What are you worried about?Originally posted by XRpredator
Hell, I still get a little shiver up my spine just thinkin' about it! :eek: Seriously, I've got that creepy feeling!
By Woodsrider:
Those accounts of local indian tribes reporting this creature long ago, before the white man showed up, are bogus. Remember these people also believed in the Thunderbird.
Story from Earthfiles website about recent big bird sightings in Alaska:
1) "I was amazed recently to hear of the bird with the 14 ft. wingspan had been sighted by others in other States. It was back in November 1993. I took my son hunting over at the area where Northern Nevada, Utah, and Idaho come together. It is a rather remote area of Utah at a place called Mahogany Spring with a few ranchers in the area, but little else except desert.
My son and I were driving on a dirt road traveling back to an area we wanted to check out for deer, as that is what we were hunting, and off to the right of the vehicle about 100 yds., I saw this large dark animal sitting on a knoll, and I remember saying to my son, 'Look at the bear, son, up on that small hill.' We both watched it for a few minutes. I also made the remark that I didn't think that there were black bears in the west desert of Utah.
Just as I said this, the so-called bear spread its wings and started to fly from the area. We were totally flabbergasted when this happened, as I knew I had never heard of a bird this large. It stood about four feet tall when it was perched on the ground and I estimated that each wing was just shy of being twice that length (or about 14 feet across). I couldn't get this bird off my mind, and haven't since. I thought it was just a gigantic Golden Eagle that was a freak of nature. It fits the description that was given in your report to a tee. Best wishes, Martin"

I believe that in all these stories there may be a kernal of truth that has been stretched a tad or two. :)

Well, as we were sure the end was near, we stood watching as a possum made it's way from the ass of the cow! Yeah, no zoombie bovine....no end of times.....just a possum that had made it's way into the intrils of the rotted host for a lil snack.

By KWJamsparting the Red Sea and raising the dead and that whole rapture thing.
Well if you were eating the same diet as the Native Americans I'm sure you'd have a tall tale or three. Remember the peyote scene from Young Guns?Originally posted by KWJams
I guess it would be pretty easy to dismiss all storys as narcotic induced hallucinations.
