Steanso Finally Gains an Interest in Hunting;

Hey! Only a few more days 'til turkey day. Still trying to be thankful...

A good, lifelong friend of mine, Larry Lee Thweatt, has recently made me aware of a wildlife protection group that is desperately in need of our respect, admiration, and support. The Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy is an organization established "To investigate and conduct research regarding the existence of the unlisted primate species known as the sasquatch or bigfoot; to facilitate scientific, official and governmental recognition, conservation, and protection of the species and its habitat; and to help further factual education and understanding to the public regarding the species, with a focus mainly in, but not necessarily limited to, the states of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana." Believe it or not, "The Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit scientific-research organization, as recognized by the Internal Revenue Service, comprised of volunteer investigators, scientists and naturalists." The group is dedicated to carrying out investigations and field research relating to the existence of the sasquatch in Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Arkansas, as well as carrying out informational meetings on the subject. Investigational techniques include the study of tracks, the use of trap cameras, hair traps (designed to snag bits of hair for testing), and the collection of observation reports (apparently with some effort put into trying to corroborate the observations).
Man, I gotta believe that this is an organization that is more than worthy of our time, effort, and hard earned dollars, Adventurers! The web site for the conservancy is very professional looking (shockingly professional, actually), and it seems like these people are dedicating themselves to the sasquatch hunt with a high degree of earnestness, thoroughness, industriousness, and enthusiasm. I'm not sure that I ever could or ever would find a sasquatch, but I'm already sold on the idea of tromping around in the woods with my friends while looking for one! (not sure about the guidelines in terms of whiskey consumption while on a sasquatch hunt. Hoping there's some flexibility on that...)
Anyway, the whole thing seems like as good a reason as any for a shopping trip in the camping section at Academy, followed by an adventurous foray into the wilderness. Also, I'm fortunate enough to have a big, tall brother who we can dress up in a sasquatch suit. That way we can lure in sasquatches who are looking to mate (and Roundball already comes with his own musky, sasquatch-like smell which probably already contains sasquatch mating pheremones! Plus, in the wee hours of the morning, toward the end of one or two of his parties, I'm pretty sure I've seen him do some sort of sasquatch mating dance. So we got that going for us).
Imagine the glamour, adoration, and fame that we'll undoubtedly experiece when we emerge from the wilderness with a sasquatch in tow! (we're gonna need tasers if we're going to bring in a live sasquatch. Also, giving my friends tasers to shoot at each other will just liven things up). I'll have to get my hair cut before my photo shoots for Scientific American and Discover magazines....
So just think about it. You don't have to make a decision right now, but just mull it over. I think that the people who really put some thought into it will eventually feel the need to be a part of Steanso's Sasquatch Hunters...
Thanks for the link, Lee. You know me too well.

That's not much, but it's all I have time for today! Have a good one!
