The Truth is Out There


Missing a garden gnome? We have garden gnome outside our front door, at least we did the last time I noticed. Come to think of it, I think it might be really be missing! Linda had it in her garden when she was a little girl. Her mom made it in ceramic class when she was just a teenager. Strange you say? It was until I read that over 60 garden gnomes have been stolen from yards by a bunch of kids for their Senior prank. The gnomes turned up Monday morning scattered all around their school. Police were called and the kidnappers came forward and confessed to their caper. There is a number to call to claim your missing gnome. Email me if you need the number and I will send it to you. Unfortunately there wasn't such a happy ending in General Guemes, South America. Some teenagers were terrorized by a creepy garden gnome who stalks the woods in the wee hours of the morning. The midget - which wears a pointy hat and has a distinctive sideways walk - was actually filmed on one of the teens phone. There heard a strange noise and saw the grass moving. At first they thought it was a dog, but then the gnome moved into the open and started moving towards the petrified boys. One boy was so scared he had to go to the hospital. Other locals have reported seeing the gnome creeping about. I think these two stories might be related. Call Scully and Mulder.
