No “American Idol” blogging. Not here. Instead, you get this story of a Pennsylvania Big Foot expedition. Favorite paragraph:
Eric Altman, of Jeannette, hasn’t had a sighting of the elusive creature, but he’s heard unidentifiable sounds and tracked miles of large inhuman footprints in the woods of central and western Pennsylvania.
I think I can help you with those “unidentifiable sounds,” Eric. That’s the rest of the country chortling at you and your dorky Sasquatch-tracking buddies. The footprints I can’t help you with. Freakishly big bunnies, maybe?
It could have been my size-15 clodhoppers, but I’ve never been in PA.
Freaky.
15s!? Damn, I’m at 13, and I thought my feet were huge.
Of course, I’m only 5’1”….
“In the summer of 2000, I was investigating a Bigfoot sighting in Bradford County when I heard growling, mumbling, raspy breathing and heavy footfalls in the woods,” said Altman, who, along with his wife, Kathy, are the director and secretary, respectively, of the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society. “In some sightings, people have reported hearing it sound like a woman screaming.”
I had the same experience back home in in Michigan, but it turned out to be Michael Moore. [rimshot]
