      Yes this is the picture Billy Humphrey took. Kind of what I expected and so typical of phone pictures into the woods. Seems to me to be an honest man and believable, would again make a good guest for here.

    There are BF’s EVERYWHERE, Mr. Interviewer. /// I always wonder about these people that ask, why didn’t you shoot it? Why would you shoot it? First, when shooting an animal you must know what it is to shoot, and second, it was not trying to injure or kill him. And these things are so human like, how would you know from looking that it wasn’t a man in a ghillie suit?

    I laughed when Billy stated that he had a small graduating class of just 12 students . And I thought my 1980 graduating class total of just 26 people was small. My classmates and I used to joke that when we had our periodic school reunions we had to have three years worth of grad classes ( yrs. 78,79, and 80) to get a sufficient amount of people just to have a decent sized party. Billy’s got me beat … he probably needs five or more years worth of graduating classes to get a good party started . ????
