Every once in a great while I see people talking seriously about Bigfoot’s existence and shake my head.

And big surprise (not) that we shouldn’t believe in the most recent phony Bigfoot sighting either, cooked up by a car salesman and now-fired police officer:

On August 12, [Steve Kulls] said, Dyer and Whitton "requested an undisclosed sum of money as an advance, expected from the marketing and promotion." Two days later, after signing a receipt and counting the money, Dyer and Whitton showed the Searching for Bigfoot team the freezer containing what they claimed was the carcass: "Something appearing large, hairy and frozen in ice," Kulls wrote on the Web site.

Credit Mr. Kulls sleuthing who runs the site SQUATCHDETECTIVE.COM (pictured above) for giving me the best laugh of the week. Just look at the Squatchdetctive homepage and try not to at least smile. I especially enjoyed the tagline: "Investigation of The Bigfoot Enigma"

Umm, what enigma? I’m not some super outdoors guy but I’ve got grandparents who have been all over the Pacific Northwest and when I was younger I tagged along. The Pacific Northwest is supposed to be Bigfoot territory, right. In my grandparents 80-odd years in these parts and my nearly 40 years, we’ve never encountered Bigfoot.

I’m willing to believe (but not in a freak-like way) in the existence of extraterrestrial beings but it’s a big hairy no, no, no on Bigfoot. I’ll take my chances with Loch Ness being more real than Bigfoot.

But back to the laugh of the week, SquatchDetective (SD). The flaming logo which doesn’t have a transparent GIF background looks like it was cooked up using some online generator. The SD badge with ‘Bigfoot XING" looks like just the type of road sign we’d encounter while out hunting wild mushrooms or elk.

Add to that the Squatchdetective MySpace page and SD radio show every Monday night at 9pm EST. I’m curious what type of callers a show like the Squatchdetective gets? I decided to record my Squatchdetective eyewitness report, please listen to my terrified Bigfoot Utterz and see if it makes the cut.

I need your help solving the enigma!
