This has been more fun than a goat roping. Some observations, opinions and comments. It is amazing what we pass every day without observing it because we are too busy, in a hurry or preoccupied with something that is important. We have for the most part lost that instinct to know what is around us at any given time because we are "civilized". Coyotes live in our back yards yet we see very little of them because we do not "see" or sense.
As to being wary of humans (so we don't see them), who can blame them. If you were a "bigfoot" and had the opportunity to observe humans would you want to interact with us? I wouldn't and don't any more than I have to. To be honest, after reading the last 8 pages of comments, I am further reinforced that minimal contact is a good thing.
Why is our first reaction to something we don't know and understand is to shoot it. Kinda reminds me of my old Daddy. If he didn't understand it, he'd whup it and if he still didn't understand it, he'd whup it until it made sense. Of course that could explain his 10 marriage track record, not to mention his lack of parenting skills. Heck, he may have been a bigfoot and we just thought he was different although he was about the size of one.
Which reminds me to address the tree raping. Why is everybody having such a hard time with that? Hey, it may work for him/them/you'll. Certainly cuts down on the need for conversation, and just think how many lawyers would starve with no marriage court, alimony, property settlements. Heck I could go on but I'm afraid if I think of anymore positives, I may be a convert. If I have to look at another Walmart hottie (sic) that oak tree will probably get to looking a lot better.
Now, can we all take a deep breath and say that we will only believe what we can see, hear, taste, pass through our lower intestines ? I think not. We believe in a lot of possibilities and act on them everyday, such as living with the one you married since you said "till death us do part" or that you'll never hear your child say "Dad, Mom, I'm gay". What I'm saying is that we get in a rut, do not use our minds, do not consider the possibilities ( can you imagine being able to go back to when your grandparents were born and tell that generation that we were going to put a man on the moon?) You would be in the rubber Ramada. Look at medicine,; organ transplants, stem cell research, tissue and organ regeneration, and who would have thought that it would happen in such a short time. And not so that anyone would get delusional and think that we are at the top of the intelligence chain, the more smarter we get, it seems like the more discoonnected we get from everythign around us including each other. Now how smart is that.
As to six or seven bigfoots taking up stones at the cabin, at least it looks to me like they stick together and act together for their common good. Now adays we will walk by someone who needs us, people will gather around and gawk but offer no help, will not unite against a common foe for the good of the community of all.
If you see one, don't shoot it. It's a living breathing creature and probably trying to get back to its own where it feels safe.
As to my own thoughts, I don't know but I won't say they don't, but if anyone sees one, post the last known sighting coordinates because the way the world is looking from what we've made it, I may try to find them and see if they will take me in. If that happens I promise to get back to you on the reason fro the fascination with the tree thingy (you know what I mean)
