Rural Michigan Man Fears DOGMAN May Be Stalking Him
A Michigan man describes possible recent encounters with a Dogman on his farm. He has heard growls and seen movement. He is fearful of what may be lurking in the darkness.
Recently forwarded to me:
“I am writing to you from the state of Michigan. I will be 67 years old in March 2023 and have hunted in my early days and fished all my life. I spent countless all-nighters on a sandbar catching catfish before the sun came up, in my 20s-40s in a tree stand with my bow, then migrated to my .44 magnum hand cannon for whitetails. I was never happy hunting until I reached the deepest darkest dungeons of the forest or timber I was in.
When I moved to Michigan from Iowa after my wife passed it was like a treasure trove of outdoor activity. I met and remarried my now wife in 2004. We live on the east side of Lake Michigan toward the tip of the thumb. Lately, I fish very little and stopped hunting because of the intense pressure and my age. Just not fun anymore. But I continue to competitive shoot.
After moving to Michigan I started hearing stories about the Michigan Dogman. I just blew it off. About 5 years ago there was a sighting by a man named Joe Barger, a semi-truck driver that was hauling a load in the UP. He stated that this creature tried to crawl into his moving truck. He stated that he shot this creature in the head and watched it fall to the ground as the truck sped away. About 3-4 months ago I read a local story about a Dogman sighting just north of us in a small town named Port Hope. We live on a 4.5 acreage with a very high banked creek that flows behind the old farmhouse. We have chickens, goats, pigs, 2 cows, and barn cats and dogs.
I believe it was early October 2022. I was out in the back by the creek when I heard what I thought was a faint growl. I didn’t think much of it until I got back inside and I asked which one of our dogs is outside. My youngest replied they are all in the house, and no dogs were out. My wife looked at me and asked, ‘Why? What is wrong?’ She asked if I was ok. She said the color simply drained right out of my face. She was concerned because she knows that there is very little that scares me. I told her I was out back and I thought that I heard one of the dogs growling. She said they have been inside before you went outside. I grabbed my .44 and a flashlight and went out back. I didn’t hear or see anything.
I cautiously went out back again the next night to just look around, and I heard the growl again. But this time it was a lot louder and it sounded like it was right behind me, like just feet away. I quickly turned around pointing my .44 in that direction. I saw nothing, but the lower branches of the pine trees moving. There was NO WIND. I quickly moved back into the house. My wife looked at me again and simply said, “What?’ My wife is from Michigan. I never met my father-in-law because he died of cancer in the early 80s. I told her what I experienced the last 2 nights and the color drained from her face. She stated, ‘You can’t be serious.’ I told her, ‘Does it look like I’m joking?’ She walked over and sat in her chair and began telling me a story told to her by her dad about a deer camp many years ago.
She said her dad told her of a time at deer camp when they saw a man with a face like a dog. She said that her dad never went hunting after that again. Anyway, when I go outside at night to feed the critters I carry my .44. We live on a flat farmland area of the thumb. The biggest thing that scares me is the creek. You can spit and hit the creek it’s that close. The scary part about the creek is it has high banks on both sides. Even a very tall creature could walk down the center of the creek for miles, unseen, in any direction because the sides are so high. You would never even see it. I wasn’t sure if I needed to tell anyone this because I didn’t actually see anything other than moving branches and heard that horrible growl. But what I experienced wasn’t normal, but it was real.” MJ

“Bowie’s radical innovations continue to inspire.
“The V&A is thrilled to become custodians of his incredible archive and open it up for the public.”

My dad wasn’t happy with my crop top & mini skirt date outfit, it drove him to the whiskey, he wanted me to ‘cover up’
A DAUGHTER has revealed her father’s dramatic reaction to her date night outfit.
She revealed that her dad was absolutely not happy with her look for showing too much skin.
![Tiana Musarra's father was not happy with her date night look](https://www.the-sun.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2023/02/94f209d0-9dc2-47c2-974d-46d33ed0a397.jpg?strip=all&w=760)
The ensemble irked him so much, he even brought out the whiskey.
YouTuber and TikToker Tiana Musarra (@therealtianamusarra) shared her look on social media, which her father asked her to cover up.
She rocked a black corset-style crop top and paired it with a beige mini skirt.
“Going on a date guys,” Musarra prefaced. “And he’s not happy about it.”
The beauty turned the camera to her father who looked somber with a glass of alcohol.
Her father gave a simple request: “Could you put a shawl on?”
“He always wants me to wear a shawl,” Musarra laughed. “First of all, shawls are not a thing anymore.”
“Can you cover up something?” her father persisted, suggesting her outfit was inappropriate.
“No,” Musarra replied.
Musarra’s mother could be heard in the background saying: “Yeah like I covered up our first date right?”
The now viral video struck a chord with viewers who shared their two cents on Musarra’s personal style in the comment section.
“It’s your mom having your back for me,” one wrote.
“Right,” Musarra replied.
“Such a cute outfit though” another added.
“Bring shawls back 2023,” a third commented.

Miyamoto would you like you to stop calling him the Spielberg of video games
![](https://asset.vg247.com/shigeru-miyamoto-nintendo-world.jpg/BROK/resize/1920x1920%3E/format/jpg/quality/80/shigeru-miyamoto-nintendo-world.jpg)
If you’re someone who’s compared iconic game designer Shigeru Miyamoto to equally iconic film director Steven Spielberg, stop it, he doesn’t like it.
For some reason, everybody likes to compare every single aspect of video games to film, even if it doesn’t make any sense. A classic one for Miyamoto in particular is the comparison to Spielberg, which goes all the way back to 1996. But in a recent interview with GameSpot, it turns out that the eclectic father of Mario (and possible mother of Bowser Jr.) doesn’t want people to make that comparison (thanks, GamesRadar).
“As you said, I’ve also been called the Spielberg of the game world,” Miyamoto said to GameSpot, continuing on to say, “but I actually don’t like that. I’m Miyamoto. Miyamoto is Miyamoto and Nintendo is Nintendo. However, I do feel very honoured to be compared with Disney. But with that said, rather than comparing Nintendo to Disney, I feel that Disney to some extent, especially for families, [represents] a sense of reassurance for families.”
