Moe, file photo. Searchers investigated reports that Moe, the missing California-based chimpanzee, may have been spotted at nearby Deer Park Nudist Resort, though a manager there said she had heard nothing about any sightings.

Genius, comedian, scholar, humorist, author, and man of letters, John Hodgman is known by most today as the “PC Guy” in the Apple ads.
