Supposedly they've done two DNA samples. One came back human, the other… possum. Someone suggested that the possum was dinner at one point.
Hey FAR,
I read about that, and those two yokels were on Keith Olbermann last Friday and made quite the piece of work award in my book. You can fool some of the people all of the time, and these two looked like prime candidates.
Wasn't the the Martian Monkey hoax back in the 50's on Planet Georgia too? I recall reading recently that one of the hoaxters finally fessed up.
Pass the pork rinds, buddy. :-)
I waitin' for the autopsy, like they did with the aliens.

Ruh roh.
"As the 'evidence' thawed, the claim began to unravel as a giant hoax"

Yeah, it turned out to be a hoax. Rubber feet and all.
Sheesh. Why did they think they'd get away with it?

I think IVG nailed it.
Hehe, this thread is fun. KO reported Tuesday night that when they tried to do an analysis on the fur, it melted into plastic. Uh huh. Rachel Maddow was right last week ... and now she has a new show right after KO on MSNBC starting 9/08/08. Coincidence? Hmmm......
Next up: alligators really do inhabit NYC sewers.
UR, IVG, interesting coinkydink, isn't it?
Boran, there's a little gator in Lake Lanier, not too far from the manor. By "little" I mean like 3 feet long and skinny, not even a threat to small house pets (except for rats & maybe yorkies). They're trying to catch it & take it south before it gets too cold.

Comments are welcome, and they don't have to be complimentary. I delete spam on sight, but that's pretty much it for moderation. Long off-topic rants or unconstructive flamage are also candidates for deletion but I haven’t seen any of that so far.
I have comment moderation on for posts over a week old, but that’s so I’ll see them.
