www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,393301,00.html www.cbc.ca/canada/manitoba/story/2008/07/28/sasquatch.htmlThose crazy Canadians! What does everybody think about this era of time we're living in presently. Talk of an Anti-Christ, talk of UFO's and alien's visiting Earth and being at war with us. Then there's all this hoopla over ghosts and demons. And here you go, now we got Bigfoot obviously on vacation as he swings across the Canadian frontier to circle back and come on home to Utica and Proctor Park.

It was probably a black bear and those berry pickers got scared.

www.bfro.net/ref/theories/mjm/whatrtha.aspI don't believe in the whole Bigfoot theory. I guess it is possible for the Gigantopithecus (upright walking ape, measuring an impressive nine feet tall, and weighing more than 1000 pounds) to not have gone extinct and is roaming around and typically sighted in or near remote wooded, mountainous, or swampy areas. They are rarely seen far from the cover of trees. If they encounter humans during daylight hours they tend to retreat and vanish into the forest. They seem to be most active when humans are least active -- late at night. Unlike mountain gorillas, bigfoots are never seen in large groups, and they don't stay in the same place for very long. I am very skeptical that this is true because it is yet to be proving by fossil remains, feces, hair, teeth, foot prints or pics and videos. We know they did exist in the past and can prove it. So why would not be able to prove that it is still alive? Although it is always interesting to hear stories and is a good tale to tell around the camp fire with the kids I would not want to run into one.

You know, Todd... I was always more on the skeptic side until one night back in late 1974 while traveling with a Marine pal of mine from Virginia to Ohio on a weekend pass to visit his folks. It was after midnight, and we stopped on the roadside to 'water the bushes', so to say ... and I walked back into the thick brush further than he. I stood there doing my 'business' and an incredible stench crawled over me. It was also accompanied by a few louder than expected 'crashes' with branches breaking. I simply tried to do my 'business' quicker. I had first thought I might've stepped in something. If I had, it would've had to have been left by a bear. It smelled that bad. But it also, as I said, seemed to creep or crawl up on me. Like an animal that came towards me to see what I was up to. Anyway, I quickly finished and bolted (yeah, I didn't even walk calmly) back to the car and told my friend as we drove off. I have always wondered what I actually experienced. Never smelled anything else like that to this day in the woods either. On the general topic of Big Foot -- Check out this link: www.unexplained-mysteries.com/viewnews.php?id=133336 I'll stick to the funny TV commercials with the two idiots picking on the (very realistic looking) big foot.

Too bad you didn't investigate further Dave. You might have been able to answer the age old question "do bears shit in the woods?" LOL
I know if I were relieving myself in the total darkness and I heard crashing in the brush close to me, it would have been MY shit that was smelling, as I slipped and slid in it running back to the car.

This is classic loopy Michael Moore thinking. "(Obama) spoke out against (the war) while running for Senate (a brave and bold thing to do ..." Not really, if I'm correctly guessing his support base."... many Americans, who on the surface seem to like Barack Obama, just don't feel comfortable voting for someone who hasn't been on the national scene very long." So, MM suggests Caroline Kennedy? She's hasn't been on the national scene since her father died 45 years ago."What Obama needs is ... someone who has a good and generous heart, who will be cheered by the rest of the world; someone whom we've known and loved and admired all our lives and who has dedicated her life to public service and to the greater good for all." MM has his camera lens stuck up his rectum and is close to believing himself."Caroline, I know that nominating yourself is the furthest idea from your mind and not consistent with who you are..." Is he kidding? She's a Kennedy, for cripes sake. They're the center of their own universe!"Say it one more time: "OBAMA-KENNEDY." A move like that might send a message to the country that the Democrats would actually like to win an election for once." But, fortunately, don't know how.

I think his glee could easily backfire and we could see a few Republican "heroes."
