A...My first reaction was another slapping facepalm.<br />Although i've actually heard (read) something like this before.<br /><br />Stan Deyo, of 'The Cosmic Conspiracy' fame, was my step-uncle in-law for a period. I can't remember if it was 'The Cosmic Conspiracy' or his sequel 'The Vindicator Scrolls', but whichever it was, a section dedicated to the possibility of historical cross-breads sounded similar. At first it was the Greek gods reputed to possess amazing physical power, like Heracles, being a cross between humans and aliens. Another bit was his supposition about the origin of Bigfoot and that hairy dude's various cousins across the globe. He described the similarity in relation to the seeming size of the cryptid reported, a huge and strangely powerful creature, and how this was likely the result of historical, or maybe even more recent breeding between humans and Gods ... and /or aliens.<br />It made me laugh, it made me cry, but since he was, at the time, my step-uncle in-law, I decided to finish the whole book. (It was really very, very religious, especially the sequel)<br />But hey, I had two books that were signed by the author and kept them. They were quite difficult to read a second time so I keep them separated for those nights when I am far too full of good single-malt scotch.<br /><br />All the best,<br />WoodyWoodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16756590870917752187noreply@blogger.com
