I just went over to my good friend Tuklo Nashoba's Blog and the statement there says it was hacked. You know, "hackers" are individuals with no emotions whatsoever! Seeing his blog there sitting lifeless with no content reminds me of an incident that happened here over Christmas. Someone hacked into one of our local hospitals and changed everyones medication regime. Can you believe that? Change everyones medications. Heart patients were getting nonbeneficial pills, people were going into suregery when none was needed and the list went on. This individual done this for his/her/their own sick practical joke.
I hope you get you blog back up my friend.

Arrogance Among Bigfoot Circles...
You know, I started out with quite a number of friends in the bigfoot community. I started holding conferences in Tennessee then later one in Georgia and found that most of the time I inadvertently invited "arrogant ass*oles" to these events. Don't get me wrong, there were many individuals that I actually liked. But many ended up ticking me or someone else off due to the "know-it-all" attitude towards research.
After about the third Chattahoochee Bigfoot Fest; I came to understand a few things:
1.) Just because someone is "old" does not make them "wise!"
2.) Lifelong habituations on an individuals property DOES NOT make them an authority on matters of bigfoot.
3.) Bigfoot research cannot be done solely sitting in a car or truck!
4.) Every research stop-off point is not habituated with a bigfoot!
5.) There really are NO AUTHORITIES on the subject of bigfoot. For the most part, its all speculation (except maybe for Janice Carter's case).
I have chosen to exclude myself from any future conferences or festivals for this very reason. So how can we all escape this circus act? Do independent research.

The Temperature of Caves...
I just found out that most caves around the world stay at temperatures between 50-71 °F. During harsh weather such as severe snow storms, blizzards, hurricanes, tornadoes or just heavy rain; caves could provide comfortable shelter for bigfoot-type creatures. With these comfortable climate conditions, it is conceivable that this may be why we do not see bigfoot more frequently at cerain times of the year.
European monks and Scandanavian Vikings also stored their "home-brew" or beer in caves to keep it cool and refreshing. Hence, when you travel to the United Kingdom, pub servers ask if you'd like a pint or a cup of "cave".
Icelandic Monsters?
Map of Iceland:
Several sea monsters cavort in the waters off Iceland in this 1585 map drawn by Andreas Velleius.
Tales of monsters in Iceland go back as far its history. In ancient chronicles monsters were said to encircle the island destroying everyone attempting to settle it. When King Harald Gormsson of Denmark wanted to settle Iceland he sent a magician to assess weather it would pay off to send people to this isolated island. The magician encountered an army of monsters defending the whole coast line. He turned back reporting that the place was totally inhabitable thus ending further intentions of settlement.
In the 17th and 18th century reports of monsters were frequent, especially in the country side. The most common monsters were skeljaskrímsli (shell monsters) usually seen or encountered at the coast. These monsters were said to be the size of a large cow with their bodies covered with hard shells. Virtually invisible at the beach the only way to detect them was by the terrible rattling sound they made moving around. They were extremely vicious attacking and killing number of travellers and livestock.
One of Iceland’s most infamous monsters is the serpent of Lake Lagarfljot in East Iceland. It is Iceland’s equivalent to the Loch Ness monster annually drawing number of tourists to the lake.
Sightings of monsters have become rare in recent times but every once in a while reports are being made, especially by hunters and farmers.

