		<description><![CDATA[Um...Tolkien began writing the Lord of the Rings trilogy in the trenches of one of the World Wars. (I can&#039;t remember which one, though.) So just because the movies aren&#039;t that old doesn&#039;t mean someone couldn&#039;t have created something to embody what they pictured Gollum to look like from the stories! 

That being said, I don&#039;t think that&#039;s what it is. 
It&#039;s the kind of thing you wish were real. But doubt it is.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[in regards to the older photo:

The above photo (claimed to be a creature in a rock crevice) is a photo of a carving in Cheddar Showcaves &amp; Gorge in Somerset, England. The REAL story behind it is that a man (&quot;John,&quot; 33, Bournemouth UK) went to Saudi Arabia on a business trip. He met a man who said he had seen a flash of light in a dark cave and snapped a picture, and this is the picture that came out. John obtained a copy of the picture (the locals said it was a djinn, or evil spirit) and brought it back to England in search of a buyer. It turns out that the &quot;djinn&quot; is part of Cheddar Showcaves, a tourist attraction which contains an attraction called &quot;Crystal Quest.&quot; Crystal Quest is a dark cave full of Tolkeinesque carvings, intermittently lit by strobe. Cheddar Gorge officials confirmed this and noted that many people had taken pictures of strange things in the cave, after seeing a flash of light and pointing their camera at it. You can still see this statue there. This picture was debunked in Fortean Times &quot;Strange Days #1,&quot; 1996, pp.27-28, from which the above information is taken.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ugh! they did an awful job re-painting that once-cool statue :(

Re. the Qatar cave story, maybe it was all a very elaborate assassination plot after all! and the killer used a roll of film with a pic of the statue to make his story more credible :-P]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You know, I actually have seen that other photo. Only the story associated with it that I heard was that it was a chupacabras and snapped somewhere in Central America. It&#039;s been several years back though.
This isn&#039;t the site where I originally saw it, but a quick search for chupacabras did turn up this &lt;a href=&quot;http://vulpesffb.wordpress.com/2008/08/12/chupcabra-video/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;site&lt;/a&gt; using the photo.
