Alien Lore No. 25::::::The Physiology Of The Greys

According to the Wikipedia (the internet's free and sometimes reliable encyclopedia), "the Greys (also known as Zetas or Reticulians after the ΞΆ Reticuli star system) are the type of intelligent extraterrestrial life that appears most commonly in modern conspiracy theories, particularly UFO conspiracy theories and other UFO-related paranormal phenomena, especially the Abduction Phenomenon."

Greys also appear in science fiction, television shows like The X Files, and Dark Skies, and in the completely bizarre (even in this admittedly strange realm of lore) documents of the Raelian movement."

Greys have replaced "little green men from Mars" as the stereotypical extraterrestrial of popular culture. You wouldn't believe the body of literature that has sprung up around grey lore.



Some of what we think we know about grey physiology comes from Colonel Phillip Corso. His accounts sound verimilitudinous.

The "body of the Roswell alien"


Colonel Corso allegedly had access to the Roswell grey autopsies and discusses ways in which the makeup of the greys makes them suitable for space (and "time") travel. He even concluded that Greys in flight become an integral part of the ufo. Seated in their craft, (and isn't it funny that alien entities need seats, and have keisters not unlike ours?)! In their seats, Corso said, the grey becomes one with the circuitry of the UFO, which uses the alien brain to pilot the ship telepathically...which goes a long way toward explaining why (as always, allegedly), there are no control mechanisms in crashed UFOs, which has been said to have baffled scientists. Right. It all happens in the hive mind baby!



The skin is. . . grey! Some claim it is beige, tan or pinkish-grey. Greys have no blood as we know it, but there is a fluid which is greyish in color.

As far as distinguishing characteristics go, the greys appear to be extruded from a mold; they share identical racial and biological characteristics.

The grey head is large by human standards, and appears even larger due to the brain swell and the utter dearth of any peachfuzz or hair.

The nose is quite indistinct...a couple of small nostrils and little else.

The grey's mouth is a small slit without lips; it appears to be almost vestigial.

Greys have no teeth (in the mouth anyhow!). Lord knows about the uncharted nether regions...

The body and head are completely hairless.

The grey's torso is small, short, and thin. There are no pudgy greys. They are reported to wear clothing similar to what you see on Star Trek, shiny, almost metallic, and close fitting.

The greys arms are long and thin, and reach to the knees. For all their advanced features, they are knuckledraggers!

The hands of the greys contain 3 to 4 fingers, long webbed, and with either a sort of fingernail or claw.

Most reports say their legs are short and thin. Greys usually seem to wear a close fitting boot or shoe.

Ears do not appear to exist on greys. Nor are there any apertures for hearing. It's quite possible there is no need for hearing because their ability to telepath is so advanced.

The grey brain is larger than ours and may well have three lobes, instead of two. Many folks seem to believe the third lobe is dedicated to telepathic communication. Greys can not only read minds, but can also communicate with all greys in the area in via the "hive pulse," or, group telepathic communication.



The eyes are the most striking (and appalling) feature of the grey's makeup. Many different descriptions of the eyes have been reported. The black look of the eye may be a possible lens covering. . .kind of like built-in goggles and sunglasses. The eyes are generally slanted, large and black. I have heard them described as unfeeling insect eyes.


The innards. The grey digestive systems are reported to be failing, or atrophied. Nutrition is absorbed through the skin, or, maybe injected. It is often said the greys soak various chemical solutions, which may cause the reported strange checmical smell of greys.


Now, we come to the naughty bits as they might say in England. The male and female genitalia are the hardest to describe because the greys appear to never expose these parts to abductees and others. This is a little strange, isn't it? Since so many people report being probed and molested by the greys that one might think that is a primary focus of the greys.


For purposes of crossbreeding however--just as we have found out with "assisted pregnancies" and artificial insemination--genital contact is probably not necessary to create life. All you need is a way to get the pollinating materials from one place to another. And that can even include a test tube! We humans have in general found that our genitalia work pretty well for reproduction (and for fun). However, we only need to look at bees and pollen to know there are other efficacious methods. Fish eggs are fertilized externally. For all we know, alien genitalia could well be on their foreheads, tucked away in their armpits, or behind their knees.

