Topic: Tales of the mysterious and Unexplained

The day after we were posting here, I was talking to a woman about New Orleans. But, we'd been strictily talking about 'cultural' aspects of it. Then out of nowhere she brought up that when her friend was little she'd seen the Honey Island Swamp Monster. *snorts* freaky! ..it was weird how the conversation took that turn o_O Then I scared myself on my way home that night

St. Augustine Monster

The St. Augustine Monster is the name given to a large unidentified carcass, originally postulated to
be the remains of a gigantic octopus, that washed ashore on the United States coast near St. Augustine,
Florida, in 1896. It is sometimes referred to as the Florida Monster or St. Augustine Giant Octopus, and is
one of the earliest recorded examples of a globster.
A globster, or blob, is an unidentified organic mass that washes up on the shoreline of an ocean or other body of water.

^ LOL @ 'blob' definition

I still can't see where anyine lists the size of the new find. Someone says it's a nutrino, but it looks way too big (even bloated).

[MisterAJ]

There was someone who made some drawings, based on the photography...

I'm betting they are exaggerated...

[Skadi]

heh..well that's bigger then any dog I've seen also. Unless it was a Hellhound

I think some things are hoaxes, and others are explained away by the Men In Black so not to panic the populous. lol

too true 

Or else they're so obviously real they're stored in massive crates and containment units somewhere. But it couldn't be anywhere unobvious. It would have to be somewhere massively obvious so they'd think they were playing reverse psychology with us..Somewhere like the Wendover plan hangar in Utah

I know back in the 60s and 70s the Air Force here in America hid away alot of investigative material .
Project Bluebook investigated hundreds of sightings and no matter what they said it was weather balloons and luminous swamp gas.
Cant let the population know we arent alone.
Its just ignorance that we are the only life in the universe.
I once met a cryptozoologist that ran into alot from the American Zoological Society about his investigations ( look up Dr. Gary Morgan) saying he jumped to too many conclusions.
 The scietific and investigative societies are very jealouse about their personal egos.

Wendover plan hangar in Utah

oops. sorry. That was unnecessarily vague. Plus, I misspelled ?plane? as plan

Wendover is an airplane hangar. Specifically the one that housed the Enola Gay. But its location has the typical remote desert vibe. Plus, because of its design, it just begs to be used as a giant storage facility. It looks like a U-Store-it self storage unit for mysterious government cover-up evidence. So obvious, that it?s unobvious

The scientific and investigative societies are very jealous about their personal egos.

And THAT is so destructive for us, as a species...

 Who here considers Christopher Columbus as the man who discovered that the world was round,
and discovered the "new world"..? read behind the spoiler, and you'll probably learn something new...

Spoiler (hover to show)

If you thought that, or was going to jump in saying "The Vikings came first", your wrong...

Vikings did sail to the new world, but the first ones, as far we know, to go there in order to trade with the locals..?

Spoiler (hover to show)

Egyptians, which Thor Heyerdal proved by sailing across the Atlantic in a boat made from ancient Egyptian drawings.
Further evidence is fund in mummified remains having (due to modern technology) tested positive for coca-plant and tobacco,
two plants that are very much exclusive to South America...

But how many "scholars" have spent time, decades even, and energy on pissing all over Thor Heyerdals claim..?

And we all know they are doing it not because they want to find out the truth, they just want to be the one who
gets to defraud the "whack job", the one who gets to be the champion of conventional wisdom teachings...

Ha, i love conspiracies. Keep em' comin' AJ.

well, I hate to ruin it for you buddy,    , BUT as part egyptian you shouldnt be on the side refuting it now would you    . Plus he's right.

And THAT is so destructive for us, as a species...

That is so true, history is filled with it,  , I think its part of "The New" thing, everyone fears it

I sometimes think of it, just how many centuries ahead in technology would we have been actually today if shitty things like that spoiler contained truth didnt happen to us, probably WARP Technology by now    , Probably
