Hurricane Ike Unearths Civil War Ship

When the storm surge of Hurricane Ike finally subsided, it left behind massive flood damage and thousands of dead fish. It also uncovered a large wooden boat that had undoubtedly been buried off the coast of Texas for centuries. Scientists believe it is either a Civil War schooner from the 1860s or another ship from around 70 years later. Either way it represents a very valuable find for the history of America. It just goes to show that sometimes the waves of disaster can stir up new discoveries.

7 Foot Tall 12-Year-Old

Brenden Adams is only twelve years old, but he already towers high above most adults. He has a rare growing condition--so rare that doctors have never seen or heard of anyone like him. He is still growing at an alarming rate. When he was four months old, he had all his teeth. At age 4, he was about the size of an 8-year-old. Doctors were puzzled at what to do with him. Most people suffering from giantism simply are too big for their organs to handle and their bodies just wear out. Doctors have been working to find the cause and a cure for this rare disease.

Bigfoot is a Hoax AGAIN

So now we come back to part two of our Bigfoot saga. It turns out the mythic skunk-ape was really just a stinking lie. When scientists finally got their hands on the block of ice supposedly with a Bigfoot in it, they got to do some real science. It didn't take long for them to figure out that the big feet were really made of rubber and most of the possum hair had been burned onto it. The two men who supposedly made the find of a century are nowhere to be found. Their voicemail says they are off searching for the Loch Ness monster and leprechauns. One of them was formerly a police officer in Georgia but he has been discharged from the force because of the questions this hoax raised about his integrity.
