Leapin' X-Files! Here's a news item that would make Agent Scully's panties drop...
Australian scientists just announced the discovery of a 20,000- to 40,000-year-old wombat jawbone the size of a large car! The AFP used this file photo (with a hot Spanish motorcyclist, taken at the Maru Koala Park in Australia) to demonstrate the size of a normal wombat -- about three feet long. The jawbone, discovered by a tour guide in the Jenolan Caves west of Sydney, indicates the ancient creature was 6.5 feet tall and 10 feet long.
All very fascinating, but again, we were just kinda jazzed to run the pic of cute Spanish biker boy. And speaking of The X-Files, David Duchovny revealed "the truth" to television insiders at a press conference two weeks ago, while promoting his upcoming Showtimes series Californication, that plans are finally moving forward for a new film based on the popular cult sci-fi series.
Both he and Gillian Anderson are signed on, and shooting on the Chris Carter-scripted movie may begin as early as October.
In the meantime, all this giant wombat business got us thinking about one of our all-time fave X-Files episodes, the creepy "Field Trip," which aired in season six. The agents find themselves lured to a cave in the mountains, tripping out on mushrooms and trapped by a giant carniverous plant as it devours them.
Unfortunately for Mulder and Scully, cute Spanish biker boy was nowhere to be found.
