I did not find that out in my research, that they were good Oh, they weren't go? Not that i saw. That may be a little bit of an esoteric uh tangent there, I'm not sure. But if people know who the thunderbirds are, it's a british uh television show with uh what was it marionation they're marionettes that were there's a british british tv show called the thunderbirds that saved they saved the world did they really yeah marionettes that can save the world yeah it's from like late 60s are they related to captain scarlet do you remember captain scarlet yeah okay it's uh by the same folks and i'm blanking on their names now butThey did the Thunderbirds. They did Captain Scarlet. They did some other stuff. Team America World Police is a total spoof of all of those kind of things. Never heard of that. Oh, okay. That's from the South Park people. Oh, okay. But we're here tonight. We're not talking about the Thunderbirds from Britain. We're talking about the mythical cryptid Thunderbird. Can we say that? Although some people… we'll say it is neither mythical nor encrypted. It is real. Steeped in legend, a mystery to this day. Yeah. Well, yeah. For some folks, not so much a mystery. No, especially one person we'll hear about later on. Yeah. Well, we'll see if your story connects with the one that I know of. So we'll see. That's a good idea. Now, I don't know that you realize…It's funny how there's always, this is why people think we live in a simulation because of all these weird connectivity, the connections between things. I don't know that you realize that I am in the, in proximity to a Thunderbird. Right now? Well, yeah. I mean, within like a 35 mile radius. Sure. Huh. Is he your pet?

And even though the current, so if you drive down the river road along the Mississippi River outside of Alton, you will encounter, you can't miss it, it's huge. you will encounter the Piusaw bird, which is a painting on the side of a river bluff, rock. And the story is that the Piusaw bird lived on the bluffs of the Mississippi. And the indigenous people, the Native Americans who lived there on the bluff, painted, they didn't paint the one that you see, they painted a different one that got destroyed by white people at some point on a different bluff.down the way a little bit, but they painted the Piusaw bird on the bluff in honor of the bird that lived up on the bluff. And since that time, people have embraced it because of the, they call it the legend of the Piusaw bird, but I'd believe that the native folks believed there was a giant bird that lived on the bluff. Interesting. Now, what does… Piasaw, what is that, an area? Well, it's become like there's Piasaw Oil Company. I think it's like a county. Okay. But that's what the Native Americans call it. They call it the Piasaw Bird. Okay. And it just got adopted. You know, I have no idea what Piasaw means. I should look it up here. Maybe it means thunder. Thunder.Wouldn't that be great? We had some pythosaur and lightning here last weekend. Really? Oh, wow. Unusual for where I live. The pythosaur bird is very close to Pierre Marquette Park, which flows into the story. Pythosaur bird is a creature from native. I'm reading from Wikipedia here.
