Anomalous Headlines

  • Voice of Reason: The Reality of Bigfoot



  • Rare Woodpecker Search Sheds Light on Bigfoot

  • Editorial: Making Peace with the Patterson/Gimlin Movie

    Usually on this blog, I prefer to talk about all kinds of aspects of the Sasquatch or Bigfoot mystery, whether it is footprints or hair samples or fecal matter or even the personalities in this hunt, or even different behavioral aspects of these unknown hairy bipeds. These are things I like to discuss or editorialize about, and I don't mind sharing info with people. However, one thing that I am somewhat reticent to discuss is the old chestnut of the Patterson/Gimlin Movie because it happened forty years ago and there's not too much more that can be gleaned from it. I just think there is so much more to talk about a lot of the time than some 40-year-old film which seems to be the subject that everyone gets around to discussing, whether it is on a forum or chatroom or Internet Radio program. I really don't know why it bothered me so much to hear it discussed so often, when there were other things to talk about. However, I have come to make peace with the constant discussion of it recently because I realize this is the 40th anniversary this year and it is unavoidable to discuss it. I have to acknowledge to myself that as much of an old chestnut as it is, it is, like it or not, the best piece of evidence we have until something comes along that's better. I just need not to get so uptight when I hear the name pop up on an Internet Radio Show because it is basically unavoidable to talk about it. I know there are other researchers out there who would choose to focus on the here and now, and that is what we should do, but at the same time we need acknowledge that this subject is going to come up whether we like it or not, so we must grin and bear it and not get so uptight. So, would it be fair to say that I have made peace with the P/G Movie? Yes, I think it would be.

    Review: The Sasquatch Triangle 6-28-07

    This was a great show, with filmmaker/producer Pat Holdbrook discussing his productions and One Step Beyond Reality.com He discussed the Patterson/Gimlin Movie and the work on it done by M.K. Davis, as well as his thoughts on the Bigfoot mystery in general. Pat also answered questions from various listeners as well, including myself. It was a fun show and I enjoyed it. The next program will begin at a special start time of 10:00 EST/9:00 Central next Thursday night, with Skeptical Inquirer contributor Michael Dennett. The show can be found at the link to the right, so please remember to tune in and support great research.

    Sasquatch Triangle Tonight...

    Don will have as his guest Pat Holdbrook, filmmaker/producer of Bigfoot: An Encounter with Reality and founder of One Step Beyond Reality. The show begins at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central and can be found at the link to the right. I hope everyone tunes in and supports great research.

    Review: Destination Truth 6-27-07

    This was a short-30-minute segment on the Malaysian Mawas (or Johor Hominid), Malaysia's version of Bigfoot. Josh Gates, the host, interviews different witnesses and locals about their experiences and sightings. Then, he and his team hit the jungle to search for their own evidence of the Johor Hominid's existence. They find a large track with five toes (quite misshapen from America's version), and also capture some sort of growl on audiotape which cannot be identified. The footprint is cast and a copy of it is made because the original cast cannot be taken out of the country. That cast is taken to Dr. Jeff Meldrum, who finds it interesting, but ultimately inconclusive. The recording is taken to a zoologist who listens to it intently but cannot readily identify it. I would give this segment about 3 out of five stars. I would certainly rank it above the "Sci-Fi Investigates" program which looked at Bigfoot last Fall.

    Just a reminder-all the Bigfoot shows are available on iTunes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Decision...

    I have decided, based on the extremely steep price for a ticket, to skip the upcoming Patterson/Gimlin Movie 40th-Anniversary Symposium. A ticket is $225.00, and I just do not think I can pay that much for it. I may just decide to save up for Don Keating's 20th-Annual Eastern Ohio Bigfoot Conference instead and use the frequent-flyer miles for that. It will certainly be a sacrifice because it is a once-in-a-lifetime thing, if only to meet Bob Gimlin or John Green, but I will survive. I am not asking anyone to boycott it, nor am I discouraging anyone not to attend, but for me, it is too much, so Jason, thanks but no thanks. I do wish you luck with the Symposium though.

    Review: Squatch Detective Radio 6-25-07

    This was a pretty good show, with Steve and Billy just kind of playing off each other and discussing the latest Bigfoot news. Billy read a recent editorial he wrote over the air, and he and Steve answered questions from myself and Bill Green. It was a pretty enjoyable show, one worth listening to. The next show will perhaps have a guest, next Monday, 9:00 EST/8:00 Central, at the link which can be found in the list to the right. I hope everyone will tune in and support great research.

    Strange sounds heard in the night

    Late last night, I was outside checking on my kittens who sleep in one of our sheds, when I distinctly heard what sounded like a flat piece of wood being beaten against another piece of wood. It did it several times then quit. My mother told me just a few minutes ago that she heard it late-yesterday afternoon, so it makes me wonder. I am not saying it was a Sasquatch, because neither of us saw it, but it is strange.
