Thank god for Freerepublic. I live in Bend and have never heard of any of this, however according to Weekly World News Hilary has named Bigfoot her running mate. At least I get some of the news reports before I red them here!
Hope they're not anywhere close to your house! ;-)
Well if you ever saw ME first thing in the morning you might believe I was Mrs. Bigfoot Monster!
On New years Day 2001, I was out target shooting in a remote area not far from my house with my .38 revolver and saw a man and woman in running type clothes walking along the side of sage brush covered hill about 500 yards away. I held my fire until they went over the hill before I began firing again.
After firing a few cylinders full I noticed another person walking along the same slope as the couple and thought to myself, "What is this a freeway around here," as this is a very remote area. I suddenly dawned on me that this "person" was much taller than the couple I had seen and appeared to glide effortlessly along the same slope that the couple had struggled to hike along as there is no real trail there, just an animal path. He, or it, was dark colored and I could see no signs of clothing (unlike the couple), just a dark shape moving rapidly along the hillside.
As I said it was about 500 yards away so I could not make out any details or features, but it moved so quickly along the slope that I could not help but stare at it. I lost sight when it went over the crest of the hill. I only wish that I had gone to look for tracks afterward.
The sighting gave me an uneasy feeling, as the sound of my gunshots seemed to have no effect on it, and I have been vary in that area ever since.
Cool! Bookmarked.
Please notify me via FReepmail if you would like to be added to or taken off the Oregon Ping List.
Of course, we faithfull watchers of the Six Million Dollar Man know Bigfoot to be an alien.
Hmmmm? Bill Clinton shoes are size 13. Could he be the father?
People searching for Japanese holdouts from WWII in the jungles of the Pacific have had better luck.
Why not bring along a tracking dog?
Don't be too surprised if you get a few takers. One night in a chat room two of us Hoosiers were joking around about "snipe hunting" and we had several offers to pay us to take them on a snipe hunt. Funniest thing you ever saw.
Caution, there is a bird called a snipe.
Snipe are listed in the Oregon game bird regulations.
I have hunted, killed, and eaten them.
I have hunted but never killed one. Never even winged one. Darn things must be the toughest bird to hit there is.
It's the same as for Blackfoot Indians.
The more cultured members of the species insist on "Bigfoote".
Why is it that after seeing a sasquatch or, coming across tracks of one, nobody ever thinks to bring in tracking dogs?
By the looks of your map, Bigfoot has been spotted in the Portland area. Someone probably just saw some hairy lesbians. Does Bigfoot drive a Volvo with a rainbow John Kerry sticker on the bumper?
I don't know how to get threads started, but saw in our Seattle newspaper an article on an 'apelike" foot found in a landfill in Spotsylvania (in the state of Pennsylvania?). Here's a comment from another website:
