My Thoughts on Big Foot. Are they real?

I started hearing about Big Foot when I lived in Louisiana.  I was a teenager when I lived in Rodessa, Louisiana and had heard many stories about the Faulk, Arkansas Monster. Since Faulk was just a hop and a jump from where I lived, I was very attentive when I walked in the swamps. I had been way back in the swamps and had felt as if I was being watched many times. It was one of those things where maybe a sound, a smell or just a feeling that something was watching me, making the hair stand up on the back of my neck.

I remember one night, I was walking to my friends house, who just lived about a half mile down the road. I was excited to be going there to play pool with my friends. Ervin, James, Leroy and Gary Humphrey. If you have ever walked along Highway 1 in North West Louisiana, you know how that the road is elevated with a ditch on each side and the swamp stretches for miles. So, I was walking along and it was almost pitch black. The stars were peaking thru the pines and then I heard steps to my right. Big Steps. Not four legged but two legged! I could hear branches cracking and breaking. I smelled a smell that was a bit sulfuric and musky. I couldn't see it but it was big! I could tell because of the noise that it was making. It was keeping pace with me. I was running but it was walking in big strides! Okay! To say the least I was scared! I turned down the road to the Humphries, who lived by the rail road tracks and made record time to their house! I was banging at the door with my fist! Hollering, "Let me in!"

Leroy opened the door with a smile and then saw my face! He ask me, "Dang, Ray, whats the matter? You look like you saw a ghost!" I was still trying to catch my breath. I answered him, "I think Big Foot was chasing me or the Faulk Arkansas Swamp Monster has come North!" He smacked me on the back, "Stop it! Your Bull Crapping Me!" He laughed and led me back to the Pool Table room in the back of the house. All the boys were there and I recounted my story. They, being all woodsmen and men of the world just laughed it off but suffice it to say, I had them drive me home when it come time to go.

As of late, I have been viewing the show, "Finding Big Foot." It does interest me.
                                                                http://www.bfro.net/
I have seen the video clips of Big Foot. I have seen the foot and hand prints cast that have been taken. I am a believer. If had just been the Gimble tap and that was it, then I would have put it off as being a hoax. There has been thousands of accounts of Big Foot. There are thousands of pieces of Evidence, Hair, DNA, Video, Audio tape. Even the Bible tells of Giants that walk the Earth.

This show though Finding Big Foot interest me but it also frustrates me. Renee, Bobo, Cliff and Mr. Moneymaker, all of them frustrate me. Renee, the skeptic, or is she? Her Father was a big foot hunter. She comes off as a skeptic but then when their are howls or knocks in the night, she doesn't seem like one. Bobo, who is just....a Bobo, stumbles and bumbles thru the woods which would scare the crap out of anything that is around that night! Cliff and MoneyMaker seem to be very knowledgable but also everything seems to be a big foot.

I have seen them use Guitars, Bands, Disco lights, Girl Scouts and Hill Billys to lure in a Big Foot. They use knocks and then they use Howls.

                                                      Now wait a minute! 

If you are a Big Foot, you have lived in the woods all of your life! You know every noise there is that is made in the woods. Don't you think that a big foot can distinguish between a Big Foot howl and a human trying to sound like a big foot howl?

I believe if I was going to find Big Foot, I would go into the forest about 12:00 PM when the Big Foots are asleep in a cave or in one of their little huts. I would have listening devices and movement sensors as well as cameras that circled the camaflouged encampment. We would be silent as could be with hardly a whisper.  I would put out a cornicopia of food that would be covered by cameras and movement sensors. Of course you will bring in other critters that are hungry but the word gets around that there is free food a Big Foot will show.

 I would have a tracker on my team that could track a fart in a wind storm! I would have 24 hour surveillance on the food and on the trails leading thru that quadrant. I would be there, invisible for about a month. If I was going to do a howl, I would use an Audio blast of a real Big Foot. You could also do audio blast of a deer in distress. Do NOT go stumbling around in the dark, looking for a Big Foot. They will always see you first. They can smell you. Try and use a scent that smells like doe urine. That might bring them in looking for a deer. Fry up some bacon. Couldn't hurt. You will get their pictures! Not maybe but you will! You don't want to cage these beings or hurt them. They can hurt you if they want to! You are NEVER going to surprise them. If you did, I don't think that it would end well.

Here's an idea. Since they are nocturnal in habit maybe they are like cats, who can see in the dark as well? There have been stories of them making a fire. They make little huts to sleep in. They can climb a tree. There are videos of them climbing trees. They are primate you know. They can swim. Their sense of smell, hearing and sight are impeccable. They do communicate to each other in a language. They knock to communicate where they are. They howl to let other Squatches know of their territory or as a warning. That's the reason why that when the BFRO howl the Squatches go silent. They howl when the BFRO get close to their territory. They are saying, "Stay away!" The stone throws are a warning that you are too close. The branch snapping is also a warning. It's a territorial sign.

The BFRO will Never catch one or see one because they are not patient. They are too loud and they stomp around the woods like a herd of buffalo! They don't want to find a big foot because when they do....their show is over and they get no more funding!

                                             What are your thoughts? 

                            Have you ever seen a Big Foot? 

                                     Tell me your story!

                                 Happy Safe Squatching!

The Seattle Seahawks Verses The Boston Patriots....David and Goliath?

Last week, I watched the game between the Seahawks and the Packers. I was so amazed at the comeback of the Seahawks! Everyone had written them off as the losers. Even the Packers were doing early celebration on the side lines.
I told my wife, "Sonia, the only way for the Seahawks to win this game is to get the ball back with the on side kick." I was shocked to see them do just that!
I thought that they showed so much heart and can do attitude in this game. There was no doubt who the Champions were! Between Russell Willis's prowess at Quarterback and Lynch as a legendary running back as well as their front line to protect, they got the job done! There was no Inflate-a-gate just good hardworking football.

I also watched the Patriots slaughter the Colts. Inflate-a-gate or not, the Colts had no chance of winning.  Dropped passes a plenty on the side of the Colts. Tom Brady of the Pats was legendary as Usual. I am NOT a Pats fan but they are the real deal. I believe that Tom Brady has a photographic mind. He always checks the photos of the defensive strategy and positions. You will notice how he does a lot of options when calling his plays. His Front line is legendary in the way they protect him in the pocket. I don't care how good your quarterback and recievers are if you have no time to snap the ball and look at your options down the field you can not have any luck in the passing game.

If the Quarterback can run, that changes the whole paradymn of the game! That's what Russell Willis brings to the game. You have to have a "Spy" position on the defense to keep watch on the Quarterback to insure he doesn't make the run!

The majority of the readers are rooting for the Patriots but I really like the chances for the Seahawks to win this! I believe that it will be close but the deep seated heart of the Seahawks will prevail!