What Do The Bigfoot-Type Creatures Eat?
This is a question that has arose on many, many occasions. Again I found myself over on another message forum (name of it withheld because it has become somewhat of a joke in the bigfoot community) that stated "giving the bigfoot horse feed, and oates with molasses". Geez! What philosophy. Are trying to give the poor animal the "shits?" In that same paragraph this individual recommended raw beef or pork livers (so much for reducing any parasite and microbial infections). I suppose these are viable sources of proteins that work well in one area (if cooked) but again we have a situation with "what works well in some areas....may not work well in others!"
It is the reponsibility of the individual researcher to perform trial and error with different food sources when trying to attract bigfoot-type creatures. I however would not recommend whole grains(at least not in their purest forms such as farm animal feeds). We are talking about a creature that may be closer to us physiologically than any other known animal. With that being said, what types of gastro-intestinal problems would arise if one of us were to consume large quantities of raw grain? Even molasses after about two teaspoons would cause severe diarrhea with any warm-blooded animal. So WHY do you suppose this individual would recommend such an "insulting" diet regimen for these beings? The answer is simple; they've never tried it.
So, that leads us back to the question. What will bigfoot eat? Don't insult the creature with a laxative first of all. Go into your research area and look around. Look up, look down and in trees and bushes. Find natural "eatables". Well what are eatables you ask? Start by analyzing food sources that you yourself could eat. Natural foodstuffs such as fish are abundant in most creeks throughout the world. You might then want to locate mushrooms, various wild berries, certain types of flowers, water plants, different bugs, yams or whatever. The list is too extensive. Offer these types of food for your experiment. It will however require the researcher to educate himself/herself on wild things that grow in their research areas.
To accomplish this, the researcher will almost certainly have to put down the two-litre Cokes, leave the armchair, keyboard and television behind and travel out to do ACTUAL research. If you can't go out by yourself, find a partner. There really is no excuse is there?
Desert In Maine, USA?
Yep. I ran across several websites while searching for information on another topic. Scientists claim that some 11,000 years ago (the Pleistocene Period) a glacier left behind sand and mineral deposits to form "The Desert of Maine". Check it out:

Bigfoot The Stupid Versus MAN The Smart...
Largely in part underestimated, bigfoot-type creatures are probably some of the smartest warm blooded animals on this planet. Who says so? I say so. There was a time when I went out in the middle of the night tossing out cookies, fruits and a myriad of other snacks in the hopes that these creatures would take them. Not once did I physically see one of these man-beasts take one of our treats. However, in some of the following days a few of us found empty wrappers and what not but really no proof that they ate our foods despite that they were gone. I can say that the bigfoot are fascinated with the packaging because more often than not, we'd find the colorful packaging neatly folded (and sometimes tucked neatly within the vine growing up the side of some large tree). Well what does that have to do with anything right? Well, for one it establishes that they are dexterous AND that they must have a thumb. Which in turn means that it is a thinking "manimal."
I was fortunate enough a while back to hear two or more of these creatures chatting with each other. The only way that I can describe what was heard was a gibberish akin to that of very fast Japanese. Many other researchers have described similar auditory encounters. So, this tells us that they have a language of sorts. Again this requires some degree of intelligence.
For my taste, the best form of intelligence that these creatures perform is "elusiveness" or covertness if you will. How does something described as weighing well in excess of 500 lbs. that is stinky and hairy dissuade the majority of the general public in to thinking it doesn't exist? This is truly a master cunning on this creatures part. in part, the bigfoot almost certainly will use the night to help conceal itself (themselves). But as with any animal of the night, darkness is not always available when movement is necessary. This can be witnessed with armadillos, opposum and sometimes bats just to mention a few who mainly depend on the cloak of night to meddle around for food sources. They bigfoot have to be skilled in covertness for day, evening and early morning. How many of us could perform this one task day in and day out without being detected? I think that this skill far outweighs any of their others.
I suspect that in bigfoot habituated areas(the place where rogue or family clans reside most often)that they are the kings and queens of their domain. However, what is the one thing that could wipe the bigfoot out? That's right! PEOPLE. These poor homins for whatever reason have chosen to remain just out of societies reach only to reveal themselves largely on whenever they please and not when we just simply want them to.
What's remarkable about this entire "shpeal" is that whenever our economy falls, when unemployment is at its highest level ever and when the people of this great nation are committing the nastiest of crimes just for survival; the bigfoot will go on with their lives as usual in the same manner that they have done for centuries if not millenia.

