Spooky Talking Tree & Scary Snaky Not-Animal in the Knot Hole 2012-04-11 - Fortune Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. I heard an animal in the fencerow today. It was making a dreadful noise. It sounded like it might be in pain, maybe trapped. I followed the sound to see the trees moving; it occurred to me that it was just the sound of limbs rubbing together. But when when I looked into a big knothole, it occurred to me that maybe it was maybe a sound made by the Not Animal in the Knot Hole looking back at me. That was my final conclusion. Some people can only be convinced by 8 x 10s with circles and arrows for documentation. When the pictures came up on the screen, it looked very clear to me, that the Not-Animal was a woodrified snake creature. Misrus Marcum saw no such thing. "It is," she said, "a big fish. I see it's big mouth coming toward us," This was not the right Rorschach interpretation. I asked a third party, and she said, "Yes, I see an animal," she said. "It's a wolf with it's ears laid back." Me, I saw a miniature Burmese Ball Python invader from the Everglades, the very reason I don't get south of Cookeville, Tennessee any more. If you are as sane and rational as I am, and see a woodrified miniature alligator-devouring Burmese Ball Python Not-Animal in the Knot Hole let me know. -ED Permalink | Comments?
