DUDE!!! I knew it!! I knew he wasn't really dead!!

If this is for real I am not surprised. I guess we will have to wait and see.

So how much longer until Elvis resurfaces?

Hoax. Let me show why...

Look at where the announcement is supposedly held (Yahoo News, Business, Press Releases). Then, close that browser and open up yahoo and go to Business then Press Releases. Nothing there. Nothing even resembling Andy.

Click on featureXpress on the right side. Nothing there either. However, there is a delightful article about an Martian ambassador receiving spam mail (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=1441&ncid=1441&e=7&u=/040519/234/726km.html) which would prove that it's not exactly "News" that they report.

Just for S&G's, I went to featureXpress website. I did a search on their website for "kaufman" which turned up no such news release.

These, of course, are just my opinions.

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

lol Nice find! Die duplicitous bloggers!

[Dresden]

awwww.....shoulda checked out snopes.

They get the scoop on everything.

[LA_MERC_MadMAX]

I still say - it sounds like something he would have done :)
Kaufman was an interesting guy - I do not feel he was portrayed well in the movie "Man on the Moon" - although a good movie, it kinda made him out to be more of a freak than he really was - he was a prankster - he liked things that were funny, sometimes only to himself.

[LA_MERC_Spark]

he liked things that were funny, sometimes only to himself.
that = freak! lol!
