Apparently you can find him when you take a Wrong turn on Cedar. Along with Amelia Earhart and the Loch Ness Monster. At least they're all in one place, that'll make it easier for the Cryptozoologists.

Many people have admitted this to be a Hoax. Supposedly man made ones have broken stalks and "Real" ones are steamed down. Allegedly, this is how you tell the difference between man made and Alien Crop circles. A bunch of bullshit no doubt, but a shame that farmers have lost money over these hoaxes.

I think they Proved that Nessie exists on that on Episode of the Simpson's. And if the Simpson's said it was real then it must be true.

What a cacamamie, half baked listing. Do I believe that the Moon...full or otherwise...has an effect on the Earth? Come on. A supernatural effect? Don't care. But here's something that's pretty cool...

Every non-Grizz-chewin' human knows that we only get to see one side of the Moon from the Earth. We've heard this countless times since birth. But, did anyone ever tell us why this is so? There is now a definitive answer to this mystery, thanks to The Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). A couple of years ago they sent up a satellite named KAGUYA, which means "Bad Mo Fo" in Japanese (just kidding)...but it is one helluva satellite. It's a three ton satellite with 15 kick-ass instruments, which measure everything from mineral distribution to all available gasses. And it has 3D High Definition Television, providing us with clear 3D shots of objects down to 30 feet across. Great stuff.

Regardless of which theory one chooses on how the Moon was formed, no one ever talks about how the Earth effects the Moon, which has always been thought of as a dead, static sphere. Not anymore, thanks to KAGUYA. What it discovered (it mapped the entire Moon..front and back) is that, invisible to normal optics, hidden in those dark areas are very dense areas...indicative of abundant minerals under the surface. On what we call "the dark side" of the Moon (a misnomer), it's a completely different story. KAGUYA was able to determine that there is little-to-no minerals to be found. What this means is that in the formative years of the Earth and Moon, the superior gravitational pull from the Earth shifted the bulk of the Moon's minerals to "our side" of the Moon and has held the Moon in its fixed position, like a great magnet. It's not that only one side of the Moon faces us. It's that only one side of the CAN face us and it's gonna take one helluva event to change that.

"OK Steve, if we buy that the rectal probe was conducted by aliens in a hovering aluminum craft, how do you explain the floral print dress, high heels and lipstick?"

The atavistic fear of death appears to be hardwired into humanity, probably dating back the fist awakenings of sentience in early hominids. Animals either ignore or eat their dead (as some early humans seem to have done) but civilization brought ritualization of death and burial, and not surprisingly mythmaking about sentience after death.

This would be my wastrel Sasakatchewan cousin getting outside a jug of Canadian Club and losing control of his tractor.

Is this the economic theory used at AIG and Lehman Brothers?

Or are you talking about some of my less well-considered relationships.?

Why do so many UFO "abductees" claim to have had rectal exams? Could it be that the aliens are all from Uranus ? Do they accept HMOs ?
