I thought cray cray was a friendly way of telling a person they are crazy but that kind of crazy is good...

You know, like a person who believes in abonimable snow men. Now THAT'S cray cray! Why, Mr. Bigfoot was telling the Bigfoot kids that some humans think there's such a thing as Yetis in the Himalayas. One of the bigfoot kids said some humans are just plain cray cray for thinking such a thing. Course, that was my best translation of it. They did pick up on the idea of words, but they still seem to use random words. At least they are using the right amount of words and getting the grammar more right these days!

But I think only cray cray people believe there are Yetis, and the whole bigfoot family thinks so too.

Sure wish they'd send me some mail from wherever they are now. Somewhere down south. They left Baja a few weeks ago.

Suppose I should set up an email account for them?

It shouldn't hurt, Marshall.

Yet i don't know if they'd use it . . .

They seem kind of close, family-wise, don't you think?

Well, close is a relative term. I've noticed that with the Bigfoot family, Close can be 40 miles. That's how far they lope a little run in an hour or so.

Ya see, they don't do 9 to 5 jobs like humans. No real commuting, unless you count when they go to their favorite poison oak patch 63 miles away to pick an armload of yummy berries...or some other such thing...

Well heck, I can believe many myths at least partly. I think that many of them are actual accounts of creatures seen by our ancient ancestors. As those ancient peoples told of what they saw, the story became stretched or exaggerated over time, leading to our modern stories. Sometimes people exaggerated stories right off the bat to make them more thrilling, another possibility. These stories may also have been made up to teach kids valuable life lessons. Somebody may have also thought that some guy that fell in a swamp was an actual swamp monster, and proceeded to tell everybody what they (thought they) saw. There are actual different stories of bigfoot like creatures from around the world. My thoughts would be that it/they are an actual human relative that went extinct a long time ago.

I am especially interested in some of those Native American myths and legends. If you look they're are thousands of them, and probably plenty more that aren't on the internet or in books. Some tribes actually have different but very similar versions of the same myths and legends. Wonder how these came about?
