Belgium Doesn’t Exist!
Posted on 08.21.07 by John @ 8:34 pm

Ceci n'est pas une nation
This stunning fact was brought to my attention today:

For too long we have been told lies. The existence of the supposed European country of Belgium has been taken as gospel for years by members of the Liberati. It has long been held up as a shining example of Liberal philosophies in action. However, now is the time the truth be known. Belgium doesn’t exist…

I ,like you, were shocked to discover this. I can only hope that more people will see through the hoax and right the wrong that is the hoax of Belgium. BTW, don’t miss the shocking truth about the moon (it’s a fake no matter what your eyes tell you) and "Wisconsin: The Innocent State That Isn’t".

Oh No, Not Again. The Phoenix Lights Are Back
Posted on 02.07.07 by John @ 8:13 pm

Oh boy… I can hear the UFO people running around making up stuff about this already..

Phoenix residents again lit up police switchboards and news hotlines as bright stationary lights were again visible south of the skies of Phoenix, Arizona on Tuesday night. Many residents of Arizona are particularly diligent sky watchers as the most reported UFO event in history that is commonly known as the ‘Phoenix Lights’ is nearing a ten-year anniversary. On March 13, 1997 several events composed the event known as the ‘Phoenix lights’ with most seeing tapes and photographs of the orbs that were spotted southwest of the Valley of the Sun on news channels and TV specials.

Umm, it’s parachute flares from the military gunnery range south of Phoenix? Just like the ones 10 years ago. But you know, if your a believer of this stuff no amount of proof will sway you opinion. Catalog this under religious faith.

What’s On the Far Side of the Moon?
Posted on 02.02.07 by John @ 9:01 pm


Wow… And to think I thought there were just rocks craters and a few crashed lunar probes on the dark side of the moon.

It has long been a theory of some UFOlogists that the far side of the Moon could harbor a base for extraterrestrials. Presuming they come from a distant planet in some other solar system, they must have a base from which they can make their regular visits to the Earth. What better place than the far side of the Moon, which is perpetually hidden from sight?

Of course, i did a little looking around and found other people that think along the same lines.

MindGuard – Psychotronic Protection
Posted on 01.14.07 by John @ 9:57 pm


Well… this is, er… different…

Welcome to the MindGuard website, your source for the award-winning MindGuard family of anti-mind-control software for Amiga and Linux computers. Developed by Lyle Zapato during the psychotronically turbulent early 1990s, MindGuard offered Amiga-using paranoids the world over a new opportunity to think free of evil influences using advanced Active Anti-Psychotronic (AAP) software, theretofore only available to mind-control agents and paranoid millionaires. At the dawn of the Third Millennium, MindGuard was made available for even the stingiest paranoids with the introduction of MindGuard X for the free Linux OS. Now no one has an excuse not to be mind-control free!

This could be one of those rare times that I’m happy not running a Linux box at home, I’d be temped to try this. Then again, if it was good for the Amiga maybe I should have a look at it.
Anyway, I always thought the word ‘Psychotronic’ was used to describe real bad grade Z movies like ‘Plan Nine From Outer Space‘ (still the only film I’ve ever rented and couldn’t finish before I had to turn it in).

23, a Strange Number
Posted on 08.27.06 by John @ 12:54 pm

The number 23

 

Something what people believe just fascinates me. Take the number 23 for instance. I was looking through that odd source of information, Wikipedia, when I happened across an entry for the number 23. Ok, what could be so strange about 20 + 3? Plenty.

Could This Be The Holy Grail?
Posted on 08.27.06 by John @ 11:44 am

Could a giant whirlpool in Scottland be the origins of the much speculated about Holy Grail? Author Stuart McHardy beleives that the monster Corryvreckan whirlpool is not only the source of local legends but is the origin of the Grail. Ancient local myths think of the whirlpool as the great cauldron of creation:

"These ancient pagan tribes saw the whirlpool as a giant cauldron – or Grail – of rebirth," he says. "They believed it was the womb of all creation and could even awaken dead warriors. It was literally their Holy Grail."

