Cool Man on Mars ?

No, I don't think this is a man on mars. I just posted this for the cool image of Mars.

How cool is that!

Just saw that on the late news, they reckon it could be the Martian Bigfoot or a pile of rocks.

Just love a good blurred photo

Nope. I hacked into NASA's pooter and pulled out the original shots. This is before they airbrushed out the Windex bottle for the general public release
