That's not Nessie

Nessie's been spotted on Google Earth? I think not. Nessie moved about 30 years ago. That's Nancy!

Loch Ness has no monster. Nancy is an eel.

Worm of death

The Mongolian Death Worm

The Mongolian Death Worm doth exist. This I know to be true. The mystery of this cryptoid be thine only for your lack of belief. From whence it came be the only necessary mystery. Knoweth this, oh surface dweller: The Mongolian Death Worm means to spit acid in those eyes of thine.

Enjoy. Clickula.

Was the Sarlacc of the Great Pit of Carkoon in the Dune Sea of Tattooine inspired by this creature? Only George Lucas knows for sure. Was Jabba the Hutt from Mongolia?

Bobbie Blob is working out

Bobbie Blob has been captured (partially)!

A good friend of mine, Bobbie Blob has been training of the Alaskan coast. She's trying to get used to cold weather so that next time she eats all the popcorn in the movie theater, the locals can't freeze her. I'm sure it had something to do with all the collateral victims. There were people in that theater.

Anywho. They found her...

Clicky.

Sewer monster

Supposedly, this has been confirmed as "not a hoax," so enjoy guessing what the heck this is. There's some crazy sewer monster slithering around in the sewers of North Carolina. Reminds me of Hedorah the Smog Monster from Godzilla.

WARNING: The video in this link is nasty. It might be more than some can handle. A bit gooey, and gross.

giANT pov

Whoa. That's all. Whoa.

I love my bugs and insects. That's why I have to share this. Gigapan view of ant. I'm impressed.

Now we know what they'll look like when they take over the world :)

Can you guess what this is?

Ants take over the Earth

I for one welcome our new insect overlords :P

BBC Earth News reports a world-wide mega-colony of ants. Chatter indicates they plan to disrupt picnics around the world!

Vampire misinformation

Bill, Edward and Angel. The pretty faces of a campaign against anti-vambites.

As part of our misinformation campaign, we vampires have saturated the entertainment industry with various legends and lore regarding our existence. Have fun trying to figure out how we really turn you, and how we really devour you, and whether there really is any hope in destroying us. Have fun with that.

Attack of the Killer Repost

I'm not stealing this link.

I'm not plagiarizing this post.

Thank you, Gawker for a rational perspective on what amounts to being the newspaper industry's death throws. In a modern world, no one will likely read a single publication from cover to cover. It's more likely readers will find places that pull similar type stories in one place for a theme.

Fans of strange and freaky news and blogs, please continue to read My blog for my best finds across the interwebs. All others, prosecute me. I'm already undead.

Ugly is as ugly barks

Miss Ellie, the ugliest dog winner. How proud her owner must be.

I recently was alerted to this gem at Daily Mail. I'm pleased to see mediocrity is never rewarded. In order to receive any recognition in the world, one must be either the best or the worst at something. That includes being the worst at being cute… or is it simply the best at being ugly.

I bet those judges are a bunch of butter bodies with butter faces.

Poor Miss Ellie looks so proud, but I've seen uglier.

Clicky.

Thanks go to my friend, Betty Bones for finding this.

Darwin killed the werewolf

I really can't be too snarky with this post because it's so darned interesting. Though, I'm sure all my werewolf friends would be offended by the suggestion, and all my bigfoot and sasquatch friends would be just as offended; the idea that werewolves developed in folklore into our ape-men of today is just too fascinating to pass up.
