Actually, I prefer they not find him. I like the idea of aging mobsters giving wild and grisly bum steers for a few more years -- and then their kids after that saying 'he told me on his death bed. it's the truth...'

there should be tomb built to commemorate the missing mobster.

Interesting. Wouldn't that be something if they finally found him?

...and all these years we thought he was under the end zone at giants stadium.

Hoffa will never be found. He was killed, bled and gutted, and flensed, and then cooked into Italian sausages that have long since been consumed by unknowing affecionados of Baked Ziti and Sausage.

Have we heard from the owners of this horse farm on this ridiculousness?

Are they going to pay to replace this barn?

Who the hell cares where he's buried?

I found Jimmy Hoffa in 1989 when I read the list of ingredients on the back of a package of Bar-S franks.

Hey... if Hoffa's really there... the t-shirt sales alone will pay for a pretty darn nice replacement barn. :-)

Hey Hair,

This is necessary to make new episodes of Cold Case Files on Court TV. I watch it all the time and I'm getting tired of seeing the same old serial killers. It's time for some fresh blood! ;-)

I live near there and local businesses in Milford are really capitalizing on the brouhaha, like good capitalists! A local bakery has been offering cupcakes with a plastic green arm on top, reaching out of the cake, Carrie-style. And T-Shirts, etc. Hilarious. Check it out.

Heh... A friend of mine's mother was interview for that show... I've never seen the episode, and I've looked for it. She found a body they think was a Bundy killing.

Maybe they can rebury him in the end zone, thus bring closure after all these years.
