Rats, now I know why the gnats and other bugs have been so insanely bad this year in the midwest - and to rub it in, I can’t take my daughter spelunking because they are closing down most anything relating to visiting caves to try to stem the fungus.
No other crisis in recent memory has had such a profound impact on my life.
Will no one save us?
Have you ever see the bat colony under the IH 35 bridge at McNeil? I've heard it is larger than the Congress Av. Bridge, but not advertised because of the traffic mess that would result. We saw them when we were coming home at dusk and that cloud stretched for miles.

Some of the put-on artists that Art had were great. Mel's Hole was a great "story". The guy that "flew" (or tried to "fly") over Area 51 was great radio.

Noory and some of the other hosts, including Bell, no longer do that.
Noory getting punked by the shysters ripping people off with capturing Big Foot, only to have a "worker" let it go before "they" could get blood and hair samples, and but after they conned people into buying webcam subscriptions from the "hunt" was reminiscent of Tim Conway on Night Court, except that it didn't cost viewers a subscription...
