Mars Needs Kitties

Thanks to Lori for sending me this:
That gets me thinking: Do you think if people hadn't had the idea for crop circles until a decade later that the fad would have even happened? In this decade we have the tools on personal computers to fake images like this with photo-perfect results, and hoaxers could just distribute photos with the click of a mouse. Photos have been doctored for decades, of course, but now your grandma can do it, you know?
Hey grandma, nice photoshop of Mel Gibson into Triumph of the Will on worth1000 this weekend.

Last night I dreamed I was a ghost, recently passed. Go »
Space Out
As Denise suggested I do, I've gotten partway through the Unsolved Mysteries set on UFOs. (link) It's not my favorite topic, but the show is entertaining no matter what it covers, and they put on a good show. The problem is that most of it is so hard to believe. Go »
