re: the Atacama Humanoid

"Today, the team has elected to share the following additional 'Atacama Humanoid' conclusive findings: 'Ata' was male and survived post-birth 6 to 8 years.
Speaking specifically to Internet controversy over 'Ata,'..While it's size led many to suggest that it was an aborted fetus, bone density and epiphyseal plate studies have already concluded that this creature survived post-birth 6 to 8 years."

Jack Hirschmann is the godfather of Amber Tamblyn.

living ghosts go down the logger's trail
chewing cud at the crossroads,
Vanishing Hitchhickers never get where they're going
