Thirteen Years Ago…and Big Grey Man

Posted by: Loren Coleman on September 25th, 2006

Climbing mountains has all kinds of hazards. On September 25, 1993, while free climbing, after carelessly slipping on some loose talus, I fell straight back 40 feet from a cliff onto some boulders on the ground. Simply put, I broke my back.

Bring On Kraken!

Posted by: Loren Coleman on September 23rd, 2006

Modern images of the Kraken come via Jules Verne’s book and from remembrances of the 1954 sci-fi movie named after his book, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. That’s about ready to change, in a small way, after the September 23nd broadcast of Kraken on the Sci-Fi Channel. Early reviews are what might be expected, as […]

Update: Yardley Yeti Sightings Rolling In

Posted by: Craig Woolheater on September 21st, 2006

Although the moniker of the Yardley Yeti seems to be an unfortunate choice of words, I can’t decide if this is better or worse than the usually affixed choice: Chupacabra.
