Indonesian Park Rangers Plagued by "Pygmies"

Park rangers in Indonesia claim to be hunting 20" pygmies that have appeared in area parks. They claim they may be related to sightings of orang-pendek or possibly living relatives of the "Hobbits" discovered several years ago by scientists. The skeletons of nine small people were eventually excavated and the race was dubbed homo florensiensis after the isle of Flores on which they were discovered. Scientists remain uncertain as to whether or not these "hobbits" are actually human ancestors or an entirely separate race of beings but there is apparently little argument against the assumption that they existed alongside humans.

The rangers say they are convinced such pygmy people exist and are running amok in the parks and that their next course of action is to capture them on film.

Heated Pet Beds

While we focus on creatures unknown and legendary (among other things), we have been known to discuss regular old pets quite a bit around these parts. I have two pets right now and have had as many as four at a time. I also worked as a vet tech when I was younger, so to say that I am an animal lover could be considered an understatement.

If you have dogs, then you really need to check out http://cozywinters.com/ and their many heated products. They have more than just pet products but their pet products are really great!

Michigan Dogman Spotted

According to a recent report, the Michigan Dogman has been spotted again. This legend has persisted for over 50 years, going back as far as at least 1938, when a Robert Fortney saw a dog-like creature that reared up on its hind legs. He shot at the creature which fled. He later told people he "wouldn't want to call it a Dogman" but he couldn't explain what he had seen.

Several more reports came from a teenager who claimed to have seen the Dogman not once but three different times between 1993 and 1994. The teenager, only known as "Ben," reported that he thought he had seen three different creatures, perhaps all part of a "pack" of Dogmen near his home and around the Lakeshore Drive area. On two of these alleged sightings, he was accompanied by others.

Another incident collected in the annals of Michigan Dogman lore is a car wreck that police attributed to a deer strike but at least one witness claimed there were dark gray hairs left on the car and the driver was unable to identify what he hit.