The author of The Krill Papers states "There are over 1,000 humans in the United States alone who are the offspring of intergalactic or extragalactic beings and terrestrial humans. (The son of an acquaintance of [deleted in original] is one.)" Other documents, naturally, place the numbers in the millions.

Vicar Rolls Out A Bible You Can Read Cover To Cover In 100 Minutes


This is just depressing. The 100 minute Bible? Whatever your stand on religion, and specifically Christianity, The Bible does not deserve to be read in 100 minutes. I re-read the first four books of the old testament last month, and it took several nights.

Yeah, you can probably present the ideas in The Bible in that time -- but what will you miss in this "executive summary" of The Bible? In the book of Genesis alone, will you get to read about David and Goliath, Bathsheba, the Garden of Eden, Sodom and Gomorrah, The Burning Bush, The Tower of Babel, Noah's Ark, Jacob wrestling God, the story of Jacob's cousins, Jacob's Ladder, the call of Abraham, The Covenant, Pharoah's Dream, and the move to Egypt? And that's just in the very first book! What becomes of The Psalms? Can this new book render the subtle nuances that exist between the four gospels? 100 minutes will cut literally hundreds of stories, and reduce the rhythm and sweep and majesty of a great book to that of an instructional manual.

This Reader's Digestification of The Bible is a travesty from a purely literary standpoint, and surely from a religious standpoint as well. I realize the Vicar had noble motives to spread The Word. But a lot of really bad ideas begin with great intentions.

What is the rush in reading The Bible? Has it come to this? Click on the title of this post to read the article about this "invention" by a Vicar of the Church of England.

Alien Mythology No. 24::::::Phantoms In The Skies

---click image to enlarge---

This brief excerpt is from a longer article by Scott Corrales in FATE magazine, 2005.

"Although most accounts found in published works on the UFO phenomenon concentrate on classic encounters between commercial and military airliners and unidentified flying objects, these encounters are by no means a thing of the past. The 1990s were particularly rich with such encounters, many of which border on the incredible. Perhaps it is only fitting to begin our story with one of the most startling (and credibility-straining) of them.

"According to the March 13, 1992, issue of Mexico’s reputable El Universal newspaper, a sudden encounter with a UFO on March 6 of that year caused an airliner to become invisible.

"The staff-written article provides no flight number, but the Aeromexico airliner allegedly departed from Mexico City at 11:30 p.m. en route to Monterrey. The pilot dimmed the cabin lights and passengers began falling asleep for the short flight, until they suddenly found themselves staring into the night sky and the bright stars in the heavens above, as if the entire fuselage had been lifted away. “We were flying in space, seeing the skies and stars without the barrier of cabin walls, which were still there and detectable to the touch, but completely invisible,” said a witness to this sudden phenomenon. “We could even see the pilots in the cabin, at the controls of an aircraft that none of us could see, only touch.”

"More surprising is that panic did not spread throughout the aircraft. The startled passengers tried to make sense of the phenomenon until they suddenly became aware of a glowing object shaped like two inverted bowls stuck together flying alongside the aircraft.

"The newspaper account states that the broadcast media reported the disappearance of the Aeromexico airliner from radar screens in both Monterrey and Mexico City for ten minutes, along with the corresponding gap in communications. "

President Clinton Takes The Gloves Off

Even as he is closely involved with Ex-President Bush, raising money for Hurricane Katrina relief, the former president took off the gloves this weekend, ripping into The President for financing our war(s) with loans from China /deficit financing; for reacting slowly to Hurricane Katrina, and helping the wrong people; for ridiculous tax cuts "for people like me."

I don't think a former President has ever come out like this against a sitting President. It's prety interesting. . .it has to make things a little frosty when the Ex-Presidents club gets together for fund-raisers!

Ex-President Truman did rip into JFK during the 1960 election, but never criticized him after he assumed office (not publicly anyway).

I think we're starting to see some previews of Bill on the campaign trail for Senator Clinton in 2008.

Poem: The Prosthetic Head & The Absence Of Blood


The Prosthetic Head
& The Absence Of Blood

Everyone was out for blood
And there was none.

When Toto pulled back the curtain,
Every mother's son and daughter saw

The bolt-on head. The wax face
Slid off in my hands.

