ARG! If you can believe it, Harlekwin took the documented actual photo of Big Foot:
and changed the filters.
Harlekwin refutes the BigFoot claim with this picture.

I was going to do a bit TT on cool stuff. But when the temperature is below twenty degrees, my mind only comes up with “blah, blah, blah, blah”. So next week will be brilliant.
I don’t think there’s anyway for me to express my gratitude for the friends and community that has sprung up around [...]
