Bigfoot Not a Myth…Theres Proof!! Again.

August 15, 2008 By Robert Owen

So much for Tech, huh. Here's another story I just couldn't pass on. While at lunch today I saw a CNN news report flash by about... BIGFOOT! He's been out of the spot light for a while so I thought I'd see what it was about. Full article can be read at: www.cnn.com. Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer, a pair of Bigfoot-hunting hobbyists from north Georgia, say they found the creature's body in a wooded area and spotted several similar creatures that were still alive.

Invisibility… OH YEAH!!!

I'll have to say, it makes my lame attempts at humor in the Friday Funnies post a lot more entertaining. Hope you all enjoy. Also you can subscribe to my Odiogo enhanced rss feed by clicking Here … [Read more...]

New site in progress: HornSpit dot com

July 16, 2008 By Robert Owen

Got a new site officially in progress now. This is a site that came about from one long night in the Opera Pit. As another horn player and I were talking, about internet needs none the less, HornSpit.com was born. This site is planned to be a repository of all things irreverent about the French Horn (or properly known as: Horn). Funnies, how tos, How to-nots, etc. So if there are any would be Horn players out there that would like to contribute to, what I am sure will be history in the making, … [Read more...]
