The Flutie Pass Incident (Primal Rage Review)

Image
So, because I'm sure every Footie in the world is either blogging or vlogging about the movie Primal Rage today. (and I'm going to read them all because that is what I do)  I'm going to tell you a different tale. A tale about a series of unfortunate events that took place while trying to get to and from this movie. My sister and I headed out at 5:30 for a 7:00 movie in Framingham Ma. Beautiful night, the sun was shinning. We stopped at a Dunkin Donuts for a coffee to smuggle in. (later we discovered it was toilet paper we should have smuggled in). The said Dunkin was closed. Dunkin never closes! This should have been a red flag for us. We are very well known in these parts for getting into ridiculous situations. But we continued. This movie was one night only after all. My sister was driving my car. And the current placement of my steering wheel was making her crazy. She went to pull the lever to move my wheel and inadvertently popped my hood. (did I mention while driving

Knock Three Times on the Cedar if you Want me...

Twice on the Pine, if you ain't gonna show.. https://youtu.be/wT5ms2Nvpco So, though this knocking thing may prove useful for lovers in the same appt building. How effective is it in the wild?  Cryptozoologists have long thought that this knocking is a form of communication amongst the hominid species. But what in the known world could it be compared too? Drumming sounds are often used as nonverbal communication by several different species. We humans use it as a signal to communicate its time for something. Dinner bell, time for ritual or ceremony to start, etc. (hopefully not the sacrificial kind people) Knocking on doors to announce our arrival. As a drummer since the age of 8 myself. I used it often to vent my displeasure in certain situations.  Primates are also known for using it to communicate something to others across longer distances. To show dominance or to defend territory.  Rats use their feet tapping on the floor to communicate. Birds knock on trees. Etc. If B

Our Own Worst Enemy: The Saturation of Sasquatch

Oh Bigfoot, one of the most beloved legends in my lifetime. But is there a chance we love him to much? Now that we are in the age of internet, I see him everywhere. He’s a marketing mascot, staring in major motion pictures, you tube videos, podcasts, websites and even, yes I’ll say it. My own blog.  But with all the sightings doubling every year and all the hoaxing going on, are we making him a laughing stock? Is he up there with the Jolly Green Giant and Tony the Tiger? Now when you say, “OMG I saw Bigfoot!” Everyone is rolling their eyes because they hear it every day. And you know they are thinking, “yeah sure you did, I did too on the television just this morning”. Now I’m not saying anyone is making it up. I have no doubt they saw something. But at the rate he is being seen. I should be banging into him at the local convenience store getting a slushee . ( now I totally want one, cherry). We should all stop for a second and think. Okay is that really what I saw? What are the c

And you DON'T Believe in Bigfoot?!

So, you still don’t believe in Bigfoot?...Well that’s fine.  With all the crazy creatures floating around in this world ... Bigfoot is the no go. Our own existence on this planet is something that should cause us to say "hmmm". How are we here? Why do we look the way we do? Just what makes us tick? That is where belief comes in. Some put their existence all on heavenly cards...while others put it all on the scientific ones. So, who is right or wrong? If our own existence is still somewhat in question, why would other creatures seem so far fetched? Have you seen some of the unbelievable creatures that live on the land, in water, and in the sky? I will tell you this...I would (and do) believe in a Sasquatch before I would believe in some of these creatures that are actually already established as real. Let’s explore some, shall we... The Barreleye Fish. Not sure, but I think I can see it’s BRAIN!!!! The Goblin Shark..Really! This is real!

What would Bigfoot's Blog Look Like? Take 2

Bigfoot blog #1 I was just wandering through the forest. It was just one of those days. The sun is out and there was a nice breeze blowing softly. I arrived at my favorite spot to think. What the hell?! There on my favorite tree, I see a pile of junk. A pile of rocks, oranges and some kind of note. Looks like maybe a picture too. Why? Why is someone messing with me today?! I just threw the rocks out of the way. I took a branch and whacked all the stuff right off. But the smell?! Guess I have to move on and find another spot to hang. Better let the family know. Time to find a new spot. Bigfoot Blog # 2 Bath day. Time to get my stink on. While I was on my way to the watering hole. I saw some strange tracks. They were kind of small and they looked like they had no toes. No toes! What kind of animals has no toes?! I followed them for a while and they led to some strange pathway. It was hard, dark and looked endless. Better not tell anyone. They wouldn't believe me.  Bigfoot
