Rather like Hannity’s “Bombshells”
The critters (there's more than one, or there's zero) are probably what the Irish call "Horse Eels", very large eels (horselike heads) that used to inhabit the streams and rivers of the British Isles, and in modern times used to get stuck in the water channels of locks once in a while and have to be cut out. There are various local tales from the early middle ages, here and there, of the dragons or worms slain by this or that local hero. Loch Ness has more water than all the streams and rivers of England and Wales combined, so they've managed to persist there. All that's needed is a type specimen. :^)
The funny thing is that's the correct orientation and general outline of Drumnadhochit bay and Drumnadrochit castle. And the Loch Ness Monster Exhibit and Museum would be about where Homer and Burns are standing.
Matt Groening sometimes does crazy accurate stuff like that. Like there was an Itchy and Scratchy episode where one loaded the other into a small single-engine airplane, which proceeded to crash.
The small single was an "anatomically correct" Beech 35 Bonanza, AKA "the forked-tail doctor killer." And the name painted on the fuselage was "American Pie," same as the V-35 that Buddy Holly & the Big Bopper died in, inspiring the eponymous Don McClean song.
I believe Loch Ness Monster...I believe in Champ, too. Champ is the Nessie of Lake Champlain... Samuel Champlain saw it...
There is also chessie of the Chesapeake. And Chelsea from the deep depth of satan’s hubelscope.
Please contact the local Zygon representative for inquiries about the Skarasen.
Commisioner McMillan exposed the scam back in the 70s.
I have a trip booked to Scotland in September. And yes, a visit to Loch Ness. I’m soooo excited!
My son lives in Scotland. Wonderful people, beautiful place.
If you get a chance, do some ghost tour. They tell you a lot about the history of the middle class and the poor. They’re very interesting.
Very cool. We’ll see. We’re only in Edinburgh 2 days and already have a lot booked.
