1. I don't know what you mean by "mythical." Champ's existence is pretty well documented.

Hell, he was Speaker of the House of Representatives for 8 years, nearly nominated for president in 1912, and has a huge Congressional office building named after him. What more proof do you need?

James Beauchamp "Champ" Clark ==> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champ_Clark

4. Who's Champ?
For that matter, who or what is Jersey Devil?

Mulder and Scully found La Chubracaba (yes, I'm, spelling it wrong)
They also found, I believe, a wendigo, which isn't on your list
And the thing about Nessie, is that the Loch goes REALLY deep and has access to the North Sea, so I think, just like with the coelecanth, that Nessie is real. (And isn't a warlock that Sam had to turn back)

So there!

8. The Jersey Devil is obviously the real one.


Haven't you ever seen something like this running around in the Pine Barrens?

If it wasn't real, they wouldn't have named a hockey team after it.

6. I'll give Nessie some love
I read "The Loch" last year... it was pretty entertaining.

I've seen some pictures of alleged chupicabras that look...like nothing else on earth.