John Hogue: A Modern Day Prophet?
Last week The History Channel aired the infamous Doomsday Week. A gentelman by the name of John Hogue was featured on several of the shows. This was the first time I had the priviledge of listening to what this man had to say and so naturally I went to his website. Over the years I have loosely followed the writings and so-called predictions of Nostradamus but my interests have peaked after listening to Mr. Hogue on television. Some of you may be scratching your heads saying "dude...where have you been?", Hogue has been around forever! But in all honesty, just last week was the first I'd heard of him. For those of you that are like me ;), here is a short biography of Mr. John Hogue:
John Hogue writes about Nostradamus with the clarity and interpretive accuracy of a kindred prophet. He uses his own gift of future insight along with the geopolitical savvy of a Noam Chomsky to unravel the complex issues affectng us today. Voices such as these are needed in our times. In 1987, John Hogue wrote the book Nostradamus and the Millennium. It sold 700,000 copies and was translated into nine languages.
Twelve books and 20 years later his understanding of Nostradamus’ coded texts, as well as his grasp of the art of prophecy itself, has deepened with experience, earning him the distinction of being hailed the preeminent authority on Nostradamus and collective prophetic traditions. Hogue’s documented predictive track record into the new millennium has achieved an accuracy surpassing 80 percent.
Whitley Strieber, host of the popular DREAMLAND internet radio show, said this recently about an interview he did with John Hogue on air:
It was a startling session with Nostradamus prophet John Hogue, in which he displays knowledge of details of the situation in the middle east that are worthy of a geopolitical strategist or a military analyst. An entirely new side to this multifaceted man.
PLUS, he explains the explosive Iran situation in terms of Nostradamus’ prophecies in ways that will at once chill and fascinate you.
Many of those writing about prophecy and Nostradamus in particular, cash in on the sensational nature of the dire, sometimes gruesome images of the future described in those prophecies. The author John Hogue doesn’t shy away from a detailed look at how the future could be dire and full of doom. But he continuously reminds us of how we can avoid these prophecies, changing the hopelessness that is often accompanying the idea of an unavoidable future full of doom into a realistic starting point for change. Changing the present, as he says, is the only and best way of changing the future, which indeed will change once enough individuals decide to become conscious and act consciously instead of repeating the past like robots.

Is There A Majic Word To Attrack The Bigfoot?
I read a post over on another message board (and I'll not mention where); of someone asking if there is a "majic word" for calling bigfoot-type creatures in closer for viewing and observation by researchers. This is a good question and it utterly amazed me how "the bible" got worked into the responses to the individual's questions. But...that is another post within itself I suppose? Remarkably, TONALITY seemed to be given in most of the answers to the post in one variation or the other.
Tone is certainly a factor IF there is a majic word! However, other factors are being grossly overlooked with this individuals question. The word frequency comes to mind when trying to draw in relic homins. Frequency in that "the more you frequent an area, the more what is there becomes accustomed to you being there!" Really and truly, nothing haves to be vocalized. What if the researcher is deaf? What then? Well, the next factor is visualization. I have always known that the bigfoot 99.9% of the time will know of you are there long before you initialize any type of communication. If they are in the area, believe you me they have already spotted you (or smelled you). Visualization also ties back into frequency.
I personally had a group of bigfoot (consisting of 4-5) that recognized the sound of my vehicle rather than the sound of my voice (quite possibly, the clan recognized the shape and color of my car by "seeing"). When it comes down to it I think the answer to this individuals question will be......"Do what works....perform trial and error!" Methods that work for other researchers MAY NOT work for researchers in other areas of the country or world.

New Zealand: Bigfoot?
I caught an episode of Ghost Hunters International the other night. The team went to the only castle in New Zealand to investigate a few hauntings by its prior owner. Nonetheless, they did capture apparitions on film and a few sounds but as I watched; I realized that I have never heard of a bigfoot sighting coming from NZ. Do any readers know if they have bigfoot legends? If so, do they have a name for our hairy friend?

Tuklo Is RIGHT!
I just got through visiting my good friend Tuklo Nashoba's Blog. His main article deals with the coming (if not already here) depression that we are about to face not only as a nation....BUT as a world. Let me ask anyone these question: "How many of you could build a campfire from scratch?" Can you plant, nurture and grow a garden? Will you be able to distinguish a poisonous plant from one that is safe to eat? When you become homeless; will you be able to find or build shelter?
If you answered NO to the above questions then you are in for a world of hurt. Because "my gut" as well as others such as "Tuk" knows instinctively that these scenarios will most certainly play out if we as a human race don't change the methods in which we do things upon this Earth. Tuk's article has inspired me. Beginning this week; I will take one day out of my week and live as meager as I possibly can. Perhaps in six months I'll move up to two days. I'll call it "training for things to come!"
I'll leave this article with a few points to ponder:
• Despite what many believe and due to our pride and greed, the world is becoming a much warmer place environmentally to live
• People are so "in love" with themselves that helping others has pretty much become a thing of the past
• There have been more record storms in the last 10 years than in any other recorded time in history
• Droughts!
• Unemployment has reached all time highs!
• Wars
.......something to think about
