Ogopogo in Lake Okanagan

Posted by bigsky4 on August 30, 2008

Ogopogo is the “Loch Ness” of Lake Okanagan (pronounced O-Can-AAAAhhhh-Gan) in Kelowna, British Columbia (B.C), Canada.  

I swear I saw Ogopogo late on a Friday night. Then again, I also thought it was Canadian Boxing Day that night. I was up in the beautiful lake resort town of Kelowna visiting my favorite vendor (Enquiro). They told me about Ogopogo, but I didn’t believe them. They said stare at the water, but don’t blink. I laughed…. but I tried to keep my eyes open. All my attention was on that water for hours and hours. Then, right before sunset, I was about to blink, my eyes were completely dry, and right before my eyes shut, I saw something pop out of the water…. by the time my eyes shut and opened again, it was gone. I told everyone I was with, I know I saw Ogopogo. They were laughing at me…. can’t understand why. But, I tell you, I saw Ogo. Check it out:

Deer Grove Mountain Bike Trail

We were out on the Deer Grove Mountain Bike Trail in Deer Grove Forest Preserve Palatine Illinois. It is located on Quentin Road near Dundee Road in Palatine. A group of us went offroading, got a little muddy, and took a break to get this picture. Good times mountain biking at Deer Grove.

Bigfoot is real per CNN

Bigfoot is not a myth, but CNN proves that Bigfoot is real. The body of bigfoot was found in some kind of refrigerator…. I can’t believe it. And, just days after the Chupacabra was found. Weird things are happening.

(CNN) — A policeman and a former corrections officer say that on Friday they will unveil evidence of what they claim is their biggest find ever: the body of Bigfoot.

Chupacabra – Goat Sucker spotted in Cuero Texas

Posted by bigsky4 on August 13, 2008

Chupacabra Cuero Texas Mexican Goat Sucker

The Chupacabra has been spotted in Cuero, Texas. The “X-File” creature was filmed from a Dewitt County Trooper’s dash-cam.  Chupacabra, also known as the “Goat Sucker”, is supposedly a mythical creature that latin culture has embraced for centuries. Thanks to my brother-in-law, he found a clip on CNN that demistifies the lore:

This groundbreaking footage proves its existence. My humble opinion, it is real. And, I think it may have been created in the darker ages during times of Mexican liberation from a right-wing regime in some dungeon while testing gene splicing and cloning (a conspiracy well hidden from the rest of the world). They probably combined a coyote with a hairless cat, or maybe even a mutant rat with a chihuahua. Regardless, as you can see in the video, I think the tequila had something to do with it. Notice the water tower of Cuervo Mexico…. they forgot the “V”. Maybe it should be called a “V-File.
