Elvis has had numerous mentions over the years in various publications and what about myths like the Loch Ness Monster?

are there any others people can recall and do you actually believe any of them?

- I'm sure Elvis is paranoia and gullibility. People see something close, want to think it is really "the king" and henceforth are self-suckered.

- I'm sure something about Loch Ness is true, but to what extent, who knows? Same goes for Big Foot.

- UFOs? Sure. But there's no telling what they really are. "Unidentified" sort of gives that away.

- A lot of human "freak" stories are loosely based on facts about real diseases, genetic defects, and abnormalities/mutations.
