Grizzly Bear Kills Trainer

April 26, 2008

The 39-year-old trainer of a grizzly bear called Rocky was killed by the bear with a bite to the neck at a training site in California called Predators in Action. The 5-year-old bear was normally gentle, and had been trained to wrestle handlers on cue; he had appeared in several movies…the fate of the bear remains uncertain at present.

Eagle Ray Fatality

March 22, 2008

eagle-ray.jpg –A 55-year-old woman from Michigan was killed on Thursday off the Florida Keys when the moving boat she was on was struck by a 75-pound eagle ray. This was simply a bizarre accident; the woman died when she was knocked to the deck of the boat. A barb from the ray is not what killed the woman as had been the case with Steve Irwin.

The ray is thought to have leaped to avoid predators or dislodge parasites; this was normal behavior. The woman was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time…

The Lizard Man of South Carolina

March 3, 2008

lizard-man.jpg — There haven’t been many accounts of his activity since 1988, but South Carolina’s Lizard Man is now reportedly becoming more active. This is a seven-foot bipedal reptilian creature with scaly green skin, red eyes, and three elongated digits on all four limbs. He has been seen most often in swamp areas and back roads of South Carolina, and may have been seen as early as 1972 although the first “official” account is from 1988.

Lizard Man is strong, agile, and swift. In the 1988 account, a 17-year-old was changing a tire late at night near the Scrape Ore Swamp near Bishopville, S.C. and had just finished the task when a reptilian creature came running at considerable speed towards him. The kid managed to get back inside the car, but not before Lizard Man had grabbed the driver’s side mirror. The observer then took off in the car with Lizard Man in pursuit, the creature then jumping onto the roof of the car. The young man sped up and was able to shake the thing off, but damage was done to the side mirror and roof. Lizard Man was described as “strong and angry.” Other independent sightings were reported in 1988.

Recent reports of Lizard Man’s activities have included damage to cars and the slaughter of cats…

Watch the Skies!

satellite.jpg — In late February or early March, a spy satellite weighing about 10,000 pounds will come hurtling to earth.   They don’t know exactly where, but possibly in North America. 

This satellite was launched in 2006 by the good ole USA, and never really worked properly so it was declared a total loss.  There’s no control of the craft, but you just don’t want to be under it when it comes down.  Not to worry…the government that put it up is developing a contingency plan for dealing with it when it crashes down.  Somehow, I’m not comforted…the spy satellite was to protect us from our enemies…but who protects us from the spy satellite?

Just wanted you to keep your heads up in late February and early March, folks…

Texas UFO “Explained?”

January 25, 2008

Also on the History Channel Monday at 9:00 in my area is a show called Life After People, covering the resurgence of other life forms following the extinction of homo sapiens…promos look intriguing! 

Big Texas UFO Seen By Dozens

January 16, 2008

ufo.jpg — In Stephenville, Texas a big UFO has recently been seen this month by dozens of people, including a pilot, a county constable, and several businessmen…not nut jobs.  The sucker seen was described as about a mile  long and half a mile wide, perfectly silent, and seamless…aliens don’t make junk!  It was moving about 300 feet above a field.

I wish they’d come and take me…I’m ready to go!
