Mike Rugg Discusses Ketchum's Bigfoot DNA Press Release
In this episode Bigfoot Museum curator Mike Rugg talks about the latest news from Dr. Melba Ketchum that the upcoming Bigfoot DNA study is to be released.
Questions of the day: Something's not right about Patty, why are the soles of her feet white?
Kittalia A. sent us the following questions about Patty, the Bigfoot in the Patterson-Gimlin film. They are all very good questions that we we wish we knew the answers to. We're no "Henry May" and it's times like this that we wish we had his number. Since we don't have Henry around whenever we need him, here are some easy questions for all you Patterson-Gimlin believers to try and answer:
Finally...first. I can retire too. Wanna go golfing Mayor?
ReplyDeleteLol. Sure buddy! I take it you live somewhere warm, I'm up to my ass in snow. Only indoor mini golf for me.
DeleteGuess we have to wait to summer..or play mini golf. Getting chilly in NYC, but no snow. Plenty of water though!
DeleteMcCheese in 2016! What would a McCheese administration look like, Mr. mayor--I mean, Mr. President?
Deleterush
ReplyDeleteI'm here now. All of this bullshit makes me want to sip a little anejo and listen to the entire Hemispheres album.
DeleteAre you just the same guy having a conversation with himself?
DeleteYes it is the same guy.
Deletefuck yeah! be sure to do Farewell to Kings THEN Hemispheres
DeleteYou are right, I have to listen to Cygnus X-1 Book I: The Voyage first to get the whole musical story. I will do that. As far as me being rumferlife, no that isn't so. We are just two like minded guys that like our Rum and Rush and I give him full credit for the name rushferlife because Rush is what brought us together!
DeleteA Farewell to Kings is also one rocking song and I love Pearts use of all the bells, chimes and other cool shit that is part of his percussion tool box, what a badass.
Deleteah xanadu is one of the best,of course the trees which my six year old son loves,much respect rushferlife
DeleteAhh--The Trees. "All are kept equal by hatchet, axe and saw!" What a great tune.
Deleteand yes,farewell to kings is kickass,surprised that never got radio play
DeleteI have to tell you guys, Rush blows.
Deleteyes,go listen to your abba,enjoy
Deletepeople love or hate Rush.
Deleteso when youre near me......darlin cant you hear me......S.O.S. great song! And the blonde is smokin hot!
DeleteYes she is

ReplyDeleteMost sensible opinion I've heard so far, regarding this release.
ReplyDeleteYep Ketchum needs to pull a miracle out of her ass if she expects this to be taken seriosly.
DeleteShut up troll.
Deleteseriously.
Deleteexactly!!
DeleteI'm confused am I the Troll?
DeleteHe/she's right. Ketchum and her looney "publicist" have made a monkey of us all.
DeleteCase in point, from the Houston Chronicle website:

Dammit...
DeleteYes you are, Herbie.
DeleteOkay just wonderin'
DeleteHerbie's right.
DeleteMike Rugg is a very intelligent person. I wish he would get rid of the garbage he allows to "help" there at the museum. He just railed on people who castigate others for their beliefs. That thing he has working there, that *women* is about as vile and nasty as they get. She just knows how to suck up to him.
DeletePoor guy. Hope he gets a clue one day when he finally finds out what a pyscho she is.
And the air inside the museum is dead too. "Keep Santa Cruz Weird"
DeleteHerbie's wrong.
DeleteMIKE RUGG FOR PRFESIDENT 2016!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteexactly!!!
DeleteOh yeah !, why can't we all just get along.
DeleteA McCheese/Rugg ticket would kick ass!
Deleteseventeenth :)
ReplyDeleteHe's a really nice guy (and kinda looks like Santa!) and makes some really interesting points about mystery apes (or whatever we're supposed to call them now) and hybrids but where the science community is concerned Ketchum's comments and views will stop them from taking it seriously. Yeah everybody is entitled to their own beliefs but people in mainstream science will not stand up and take notice if the person behind the study seems to be kinda detached from reality? Even if the science is good it will be dismissed, wait around to see what Sykes and Meldrum have to show us that will be worth waiting for.
ReplyDeleteYeah Mike is a cool cat.
DeleteDoes he smoke a corncob pipe? Cos that would just push him into the supercool group!
Deletea corncob hash pipe,double down on cool
DeleteGood comments, 9:48. Can't wait for Sykes, he will have more credibility. When do we get the final word from Sykes?
DeleteNo one knows when I guess we'll have to wait for a leak then a hasty press conference
DeleteYes, exactly. Forget Ketchum. She's a loon angling for a TV show or a book deal. The real scientists will be along shortly. Their findings will be taken seriously, whatever they are.
ReplyDeleteA TV show? Dumber shit I've rarely read here and that says a lot.
DeleteCouldn't have put it any better Mike. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteWe did not all spring Mitochondrial Eve, it's just that the other mtDNA lineages existing at the time were washed out by hers eventually. Probably because she had a boatload of hot daughters, LOL.
ReplyDeleteDon't step on the Rugg !
ReplyDeleteWhy is it that Mike Rugg always seems to consistently make the most since in this field. I say appoint him as president of the Bigfoot field. Of course that is my opinion has he is so apt to say.
ReplyDeleteChuck
he certainly makes a lot of sinse
DeleteThat was really good. He explains things nicely and clearly separates his opinions from established facts.
DeleteMike is definitely the most level-headed and likable guy in Bigfooting.
DeleteMike Rugg is bigfootings Morgan Freeman. And Santa Clause!
Delete"Live and let live."
DeleteWhat a great idea.
See? "It is not incumbent upon rational people to disprove the existence of Bigfoot. It is incumbent upon those making extraordinary claims to back them up with real evidence."
ReplyDeleteThis is what we have been saying to you Footers all along.
That's exactly right. With something like this the Carl Sagan rule always applies. But blanket claims as fact that Bigfoot DOES NOT exist are solely based on faith, not science, and certainly not on evidence of any kind. The only rational position on the existence of Bigfoot is agnostic skepticism. We still don't know for sure either way.
ReplyDeleteAnd the things that they fear are a weapon to be used against them
DeleteMike Rugg is the best in the field! Love you Mike, stay healthy! Love the updates
ReplyDeleteThat was a great interview! I agree with Mike completely. Thanks for posting this.
ReplyDeleteMike is always a voice of reason.
ReplyDeleteAnyone from Colorado here? Lets go visit the Ruggster.
