That just says it all, doesn't it?

#2 I wonder if Al was a skier. Or maybe a skydiver!

#3 Oh please oh please oh please allow the gloves to finally come off. I hope this mutt had a truly nasty note pinned to his chest courtesy of some Nasty Boysâ¢ of the SEAL/SF variety.

(not to mention his gonads in his mouth and a pigskin overcoat)

#4 What a great find. Without knowing where to look, to stumble upon the body in the vast waste of desert is extremely fortuitous.

#5 Of course, the article doesn't say if the body was 'lost' there by dropping him out of a trunk, spinning around a couple of times and suddenly finding him.

"Oooh, lookitthat!"

#6 SH - I detect an aroma of disbelief in your comment. Skeptical?

#7 Frank, I think the story stinks like I'm sure the snuffies corpse did when it was found. It must have been found fairly rapidly also if the man could still be identified, unless of course the killers mummified him.

#8 Maybe we should get those crack security forces to come out to Oregon and help find DB Cooper?

#11 Sounds like what the Mob used to do back in the 60's in Las Vegas.

#12 Y'know, serendipity such as this is quite similar to finding Mr / Ms Right sitting right there in the next cubicle. Out of 6 billion people, who'da thunk it? The wonders of the Universe never cease to amaze me.

#13 Ms Right sitting right there in the next cubicle.

Jeez... that's not so odd... it's happened to me dozens of times... The She's could rarely grasp the moment of the 6 billion/1.

LOL One day we're all gonna write like a cross between Lucky, .com, Fred, SH and too many othes to mention.

Hold Me Fatima! I want to write the perfect Rantburg entry. Prizes for all, trolls allowed, wear shoes. And no irony. And make sure it's not Fragile.. cause she don't live here anymore.
