Speaking of D.B. Cooper...

Seems some guy from Minnesota, Lyle Christansen, is convinced that his
brother Kenny was D.B. Cooper. Kenny Christansen is in fact a dead
ringer for Cooper, was an army paratrooper, bought a house in Buckley,
WA, with cash that he never explained where it came from, and he worked
for Northwest Airlines. On his deathbed he started to tell Lyle that
there was something he had done that Lyle should know, but then he died.

Kenny Christansen died in 1994 of cancer. The house is now a sign shop.

Mistrakes?

By coincidence they had a story on the local news about ol' DB last night.

Apparently, one of the parachutes the FBI gave him was a dummy. DOH!

I saw a documentry on this where the experts seemed 90% sure they knew
who it was. The guy was an army paratrooper. He disappeared after the
incident (surely killed). Someday some hunter in Washington will
probably find his body.

No way.

DB Cooper is my ex-wife.

She had makeup and a man's suit on.

I've been telling the FBI that for years and they still refuse to lock her
up

You are not thinking this through. The mayor of Buckley says he wants
to turn Christansen's house into an historical monument if it turns out
it is true.

You think you have troubles now...

This is getting ridiculous. Everyone knows that D.B Cooper was the fifth
gunman at the Grassy Knoll. He hijacked the plane to get money to pay off
his debts to Jimmy Hoffa. Sometime later he went into the witness
protection program, changed his name to Oliver Stone and now produces
historical documentaries. You can find all of this on the internet, so it
must be true.

Last I heard, some woman in Florida said she discovered the man she was
married to for 20 years was Cooper. Don't know what ever happened to
this story.
My guess is that he went into one of those lakes that dot the
countryside where he baled, got tangled up in the shrouds and drowned.
I think someone found some of the money in a stream bed some time ago.
This one will hang in there with some of the other unsolved mysteries of
our time.
Perhaps someday it will get solved :-)
