    CONSTRUCTION CREW FRIGHTENED BY APPARITION OF HEADLESS MONK

    Most construction sites don’t end up on top of a ancient burial ground, but this one did. While building a new water side addition to the Thorpe Park in Chertsey, Surrey, England, construction crews were haunted by a rather frightening apparition of a headless monk. When inspectors came to see what all the fuss was about, they realized the new water slide was possibly being built on an old burial ground. After some consideration and discussing whether or not a headless monk g

    UNITED STATES AIR FORCE BUILT A FLYING SAUCER IN 1950s

    A drawing from the government's declassified files showing "Project 1794" in action. Well, those who believe in UFOs understand that they are most likely coming from another planet but, recent declassified documents from the US Air Force show that the UFO’s the world has been seeing, may have come from us! You can see some of the earliest tests from the US Air Force of a real flying saucer below and, if they had made that much progress back then, imagine what’s possible today

    UFO SEEN OVER THE GREEK ISLAND OF CRETE

    UFO SEEN OVER THE GREEK ISLAND OF CRETE

    Does this photo show a weather balloon, parachute, or an authentic UFO from another world? While trying to catch a photo of the natural wildlife of the Greek Islands, tourists caught a little something extra on film that wasn’t seen until they looked back through the photos at home. Not ones to jump to conclusions, they tried to figure out just what on Earth it could be but, it seems it may not be from this planet at all. Ghost Theory writes: I’ve seen a lot of UFO pictures i

    APPARITION FILMED IN A 120 YEAR OLD BUILDING

    Has an investigative team caught a full-bodied appartition on film, or is it just a shadow? Ghost Theory writes: Strange. The Anomalist recently posted a link to an interesting YouTube video in which is said to show a “full bodied apparition”. “My paranormal team investigated a 120 year old building (now a deli) and while investigating in the raised ceiling area (now a walk-in attic) we caught one of the most amazing pieces of evidence we’ve ever seen. This evidence has been

    AIR FORCE COLONEL CRIES COVER-UP OVER UFOS

    A former Air Force Colonel claims the government is actively covering up UFO reports and incidents. Could the “Men In Black” be a real agency linked to the United States government? One Ex-Air Force Colonel certianly thinks so, and wouldn’t he be one to know? The Huffington Post writes: LAS VEGAS — Former Air Force Col. Charles Halt accused the federal government of a UFO cover-up that involves a secret agency to deal with what might be extraterrestrial visitations. “I’m firm

    FOUND: LOST PAGES FROM EGYPTS’ ANCIENT BOOK OF THE DEAD

    The mummy of Hunefer, shown supported by the god Anubis (or a priest wearing a jackal mask). Hunefer's wife mourns, and two priests perform rituals. An unexpected find by Egyptologist, John Taylor, has made a remarkable impact on the piecing together of the entire, original manuscript of the ancient Egyptian tome, the Book Of The Dead. Wikipedia says about the book: The Book of the Dead is made up of a number of individual texts and their accompanying illustrations. Most sub-

    MYSTERY MUSIC FLOATS THROUGH YELLOWSTONE

    Yellowstone Gate writes: Yellowstone Lake and the rugged backcountry that surrounds it is a place where millions go seeking solitude and silence. Yet it in a well-documented but rarely discussed phenomenon, some visitors to the Lake area have experienced remarkable celestial sounds of unknown and unexplained origin. “They resemble the ringing of telegraph wires or the humming of a swarm of bees, beginning softly in the distance, growing rapidly plainer until directly overhead

    Thanks giving

    However, as I prepare, I thought it was fun to see the Google search trends moving from the typical sports, politics, murder and other things that pass for news nowadays to people searching for green bean casserole and pecan pie recipes.  That gives me hope for the humans and starts me thinking about what makes this time a special and sacred one. There is a profound power in the giving of thanks.  It seems like such a trivial thing, but it is the completion of the cycle of wi

    More mojo in your little finger…

    Did you hear that?  They look at me and explain that their view of the world is that stuff like that doesn’t happen to them, and they are right!  Drives me crazy.  Of course, these are the same people that come back later asking me if I can send a little mojo their way to help them with this or that.  Usually it’s not something that really needs my help.  It’s something that they could do themselves, but they fear it somehow, and I sometimes lack the stamina to hand out tough
