Dog with head out the window

It seems more dogs are taking up "car surfing." They must have been inspired by the recent Winter Olympic Games. This is now a new category.

An authentic Cuban cigar

I picked up a family at the airport that had arived from Cuba (Tampa has direct flights to Havana). The man gave me a gift of a real Cuban Covina cigar. This is the brand that Fidel Castro smoked. It is illegal to sell them in the United States but you can bring in a small amount for personal consumption. I will smoke this on a special occasion. The photo below confirms it is authentic. I got it off a Havana website.

Be cautious of flaggers

Always use caution when picking up flaggers

All taxi drivers need to be cautious of flaggers. When you see a stranger on the sidewalk, make sure you go by your gut before you let the person in your taxi. Who knows what may await you if you don't go by the "gut." Don't be tempted by a pretty lady. You may be surprised.

Just to be fair about the matter...its not raining!!

Travis Walton searches for Bigfoot in Central Florida

Travis Walton sort of looks like David Paulitis

Travis Walton went squatching with Kevin. Walton is the most famous UFO abduction case in history. There was even a movie "Fire in The Sky." You may mot know but Kevin is involved in alien and UFO research. They worked the west track of the Green Swamp.

Angela Marie Finger found?

Angela Marie Finger went missing in 2006 from Las Vegas. She was listed as "missing adult endangered" by the FBI. What was strange was I photographed her in Arizona at the shootout in 2007, with the man she ran off with. Authorities later believed he killed her when her truck was found. She seems to be home now with her mother.

This photo showed up on Facebook but I can't verify its authenticity.

EA-TV airs with Bigfoot episode

The remier episode of  Florida Bigfoot Investigators aired last night on Tampa Bay Great 38 and it was a hit. The TV station has ordered 13 more episodes which should keep Kevin and the gang very busy. Central Florida saw a quality Bigfoot show that was about research and investigation. It was about a team of researchers that go into the Green Swamp in the middle of the night using thermal imaging under mostly "lights out" conditions. I thought the show was great and I was honored to be  part of it.

When Kevin contacted me in 2011 about this project, I knew it would require long term dedication. We did the work, and now we can see the results. I am very proud of Kevin, George, Mike, Rob, and Terri. They have done an excellent job. Spike TV did not want us but if you want something done right, do it yourself.

Below are three videos outtakes of the show giving you a flavor of what was went down.

Jerry Smith Redskins TE was gay

Jerry Smith made football history in the 1970s when, as a player for the Washington Redskins, he caught more touchdowns than any other tight end in NFL history. But Smith is probably better known for being a closeted homosexual and succumbing to AIDS in 1986 at only 43 years old.

I am an amateur historian of the AFL/NFL circa 1961 - 1973 which was the pre-VCR era. This time period was the formation of the AFL and the Superbowl before tape recorder ability. Many of the networks have lost the tapes of championship games and much has vanished from history. One player was Jerry Smith.

In the Redskins Dolphins superbowl Smith was open in the endzone with seconds left but Billy Kilmers pass hit the crossbar resulting in a Miami victory. The following year the goal post were moved to the back of the endzone. Washington may have won if not for that

Tim Fasano and a large deer

After arming the Reconyx RC60 trail cam, I started to pack up. I checked the HD camera for I was going to explore around the area to see just how good it was. I was not disappointed at all. The results of the trail cam would confirm this is a wildlife intensive area. My belief is a predatory animal would also notice the pathway of deer, hogs and wait to ambush.

Checking the HD camera in front of the trail cam

In only one week I went back to check on the camera and the media card was loaded with images. This area right now will be a long term placement for the trail cam.

Stacy Brown jr and Tim Fasano interview in the jungle

Stacy Brown Jr (Spike TV) and Tim Fasano talk the expedition and the success they are having confirming a recent Skunk Ape video and sighting in Florida.

Deep in the Green Swamp

Kevin took this vídeo as I made my way to the trail cam that had been left on this tree for six months. The water wad full of snakes but we gad to reach this camera. We did not know it but the camera had actuall malfunctioned. It said 8,250 images but the trigger was stuck and we did not get much.