In traditional mysticism the Holy Grail is believed to posses the ability to heal the sick and to raise the dead. Sound familiar? Humm, there might be something to this…

Building a DIY a Makeshift Film Scanner

DIY Film Scanner

 

Do you have a bunch of 35mm negatives (or slides for that matter) that you would love to get into your computer? No, don’t try to force them into your floppy drive, you need to get the tools out and make a trip down to the DIY store for some parts. This nifty project will turn a tube and some plastic into a holder that you can take macro photos of your film. You might say ‘hey, my flat bed scanner will scan negatives. Why should I do this?’ Well, you might not know this but your digital camera has a greater dynamic range than most scanners. That means you shadows and highlights will retain more information when you shoot them. Nothing sucks more than scanning a slide in and seeing blown out highlights and noise in the shadows.

The Museum of Unworkable Devices
Posted on 07.05.06 by John @ 2:24 pm

gyro thingFreaky science dosen’t get any better than this:

This museum is a celebration of fascinating devices that don’t work. It houses diverse examples of the perverse genius of inventors who refused to let their thinking be intimidated by the laws of nature, remaining optimistic in the face of repeated failures. Watch and be amazed as we bring to life eccentric and even intricate perpetual motion machines that have remained steadfastly unmoving since their inception. Marvel at the ingenuity of the human mind, as it reinvents the square wheel in all of its possible variations. Exercise your mind to puzzle out exactly why they don’t work as the inventors intended.

Reptoid Research Center!?!
Posted on 06.12.06 by John @ 6:49 pm

lizard-01

Ok, I’ll buy the underground cities but lizards? Oh come on…

Since the early 1990’s, John Rhodes has provided television and radio interviews, lectures, workshops, and media presentations to national and international audiences regarding his Terrestrial Reptoid Hypothesis. This hypothesis claims that the beings that humanity has been calling ‘E.T.’s’ or ‘Aliens’ are sightings of sentient Reptilian-Humanoid ‘Reptoid’ beings that are native to Earth.

The Terrestrial Reptoid Hypothesis further contends that the ancestors of the reptoids retreated into underground caverns during environmental cataclysms long ago, and that their descendant, now sentient, reptoid cultures are currently living in deep, remote cavern-cities undetected by mainstream humanity.

Hold the Garlic Please, I’m a Vampire

Garlic 

This is short and to the , er.. ‘point’. A man is protesting a new sandwich at a local burger establishment because it’s made with garlic. Why does he have something against this time honored pungent bulb? You see, it’s because he’s a vampire…

NASA to Launch New Lunar Probe
Posted on 04.17.06 by John @ 10:04 pm

Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite

NASA has announced that they will be launching a new space craft that will search for ice at the moons south pole. The hope is that water ice may be found to exist in the craters that never receive direct sunlight. If this is the case then the pathway to a fully manned moon base might be one step closer to being traveled upon. I hope that I can soon sit with my children in my arms and say, "Look at the moon, if you play your cards right you can live up there."

Nahuelito The Argentine Lake Monster
Posted on 04.17.06 by John @ 7:58 pm

Nahuelito 

Humm, a sharp guy with a camera got these ‘too good to be true’ photos of a lake monster called Nahuelito that is said to inhabit a lake in Argentina. To me it looks like a spray painted plastic flamingo and a few old inner tubes but that’s just my opinion. But it could be a real cryptid, one just as real as the rare harry toed sickle back frog of the Kalahari.

Do you think that the critters that keep getting into your garbage at night might not just be raccoons? Do you think that the thing in the sky that the news said was just a ‘weather balloon’ shouldn’t be easily dismissed? Ever have gaps of ‘missing time’ in your day? Do you think that things are not quite what they seem? If so then you should head over to Spottings.org and read up on the latest in the strange, the paranormal and the weird.

Print Your Own Rulers!
Posted on 02.03.06 by John @ 11:17 pm

Printable rulers 

 

This is exactly what I have been looking for. I have a Moleskine notepad that I keep with me at all times and I don’t know how often I’ve needed a ruler that is marked in millimeters. One of these rulers has already been added to the collection of goodies I keep within the covers of my intrepid notebook. I think I’ll print out the color square rulers too just in case I need to take any photos that need a scale next to it. Never know when I might see a bigfoot track out in the wild.
