    No.3 (Iranian missile test) is a good one... The launch cloud is so obviously cut'n'pasted
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    I don't really get the point of altering that one. To me, the original photo is much more dramatic.

    Damn, mike. We have enough political threads going on around here. There goes the original topic of this thread.

    First off, pretty damn impressive for such quick work, Mike!

    Secondly, this was a fun article. I'd forgotten about a number of the hoaxes.

    wouldn't he be in the crowd saluting back?


    the shark behind the two divers cracks me up. a funnier version of that pick would have the shark's front fins around their shoulders, giving as much of a thumbs up as an animal without digits could give.

    Being from New York city the 911 Photo is disturbing.

    I like the giant skeleton and the fairy hoax. That must have really stirred things up in 1917.
