I said I would comment on Bobcat Goldthwait’s excellent (showing my bias already) film Willow Creek.

Horror movies are not my cup of tea generally and I think the last two I saw were Scream-The Original and I Know What You Did Last Summer over a decade ago.

So I went into this wide open to experiencing a little suspense. I got more than I bargained for.

I read yesterday that there is movie coming out that will no doubt be something many here would like to see. The title is An Honest Liar. The film takes a look at the life and secrets of James Randi the king of debunking. The reviewer of the film, whose article I read, interestingly called Randi a pseudo-skeptic which is something I have never seen anybody do.

For a few years I’ve been examining news reports about a purported cryptid in Lake Pepin, Minnesota. Lake Pepin is actually part of the Mississippi river. Saw this article yesterday and it gets my goat when a cryptid is classed as paranormal. They are not. They are biological, end of story.

The Daily Mail in my old country is claiming some bones found in Japan are those of the mythical water cryptid the Kappa. I’m not so sure. Judge for yourself people.

Got the go ahead today to let everyone have a look at the front and back covers of Discovering Cadborosaurus the new book by Paul LeBlond, Jason Walton and myself.

Jason did the cover artwork and it’s absolutely stunning. The Caddy in the illustration is a composite of various sightings. We are damn proud of this book and can’t wait until the autumn when it is released.

I want to let you in on a great documentary series done by my mate Wayne Hall. It’s called In Search of the Congo dinosaur.

Yes, there are creationist overtones which some may not agree with, but the essence of Mokele-mbembe research is captured in this series. This is a real passion of mine and I reckon that all the deprivations that me (my) mates and I have undergone has been worth it.

In December last year, MSNBC came up to Canada to interview me for a program on cryptids which was part of the Caught on Camera series.

We talked for about two hours and much of this was recorded on video.

Finally nearly six months later, the cryptid episode aired.

The extraordinary footage shows a hulking shape rising from the tall vegetation and lumbering off into a line of trees – but is it the legendary Sasquatch?

There is a trailer for today’s cryptid program on MSNBC in which I, or someone who resembles me is featured. The reason I jest is that since that program was shot in December, I have lost nearly 15 pounds on a fitness program. I don’t recognize the guy in the show. You can see it here…

Amazing how to some, the lives of a lot of us here is a mere caricature and the object of derision. I do know, however, we will have the last laugh. It’s just a matter of time. Sasquatch can’t stay blurry forever, one day it has to come into focus.

Tourism Harrison Hot Springs and the Sts:ailes nation are jointly presenting Sasquatch Days on June 7th and 8th. The activities are just too many for me to detail here, but you can look at the link to peruse all the attractions that are part of this festival. I do want to give a shout out to my really good friends and sasquatch bros Thomas Steenburg and Bill Miller who will have a booth and be making presentations. They are both really approachable and enjoy talking to anyone about the ‘Squatch. Pay them a vist and you won’t be disappointed.

The tradition of sasquatch was transmitted to us by the First Nations of British Columbia. In particular, the Chehalis or Sts’ailes nation who reside near Harrison Mills, were the providers of much of the early sighting reports that J. W. Burns prolifically documented for posterity. I am extremely pleased about the repatriation of a sasquatch mask created by the late Ambrose Point to the Chehalis people.
