Loren Coleman — one of the Heretic’s “Ten to Watch in 2010” — reports that one Bigfoot sex-obsessed lecturer complained to the Portland Daily Sun (in its April 1 edition) that his research was omitted from the legendary cryptozoologist’s forthcoming tome about the beast:
It seems that “Henry Yarncooler, a lecturer on Bigfoot legends, said he can’t understand why [Loren] Coleman and co-author Michelle Souliere, owner of the Green Hand bookstore where the [International] Cryptozoology Museum resides, want to censor details of Bigfoot’s breeding habits.”
It does not appear, from Coleman’s post, that the Portland Daily Sun contacted him, or cited his past presentations and writings on “cryptosexology,” particularly those pertaining to the mighty, hairy, one.

I appreciated the Portland Daily Sun used a recent announcement of a (real) forthcoming book (True Giants) of mine for their front page April Fool’s joke. I played along on my blog, for the day, and was surprised at how many people actually fell for the “sexology” aspect of it all.
Well, as they say, they spelled my name correctly, so I had nothing to complaint about, and I was honored.
Cheers,
Loren
Thanks, Loren! I love the Daily Sun piece. It was a riot.
