It's that time of year again. No... I'm not talking about Halloween. But this fits right in with the theme of Halloween. I'm talking about the Mothman Festival.

Every year for 14 years, the folks of the area gather to celebrate the most famous humanoid moth to ever not really walk the earth but still manage to get people to believe he exists.

I've never been to one, but I was considering it this year, just for laughs and to see what all the hubbub is about. I wonder if Richard Gere will be there? Yeah. Sure.

 If I lived closer to WV I would so be there as this looks like it will be a riot.

Point Pleasant is about 20 to 25 minutes from me (which, in rural hillbilly America, is the same as being 10 blocks away). So it would be very easy to go. But I know Point Pleasant, and I have no clue where these people park.

Two volunteer firemen who sighted it said it was a "large bird with red eyes". Mason County Sheriff George Johnson commented that he believed the sightings were due to an unusually large heron he termed a "shitepoke".

I forgot this was in West Virginia-

Amen to that meme pic.

Really though, WV is a beautiful state. It gets a bad rap, but living across the river from it all my life has given me an appreciation for it... even if I still tell WV jokes in poor taste.
