Well the real "good" reason is that what's left of him might contain clues that lead to the prosecution of whoever killed him. But let's face it, the reality is always "follow the money" and there's a lot of money to be made bringing Hoffa back into the spotlight.

The Red Fox was up in Birmingham..several miles northwest of Detroit.

Yep, northside of Detroit. I don't know the area well enough to name off the suburban milestones, but the USAF shuttlebus ride to Detroitville was generally to the south and east.

Hey you don't suppose old Jimmy is dumped somewhere on Selfridge do you? That'd keep the nosy curious and newsies from enquiring particularly effectively....

I regret to say that I am old enough to remember both of those album covers very well. They didn't all look like Janis Joplin in the late 60s.

Fox is reporting on this?

I take it every blonde female in the US is accounted for then

Makes no sense, the mob has so many foundations or better yet pet food companies to dispose of him in.
Why anything in the woods?

They found Tony *the Ant* Spilotro and his brother Mikey disposed of in a shallow grave in a cornfield near Knox, Indiana in June 1986 after someone had mistaken them for baseballs and applied a bat accordingly. But there was sand in their lungs, leading the coroiners' to report that they'd been alive when buried. Somebody was sending a little message....

Spilotro's been dead 20 years now, he's been portrayed a couple of times on TV or in movies and several books [see the Robert De Niro movie Casino] and his old lawyer Oscar Goodman is mayor of Vegas now. And, oh yeah, a couple of days back, they found a couple more bodies up around Knox, Indiana....

"Is there a stadium there?"

Not in the Wixom-Milford area. That's northwest of the Detroit area, getting more out into rural Michigan, on the way to Lansing. I used to live close to that area. If they find him up there, it will be interesting to see how close he was to the places I used to drive by all the time.

I liked the Red Fox. Only we didn't go to the one on Telegraph Road, we went to the one in Rochester.

Wasn't the girl in the whipped cream on Herb Alpert's album cover his wife?

During the bad Giant years growing up, my father always told me Hoffa was tripping people in the endzone and blocking field goals. I haven't seen a championship in a number years, and hold on to the belief that he's still there (and my team doesn't just stink).

Try being a life-long Vikings fan. THAT is a tough row-to-hoe.

If he's ensconced in concrete, they better bring their jackhammers.
