About Gum: The Rule of Gum

A HINT TO FIT INTO POLITE SOCIETY

To be polite one should not chew gum in public. One should not snap his gum. One should wrap used gum in a piece of paper and put it in a trashcan. Never, never stick the gum under a table, chair or the like. And never pry a piece of gum from one of these places and chew it yourself. Most mothers, fathers, teachers and so on have made this clear, but if you've slipped by without hearing this, consider yourself TOLD!

Just an Opinion: Bigfoot

This site is dedicated to Dale Saxton, the late Dale Saxton. He died two years ago this February. If you would like to read more about him click the link above. Saxton was a bigfoot believer but he never saw one. His friend and fellow bigfoot researcher, Bill Emery did get to see a bigfoot (Aug. 8, 2010). And Saxton's son, Cole Saxton, didn't see the animal but was involved in the Aug. 8th sighting. He didn't get to join the two men that did see the animal because of a cough. Use the search tool to read more about the all night stand that Emery and the late Parchell took to finally see the animal they named Big Clyde.

Newspaper Column

In the first week of February, 2012, it will have been four years that Linda Newton-Perry along with her husband, Christopher Perry, began writing this column. How does one decide to write a bigfoot column? It certainly wasn’t a lifelong interest for either of us. I grew up in California and Kansas and didn’t hear of bigfoot until I was living in Oregon. Christopher, as well, can’t recall being aware of bigfoot until after our move. We moved to Oregon in 1969. As you know, the Patterson-Gimlin bigfoot film had been in circulation since 1967, and a lesser known bigfoot “discovery” was the dead bigfoot found under a log in Oregon after the Columbus Day Storm of 1962, where photos were confiscated and the bigfoot body sent to several agencies, including the Smithsonian. Information, however, of the 1962 “find” was never shared with the public. It has been said that a photo of this dead animal was tacked to the wall or door of a local cafe until it burned down. So, who knows how many people have viewed that photo? If you would like to read more about the Columbus Day animal go to our online bigfoot magazine, Bigfoot Ballyhoo and use the search tool to find many articles about it (www.bigfootballyhoo.blogspot.com).



To our surprise, we found the state of Oregon was steeped in bigfoot lore, from its Native American population, to its rail-line workers and its city dwellers who enjoyed the mountains in leisure pursuits. So, four years ago, when we gave up our interest in the local paper, I wanted to keep my hand in writing for it; this required a subject to write about. The editor of the paper, Jean Ivey, did not believe in bigfoot. As a matter of fact, she rolled her eyes each time I mention the animal. Ivey soon sold the paper. Becky Holm, the new owner, needing columnists to fill the “white space”, allowed our off-the-wall column. For a short time this column was in three local papers, including Jean Ivey’s paper she was affiliated with, The Coquille Valley Sentinel, now The Sentinel.


A few months after we started the newspaper column, we began the online bigfoot magazine, Bigfoot Ballyhoo. The blog was put in place to help with information for the column. The blog and column work well together. We appreciate all the comments on the blog, letters and greetings. Till next week, keep talking bigfoot.

How I'd Try to Catch a Glimpse of Bigfoot

On the TV program Finding Bigfoot last week, the team used a fake deer to entice bigfoot to “come out, come out.” I was thinking if I were to try to fool bigfoot into showing himself, what prop or ploy would I use.

Well, we think we know bigfoot sleeps in the daytime. I say wake him up, make noise. We’ve been told that he enjoys watching children and women. I think I’d make some stick figures of a woman and a child, clothe them and play a video of children laughing.

 I’d hide and watch for the big animal to see if it wakes and goes searching for the voices. If this worked,  I’m sure he would be lurking behind trees and darting from one to the next, getting as near as possible to the stick figures.

I’d do this in the daytime. I’m hardly ever out in the forest at night, so this plan would work best for me. What do you think? Think it would work?

About Comments on This Site

A so-called fact that seems to prove that Linda Newton-Perry makes up many of the comments on this site: People comment on comments that no one but the one commenting sees.

I (Linda Newton-Perry) will occasionally comment on a comment that I have not allowed to be posted. I have been known to take off a comment by a reader after giving it thought.

And then there is the ongoing claim this whole site is made up by Linda Newton-Perry.  The truth is▬I do not make up comments. I do not make up people or groups of people. And that is “the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.”  (This post is addressing a comment that I did not allow on the site.)

If Bigfoot were ...

If bigfoot were a tiny animal, who would care about him? Let us not forget that bigfoots begin life small, and maybe even tiny. In our forests and woods, must live young bigfoots. How many? No one knows. If you are like me, you can not wait for "science" to take these animals seriously.

One report I remember reading is where a person came near to stepping on a young bigfoot, sleeping near a hiking path and  covered in leaves. Some believe young bigfoots look like chimps. But again, who knows. Maybe what the hiker observed was a chimp.

What do you think? How important do you believe the discovery of bigfoot is to the world? to you? to anybody? Comment please.
