This is the third and final part of an extraordinary interview between me, the owner of this blog, and Jim, a person who claims to have witnessed the famous 1969 surfacing of the lake monster Ole Hippie.

OHH (Ole Hippie’s Hideout): So, you held out a sandwich, attempting to get the beast to come closer to shore? Are you crazy?
Jim: Yeah, I’m a bit crazy. I was just sure that the monster couldn’t hurt anyone. I mean, the dude was smoking a joint. How can anyone harm anyone else while smoking the weed?
OHH: Did he come closer?
Jim: He saw the sandwich, or so I thought, and dropped below the surface. I lost sight of him. I turned and saw that gorgeous, nude woman standing on a rock about 10 feet from me. She was in a daze. Anyway, a few seconds later, there was a huge commotion in the water right in front of us as the beast popped out of the water like a cork. Instead of going for my sandwich, he surfaced within feet of that hot girl and moved his head really close to hers. She was petrified, and so was I. We both just froze. The beast seemed to be looking into her eyes, now only a few feet away.
OHH: Wow… then what?
Jim: I hate to even say this because it just seems unreal … but why not? OK, the monster said, “Hey, sugar” in perfect English. She screamed bloody murder, and I fell over and conked my head. I must have gone unconscious for quite a while because the sun was setting by the time I came to. I looked around and saw no one around me. The beast was gone. The woman was gone. I must have dropped my sandwich in the lake. There was not one sign that anything had happened.
OHH: So did you report this to the authorities?
Jim: Are you crazy? I didn’t trust the cops, and they would have thrown me in the insane asylum. I kept it to myself, and the story only comes out after I’ve had a lot of drinks. It’s all true, though. I swear.
OHH: Well, thanks for sharing. It just renews my interest in finding Ole Hippie.
Jim: That was intense. You got any weed?
There you have it, folks. That’s by far the most convincing interview I’ve had yet. Is Ole Hippie real? Jim sure thinks so.
Absolutely delicious
