Re: “Happyland”

Greetings from the visitors bureau. Hooked in Humboldt was forged during the Prop 19 media circus and remains a strategic counter-measure to national Humboldt pot stories. Otherwise, our main mantra is: redwoods, redwoods, redwoods. Has been for years. Who better to be our official Big Tree spokesperson? You guessed it. He's our YouTube star, single-handedly generating more than 200,000 views on our channel, which has topped 780,000 total views. YouTube.com/Redwoodcoaster

Re: “Bigfoot Daze”

Nice take on the hairy hominid of Humboldt. One other nice tidbit about tomorrow. There's a good chance that the human mother of Bigfoot's love child, as identified by the Weekly World News on more than one occasion, will be there. (No, I'm not making this up. How could I?)
