A New Life Form Discovered, a Germ

This new bacteria was just discovered, found, in a salty lake in California.
"So What!" You say. "What's it got to do with our subject on Ballyhoo: bigfoot?"

Well, the article by Maggie Fox, the editor of Health and Science, says, "The finding shows just how little scientists know about the variety of life forms on Earth ..."

While Shopping ... Bigfoot

Illustration by Photoxpress

Yesterday while shopping I had an interesting conversation. I’d overheard the words “When I was with the Forest Service.” So, I went in search of that person, thinking to ask him what he thought of this bigfoot situation. I never found him but did speak to an older gentleman after he’d gone through the check out line.

As he carefully placed his folding money in his wallet, he looked over his glasses at me and said “No he wasn’t the one I’d overheard.” I sensed he wouldn’t mind talking, so I continued. He did say as he rolled his cart toward the door with me by his side, that at one time in his working life he worked in the forest for a short time.

Oh good, I said to myself, I’ll ask him, anyway, about bigfoot. He doesn’t stop rolling his cart as I tell him that I write a column for the local paper about bigfoot. Once I asked him if he’d seen one while working in the forest, he chuckled and said, “No.”

I couldn’t, of course, keep from saying, “You know, one day people won’t laugh at the mention of bigfoot.” He didn’t know what to say at that. He kept pushing his cart toward the door. I told him we expected an announcement about bigfoot soon that should help with the “discovery” of the animal.

This is when the shopping cart came to an all but screeching halt, and he said something close to this:“You know, I think they could bring one of these things in dead, with a sign clutched in its fist saying, ‘I’m real, see I’m real.’ And they still wouldn’t buy that the animal exists. ’ ”

While he spoke, I was walking away waving a friendly hand back at him, and added, “You might be right. You just might be right.”

Thanks Amy for the "I love this site!!!"

Amy has left a new comment on your post "A Comment":


I love this site!!! I have come here not knowing what to expect. I like the way different ideas get the same treatment and respect. So many nowadays seem to have one idea on what bigfoot might be. Until we find one for testing we all are just guessing on it.

The question is, do humans have the right to kill, test or capture another being just because we don't know what it might be? I would like to think that all animals are a part of creation and leave it at that.

Great comment, Amy. I agree with your comment, but in the case of this huge being bigfoot, I simply believe that if the government (broadly speaking) knows about the being, we have the right to know about it. I guess I'm just adding to your thoughts on the subject. Thanks for visiting this blog and please return often. ... LNP

If bigfoot lives in the wild, shouldn't we be told. We know about these two animals, so why can't "they" tell us about bigfoot? Hmmm ... LNP
