Open Thread - 10-10-2025 - another mystery solved

Story starts in a familiar pattern - hunter, hiker, fisherman found xxx. Fill in the blank bones, remains or body. The who it is needs to be solved before the who did it and why can be investigated. Maybe a clue in an old missing person or runaway reports quickly filed away. Or talk to the older cop still obsessing with an cold case.

Whatcha Think?! Is it Over Soon?

Is Israel done for? Or is that just wishful thinking?

It's the Korean harvest festival holiday Oct. 5-9. 추석; 秋夕; lit. 'autumn eve.' Big holiday in South Korea 15th day of the 8th lunar month. Variations of the holiday are celebrated in the other East Asian countries.
