Rev, Nos, and ali!
Pack the bourbon, call that elephant-renta-place.
I see a road trip in our future.

edit: After rethinking this, that place looks kind of icky.
We'll conduct the expedition in Hawaii instead.
Act cautionisously around that Dr. George McGavin guy.
I don't know where his finger has been.

New Guinea at 1200 km is actuallly closer to me than Sydney at 1450 km. Yet the habitat, culture and climate is so completely different to here that it may as well be on the other side of the planet. Good thing too considering what goes on up there. They can keep their fanged frogs too.

Wow! Thanks for that link BD and the warnings Learjet. I was all for going until I saw that spider. At first the catapillar took me by surprised by how odd it was but the spider did it for me. Ugh! I think our fearless leader would have something to say about that woolly rat and it's size so I'll leave that to him. Dr. McGavin's quote was really strange and had to be out of context but your comment summed it up. I just shook my head when I read both. The radio interview was fascinating but those pictures were just incredible. What an experience. Wish BBC America was broadcasting the show. Now, pass that bottle and on to Hawaii!

You are forgetting Rule #1 of Cryptozoology: "If it ain't big, it ain't squat." Frogs, even with fangs, are not the stuff of legend…
We shall be embarking upon a new journey fairly soon…but Hawaii is not in the travel budget. 
(All jokes aside, thanks for the link. Very cool… )

To help keep RCS monetariously stable grab a greyhound (the bus, not the dog ali).
Don't worry about the bourbon, they make it there.
ali, do I get to call Revenant on his cellphone while he's at work (whatever that may be) when I'm at RCS World HQ?

Absolutely BD but don't let it slip I told you it was okay. I could be in big trouble. I'm up for Kentucky! That gentleman seemed like a reasonable guy. He wasn't gushing and, if not a black trash bag, it's an interesting video on the second link. We could really travel light. If nothing turns up, we can always be extras in that new Disney movie they are filming in Louisville on Secretariat with Diane Lane and John Malkovich which is linked below the story. I'm sure you guys wouldn't mind being in Lane's company. I'll make the sacrifice for my fellow RCS members and visit with friends.

Don't know about the movie thingy, figure the third or fourth time Rev rips his shirt off in the background shots to exude his manliness on film they'll throw us all out.
Didn't Diane Lane say a couple of years ago that she was retiring from Hollywood?
Damn, worse than Brett Favre.

Well, Ms. Alicat and Mr. Blinddog, do you realize that Louisville is my home? So you will have a local guide should you decide to go Bigfoot hunting! The area where this was taken is in the southern portion of the city, not all that far from Waverly Hills Sanatorium. It is near one of the largest urban park areas you will find, and I would not be surprised at all to find bear.

Thanks Patrick. Will have a chat with the other members. Given our last trek searching for Stephen, a guide might be a very valuable thing to have. You just have to point one or two in the direction of the local watering hole.
BD – All I can say is he kept bugging me to mention his ruggedly handsome good looks. Little did I know ….
Diane Lane said she was retiring? I had never heard that. I do know one thing, from a woman's standpoint, she is one very attractive lady.
Revenant – He said it not me!
On the serious side Patrick, you do live in a beautiful area. I love horse country and the bluegrass of Kentucky. Had neighbors with 2 huge Irish Wolfhounds that moved down just before the terrible snow event this past winter. I'm guessing you might run into them at one point in the park because you can see them for quite a distance and they walk at such a slow pace, it looks like someone walking a pony or a small horse. They plod along but don't let that fool you. One almost pulled my arm off running to greet another neighbor while I was holding his leash. I'm still feeling the ramifications because it was so powerful and abrupt, I couldn't drop the leash fast enough and literally went sideways. Ouch!

Thanks Alicat. KY is beautiful, but gets a bad rap. The urban parks system in Louisville is a true gem, and was Frederick Olmstead's next project after Central Park in NYC. That being said, I don't think any of them are large enough to sustain a Bigfoot population! :)

Now, a Giant Frog with Fangs…that would be a different story!

I've been thinking of the possibility of corrupt behavior by the RCS Team while engaged in our worldwide expeditions.
Therefore, I think that a spiritual advisor should be added to the Team.
