Peter Cottontail is a Redneck!

Yep, you heard it - Peter Cottontail has been confirmed a redhead...or is that a redneck??

Which brings me to my new favorite show on TV: Destination Truth. Each episode features two investigations into the reports of cryptids around the globe — paranormal creatures that are said to exist only in myth and superstition. Every week a team of experts treks off into the wilds of some ridiculous country like Zambia or Nepal with a bunch of "scientific equipment" to search for yetis, chupacabras, or the Mongolian Death Worm, a creature, 4 feet (1.2 m) long, that reportedly secretes acid and shoots electricity. Now tell me...can you find ANYTHING better on TV than a hunt for the Mongolian Death Worm??? Now, before you completely discount the show, the Destination Truth team actually made international news a year ago with the discovery of a yeti footprint in the Himalayas.

The show features Josh Gates, the funniest host seen on TV since Will Ferrell's last guest host appearance on SNL. The Hollywood Reporter says "...don't watch this series...thinking you'll see the solution to a riddle of the universe. Watch it because Gates has a great sense of humor, never takes himself too seriously..."

And so, caught up with Destination Truth fever, I set out on a magnificent quest into our backyard, braving the elements, to prove that the cute little Peter Cottontail we all grew up admiring is really a wolf in rabbit's clothing - and sure enough.. Documented evidence that Peter is no cute little fuzzy cottontail, but a savage redneck! Check the visual evidence closely for the red hair on his neck and the battle-scarred ears.





Stay tuned for next week's episode where Chris wrestles down a Chupacabra with his bare hands...
