Rev. Robert Short or Fritz Van Nest?

A while ago, I posted something about the murky provenance of a classic UFO photograph: see the discussion here. I was never able to re-find that Omni page I saw (didn't really look too hard...) but today, after browsing around at allposters.com, I found this photo with a title that verifies what I saw in Omni--a claim the photo was taken in Utah--Kanab, UT to be exact--by Fritz Van Nest...

Note: I'm really annoyed--for some reason I can't publish photos now. Go here to see the allposters photo.

Stupidest thing on the internets this week...

I am so tired of looking at the news headlines on yahoo and seeing yet another tired, lame story about some pathetic copycat loser who is auctioning off his or her life, soul, etc.

I swear this story is the 3rd different one I've noticed just within the last week. This is not original, clever, interesting, and most importantly, it is not newsworthy.

Why not post news stories about fiesta ware butter dishes that some guy is auctioning off? At least they're pretty.
