Have you ever gotten a power bill that was unbelievably high? You just knew there was no way you actually raised your bill 300% or so in one month?

I know I Told You So…

But I did tell you so. The bigfoot “discovery” was actually a fake. The somewhat suprising turn of events though is that the hoax may cost the pranksters some big money, since they’re now getting sued. That’s what you get for playing on America’s love of big, hairy things.
