Bigfoot found dead, apparently. Or it could all be a big hoax. Scientific and DNA test results due to be announced at a press release on Friday. My money's on a hoax and publicity stunt for something or other, but you never know.

Comparing (what was) a blue patch on the lander in a photo taken back on Earth, under what I presume was artificial (blue/white) lighting, and the same patch on Mars under a red sky would obviously produce different results. If the original was photographed under a red-light then it would look significantly different. I find it laughable that someone has taken the time and effort to produce web site to highlight their own flawed knowledge of the properties of light and the photographic process. I'm waiting for them to put up a web site claiming photographers fake all their sunset photos. I mean, everyone knows the sky is blue, not red/orange. I've got a photo I took on the beach at midday that the proves it and that the sand is a whitish yellow, yet someone must have tampered with the one I took at sunset because the sky is a different colour and the sand is orange/red. If I was a moron I'd claim it was a conspiracy and set up a site to tell the world.

For a polyglot, I'm disappointed with that, Mono. The town to which you refer is not a county and goes something like this... Llanfairpwllgwygyllgogerychwndrobwyllllantysiliogogogoch. That's from memory, so it might not be 100%, but should be close enough for government work.

Perhaps learning to spell takes up too much pool time.

My god, I've never read such sycophantic puffery in my life. Surely, this is a joke isn't it?

Which means he' got 49 days left...

For those of us who need to brush up on forum posting etiquette.

Good to see Wrexham's first game in the badlands saw them demolish Stevenage 5-0. After such a good start, it's all gonna be downhill from here.

Brush up on forum posting etiquette.

I recommend you avail yourself of this service and report back here.

Teach English to Japanese kids. Does the teacher like it? You betcha.

How exactly people believe President Bush was actually capable of making that work.. If they could rig the moon landing they could rig this. I presume the they you are referring to are David Icke's Lizard overlords. Otherwise you're just leaving yourself open for ridicule.

With a name like Stayin' Alive, would you have expected anything else?

NO SEX TONIGHT! Date: 2005-02-18, 9:18AM PST I never quite figured out why the sexual urge of men and women differ so much. And I never have figured out the whole Venus and Mars thing. I have never figured out why men think with their head and women with their heart. FOR EXAMPLE: One evening last week, my girlfriend and I were getting into bed. Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says "I don't feel like it, I just want you to hold me." I said "WHAT??!! What was that?!" So she says the words that every boyfriend on the planet dreads to hear... "You're just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough for me to satisfy your physical needs as a man." She responded to my puzzled look by saying, "Can't you just love me for who I am and not what I do for you in the bedroom?" Realizing that nothing was going to happen that night, I went to sleep. The very next day I opted to take the day off of work to spend time with her. We went out to a nice lunch and then went shopping at a big, big unnamed department store. I walked around with her while she tried on several different very expensive outfits. She couldn't decide which one to take so I told her we'd just buy them all. She wanted new shoes to compliment her new clothes, so I said lets get a pair for each outfit. We went onto the jewelry department where she picked out a pair of diamond earrings. Let me tell you...she was so excited. She must have thought I was one wave short of a shipwreck. I started to think she was testing me because she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn't even know how to play tennis. I think I threw her for a loop when I said, "That's fine, honey." She was almost nearing sexual satisfaction from all of the excitement. Smiling with excited anticipation she finally said, "I think this is all dear, let's go to the cashier." I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, "No honey, I don't feel like it." Her face just went completely blank as her jaw dropped with a baffled "WHAT?" I then said "honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while. You're just not in touch with my financial needs as a man enough for me to satisfy your shopping needs as a woman." And just when she had this look like she was going to kill me, I added, "Why can't you just love me for who I am and not for the things I buy you?" Apparently I'm not having sex tonight either.

Another to add to thosee from "The Weakest Link" tonight Anne Robinson: In 1941 Sir David Stirling founded which elite fighting force? Contestant: The Lib Dems? One from the Quiz Show answers made me snort my coffee up my nose... "UNIVERSITY CHALLENGE (BBC2) Jeremy Paxman: What is another name for 'cherrypickers' and 'cheesemongers'? Contestant: Homosexuals. Paxman: No. They're regiments in the British Army who will be very upset with you."

I agree entirely. Stick around BB, and regale us with nipple-fixation stories. I too miss young Josco, Teddy, Stayin Alive, DWB, Hein, Bou and T4H to name an incomplete list. Each had their own verve and online persona that made the place such an interesting diversion. There does seem to be an air of "professionalism" now, where -- heaven forbid -- the only reason to visit the site is for death-related news. To me this was (and still should be) an online community unlike most others, where a mish-mash of personalities come together, united in their dry but somewhat dark humour. Sometimes we discussed DL and other deadpools, but mostly not. Not so much the golden-age of DeathList, but of everything else.

Perhaps they should read I? Which, I think, is the root cause of the issue here.
