History's Mysteries

I will now write the last line of every documentary - past, present and future - on the History Channel that deals with UFOs, aliens, mysterious creatures like the Loch Ness Monster or Bigfoot, Bible codes, the Bermuda Triangle, lost civilizations, witchcraft, DaVinci, Nostradamus or the pyramids.

After they've interviewed the believers and the skeptics, the authorities and the writers, the lecturers and the eye-witnesses - this is the final line spoken by the narrator:

"We may never know."

But they keep remaking the same documentaries year after year.

  • Gave up on them - unless they're about the Masons and how they sold our nation to Satan and designed Washington DC to be a grand puzzle of evil. And George Washington is still alive, but preserved in some sort of suspended animation, to be revealed in the end times as the Antichrist, or Messiah.

    Or - I mean - we may never know.

    Actually, I'm reverting to bad movies on HBO.

  • And now I will write the first line of every bad history or philosophy text, be it TV, radio, book or really bad student paper:

    "Since the dawn of time, man has [fill in the blank]."

  • Since the dawn of time, man has been fascinated with the dawn of time... Why? We may never know,

  • Hate to throw a wrench into things, but what about the past-future-possible-predicate scenario:

    “If and when that day ever comes...”

    ...until then, we may never know.”
