Here’s a link to a completely made up story, which includes, among other things, a misquote of mine (with my name misspelled…). It supposedly reports on the discovery of Goliath’s skull, with a hole in it, in Jerusalem. And if you believe that – I’ll tell you another one :-)
Whatever…

Hi Aren,
This is an updated version of a fictional story which first appeared in the highly spurious Weekly World News newspaper on 25 May 1993. The Weekly World News, if you haven’t encountered it, was famous for stories about Elvis sightings, aliens, human-bat hybrids, and various supernatural beings.
Here is the original story and the newspaper cover:
Best wishes,
