I considered that, too. But then using the quotes and leaving out the pertinent information made me think the quotes were another case of tokenism. Why mention it it all if you're not going to cover the facts about it? Leaving it as sort of a loose end as they did implies there is at least some mystery surrounding it when, in reality, there's not.  You're right and I can't answer that one. I don't see the point in bringing it up without offering more info unless he had a word count to meet. Jim |

That's entirely possible as well. Who knows? |

Looks like a sloth with alopecia to me. That's sad. They're my favorite animals. Poor bastard was probably sick and crawling towards people for help. "Aaggh! Let's club it to death!"  Dunno 'bout that one.  You know when tumors have teeth and eyes and wads of hair and stuff in them? This reminded me of those reports. Genetic bad news. Hopefully it's a freak and not the result of some environmental influence: Are you there, Godzilla? It's me, Matthew. |

Builder Snaps Ghost Boyhttp://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2865655/Builder-snaps-ghost-boy.htmlA BUILDER demolishing an old school discovered this eerie image of a young boy in a mobile phone picture taken of the site.
The snap of the part-demolished brick building seems to show a boy aged around eight with short hair and wearing old-fashioned clothing, standing looking into the camera. You can see the picture at the link above. Jim

I want to believe, but I've seen better fakery on photos that are more than a hundred years old!  |

Starting the 100th ep of Ghost Hunters which was a live telecast of an Alcatraz investigation. Does anyone watch this show anymore? The show was so sweet, in a weird way, when it first started because it was these guys with little gear doing it as a hobby. They hardly ever found anything and I enjoyed their earnestness. Then a few seasons in, they got nice gear and "found" something every episode. Then there was that live Halloween debacle with some clearly staged "events." I have given up on it, but still watch/listen, occasionally, while I'm working. Anybody else still tune in?

This was just awesome and I had to share it. It reminds me of some of the MIB accounts John Keel reported in books like The Mothman Prophecies. 'WHAT'S A PIZZA?'
Location/Date: New Town, Edinburgh, Scotland - 1990 - late evening
A man named Brian Wilson was working the late shift one night at a local pizza parlor when a pair of "rather small" adults, who had a somewhat "lopsided" look about them, approached the counter, raised their right hands, and announced; "Hi, we're Americans!"
"What would you like?" Brian asked them.
They countered, "What do you make?"
"Pizzas" replied Brian.
"What are pizzas?" inquired the supposed Americans.
The couple watched Brian intently as he prepared two cheese and tomato pizzas. All the while, the male "kept looking around the shop like he'd never been in a pizza parlor before". Then the female pointed to a bowl of green peppers and asked what they were.
By now, Brian's colleague Doug had also noticed that there was something rather odd about the pair, and the two chefs exchanged glances of disbelief as Brian carefully explained what a pepper was.
"Do they taste nice?" wondered the female.
As the pair waited in silence for their pizzas (complete with green peppers) to cook, other customers came in and out of the shop as usual. Once their order was ready, the extraordinary Americans settled their bill. Each took a single bite out of their pizza then threw the remainder into the bin outside the shop.
Brian entertained a suspicion that his visitors may have literally been from another planet "I had read stories on the subject of aliens masquerading as human beings," he told investigators. "These two individuals came across as acting as humans, but not doing a very good job of it!"

hollleeee shit!
i didn't know there was a theory that nikola tesla caused the tunguska incident? goddam that just blew me away. he's fucking bad-ass.
also...
i didn't know the US government could seize inventions/intellectual properties/patents it deems important for national security. its called the "invention secrecy act" (35 U.S.C. 17). now the scenes from iron-man 2 make some sort of sense...

anyhoo, sorry. i was just reading a book and those just came up.

its from a novel called "ghost dance" by john case. the short version is that its about a disgruntled inventor who develops an improved version of tesla's super weapon and uses it against targets in the US. i quite enjoyed it. That's one of my favorite theories. Why blame an exploding meteorite when you have a DEATH RAY? i know! the possibility that tesla could be the cause just blows me away. its like real life science fiction shit. when you combine that with the fact that the a) government impounded tesla's notebooks, b) stoes them in fucking los alamos, c) doesn't release the contents despite the freedom of information act... make you wonder just what ideas and inventions tesla came up with! -mike |
