On this day in 1910 Scatman Crothers was born. It turned out to be quite fortunate that his mother decided to call her child Scatman as he found fame initially as a jazz mucician. He was most famous as an actor and voice actor though and had roles in “The Shining”, “Kolchak: The Night Stalker”, “Transformers” and “Bewitched”

JAPANESE LAKE MONSTER? - I give you this for what it's worth..
I would like to stress that I have not read this book, and have no more idea than any of you what is going to happen next...
A sharp jolt of fear, the like of which I hadn’t felt since I was standing on stage in front of the entire school about to give my introductory speech, speared me. There was definitely something there. And it was big. A big, shadowy shape, bigger than my boat. Panicked, I strained to identify it, but the ghostly form sunk deeper and within a few seconds, it had descended out of sight.
Adrenalin coursed through my system. As someone with a strong interest in the natural world, all my accumulated knowledge told me that there were no creatures of that size living in lakes high in the Japanese mountains. So what the hell was it then? I had definitely seen something. Something larger than any creature that had any right to be in this lake.
My brain scrambled for a reasonable explanation. It couldn’t find one. Then I remembered Keiko’s stories; the haunted lake. Was it some sort of water demon? After all, ‘Kuzuryu’ translates as ‘Nine-Headed Dragon’. No, of course it wasn’t a nine-headed dragon. Or even a one-headed dragon. But then what could it possibly be? A giant freshwater eel? A massively mutated sturgeon? A cousin of the Loch Ness Monster perhaps?

KARL SHUKER: Coincidence or commonplace?
To some, coincidences are nothing but random incidents impinging upon one another merely by chance, and therefore lacking any significance or meaning.

BIG CAT NEWS FROM AROUND THE WORLD
Whilst the focus of the CFZ Mystery Cat study group is predominantly the search for proof of the British big cats, it would be unrealistic to forget that this is only part of a global mystery cat phenomenon.

BIG CAT NEWS: Danny Nineham and a dead otter. These two things have nothing to do with each other..
The hunt for British Big Cats attracts far more newspaper column inches than any other cryptozoological subject. There are so many of them now that we feel that they should be archived in some way by us, so we should have a go at publishing a regular round-up of the stories as they come in.It takes a long time to do and is a fairly tedious task so I am not promising that they will be done each day, but I will do them as regularly as I can.
