Sasquatch

Here's something not to miss.  This is recent enhancement of some of the Patterson Footage from the late 60s.  New technology is even catching up to old evidence:

Not too shabby except the drycleaning tag hanging out the back ruins it...

[Rowdy]

Besides, it says on that website to note the mid-thorax area devoid of hair and the swinging breasts...

That could be any number of Tulsans.

It's not dry cleaning...look closer:


"Patterson Frame # 79 machine wash cold only"

Wah...waah.  She must have laid on that tag at some picnic area or something, don't you think?  

Patty never looked better!  Bless the ol' girl's heart.  Please don't pick on her now, she's come so far.

[Rowdy]

Hey, the proof's there. I agree technology has not been kind however to ol' Patty...

[xjay]

Ahh, youse guys, lol!  

Hey Rowdy, where were you when I needed you.  There were some folks who claimed that they could not "see" the Bigfoot in my game cam photo.  I thought as a visual aid, instead of the some ol' red lines over the pic, it would be more helpful to do some of the following to the pic:

-sunglasses

--bow tie

--Santa Stocking Cap

--lipstick on lips & long eyelashes on eyes.

--propeller cap on the juvenile Sasquatch.

Are you up to it?

"Are you up to it?" - xjay

Dude, it's already been done - take a look at Tay's website. Shoot, I'll bet he's even got BF with a boner.

Warning, all photo's will resemble Tay - as of course we all know, BF does not exist.

[xjay]

I'm sorry to have to ask, but who is Tay, and can you give a link to the site?  I'm all atingle with anticipation. [xx(]

[jdb]

" I'm all atingle..." - xjay

Tay has that effect on most everyone but it's not a good kind of tingling.

Don't go looking, you will be disappointed, jdb

[xjay]

Hey, I can't judge if I don't have a look...so post the link, please!

There will be a new documentary to be aired on the Discovery Channel / Thurs, Feb 1st @ 8 pm / "Best Evidence-Sasquatch".

[xjay]

I don't understand why "Best Evidence" did not mention dermal ridges, (after all, finger prints are evidence) but the program seemed to leave the debate over Sasquatch's existence at 50/50...which is a far cry from claiming there is no such thing.  I have to try to watch these documentaries as though I don't already know that these creatures exist, it's less painful that way, lol.

Why there was a waste of time with duck-duck-duck tests and why some anthropologist insist on assigning gorilla like qualities (like a divergent great toe, and a vegetarian diet) to Sasquatch is a greater mystery than Sasquatch itself.

None of the discovered Sasquatch tracks show a divergent great toe, so why scratch one's head and claim that it simply must have one?  Also, a Sasquatch-Sasquatch-Sasquatch-BEAR! test would have made more sense than duck-rabbit.

Since Bigfoot does walk upright, and not on all fours, it comes as no surprise that an actor could spend a couple of hours being coached to mimic the gait of the Sasquatch subject from the Patterson Footage.  Instead of 30 ft on a smooth floor, however, the actor should have been taken to the site of the footage and observed as to whether or not he could keep up the gait through sand for 50 ft.  That would have seemed a little more scientific, IMO.

The bottoms of the feet of the Patterson Footage subject do look lighter in color, but a video expert should have been consulted about this, not a make-up artist.  The sand the subject was walking on also looked to be about the same shade of grey.  It looks like glare.  If you were to shave the hair off of a gorilla, the newly exposed skin is white as milk...so hmmm.

All in all, I enjoyed the show and I am glad that documentaries like this one are being aired and informing the general public about the serious scientific research that is being conducted on this subject.

[Rowdy]

[:O] Wait!  Am I financing this "scientific research"?

[xjay]

Nope.  And now you are about to explain why it's a good thing that it is not, because...

[xjay]

Here's a new story out of CA in the news.  I wonder if Dr. Meldrum is the scientist studying the footprint casts?
