Montauk Monster 2.0
Well another Montauk Monster washed ashore today in Southold!!
Article from Newsday:
'The beast smelled like a mix of low-tide and rotten garbage,' wrote Nicky Papers on the blog. 'I couldn't help but take numerous pictures of it and video clips.' Papers wrote he had been alerted by a couple who have since put the carcass on ice at an undisclosed Southold location.
The tale of the original Montauk Monster gripped the East End last summer as international attention seized upon the mysterious animal body that purportedly washed up on a local beach.
As the tale goes, three Montauk friends found the corpse last July on Ditch Plains Beach and snapped a picture of it.
Back then, rumors centered on stories about a dumped carcass from Plum Island's testing labs.
Some claimed there could be a shady back story: Perhaps the creature was planted to promote a movie?
Now, according to the montauk-monster.com blog, the latest Montauk Monster has been updated and has acquired new baggage suitable for 2009.
'I've thought about the possibilities that this carcass may be carrying H1N1 influenza (The Swine Flu),' Papers writes.
He did not respond immediately to an e-mail request for comment Wednesday morning.
What the hell is going on??