Alien Mythology No. 23::::::::Gravity Chained?:::::::::Control Gravity And Control The Universe

click image to enlarge



". . . It can't be stopped now. But it can be speeded up. Harnessing gravity could put us years ahead and save us enormous sums of money. With control of the universe at stake, a crash program is imperative. We produced the A-bomb, under the huge Manhattan Project, in an amazingly short time. The needs, the urgency today are even greater. The Air Force should end UFO secrecy, give the facts to scientists, the public, to Congress. Once the people realize the truth, they would back - even demand - a crash program. For this is one race we dare not lose. "

Frank Rich Hits A Home Run, Using POTUS'S Head As The Baseball

Frank Rich's editorial in this morning's NY Times was a winner. I am not always a fan of his because he can go so far over the top. But when he is on, he is on. Make sure to go read the entire editorial. The first couple of paragraphs follow:



I Care About the Black Folks
By FRANK RICH September 18, 2005

ONCE Toto parts the curtain, the Wizard of Oz can never be the wizard again. He is forever Professor Marvel, blowhard and snake-oil salesman. Hurricane Katrina, which is likely to endure in the American psyche as long as L. Frank Baum's mythic tornado, has similarly unmasked George W. Bush.

The worst storm in our history proved perfect for exposing this president because in one big blast it illuminated all his failings: the rampant cronyism, the empty sloganeering of "compassionate conservatism," the lack of concern for the "underprivileged" his mother condescended to at the Astrodome, the reckless lack of planning for all government operations except tax cuts, the use of spin and photo-ops to camouflage failure and to substitute for action.

Alien Lore No. 22::::::::The Run-up To Roswell And Area 51


--click image to enlarge--

On June 24, 1947, the first American UFO sighting occurred. And it occurred right here, in the northwest, not far from Seattle.

Kenneth Arnold was flying a search route in his single-engine plane on the way to Yakima, Washington. Since it as such a clear sky, Arnold put his plane in cruise control. He sat back and watched the beautiful scenery around him.

Suddenly--out of the corner of his eye--Arnold saw some bright flashes of light. He looked over and saw nine bright objects hovering about 9,500 feet above the ground. The objects were heading north to south at about 1,700 miles an hour.

The saucers were heading toward Mount Rainier, so at first Arnold thought they were search planes. As he kept watching, the objects starting going in between Mount Rainier and Mount Adams. This was a distance of 47 miles. Every few seconds the objects would change course, and as they turned, Arnold tried to see tails or wings; there were none. When he drew the objects later on, they looked sort of like boomerangs.

Kenneth Arnold landed and told some of his friends what had happened. Later he found himself surrounded by reporters. He told them that the motion of the strange objects was like that of skimming saucers. A reporter, named Bill Bequette, heard this and put the words "flying saucer" in his article about Arnold.

The next day there were headlines in papers all over the country about what Kenneth Arnold had seen. No one knew what the objects were, not even the United States government. The War Department was looking into what they were because they wanted ships that could travel as fast as these.

After Arnold's sighting, there were hundreds of reports of the strange flying disks every day. There was even one the same day. At the Cascade Mountains, a man named Fred Johnson reported 5 or 6 disks. They had a slight tail, were about thirty feet in diameter, and they reflected the sun when they turned. They weren't flying in any particular formation. As they flew by, Johnson's compass spun. This was the first report of any instrument being affected by the disks.

On June 25th, there were two major sightings. The first was made at Kansas City, Missouri. There were nine objects in loose formation. Another sighting was made by Lloyd Lowry in Pueblo, Colorado. There were two objects close together. It seemed as if one was chasing the other.

On the 26th, there were an incredible number of sightings from Utah, Arizona, Oklahoma, Texas, and New Mexico. There were sightings all over the south-west.

On the 27th, the reports started to change; they became more wide spread. Some came as far north as Canada and Michigan. The reports came from all over the world now.

It started to become a world-wide problem. No one knew what the objects were. Newspapers started to give explanations for what they thought the saucers were. Scientists thought that it was government research.

There are three main lines of speculation about just what had been seen. 1) The hexagon theory. The government was making hexagon shaped aircraft, and at high speeds, it gave the illusion of saucers. 2) They were remote-controlled rockets. 3) They were controlled by some hidden scientific group that was experimenting with different ways of travel.

Shortly thereafter, Roswell occurred and the era of UFOs, crop circles, abductions, cross-breeding, government conspiracies, and cattle mutilations had begun.

All This Is That Is All That Again

Yesterday, I could no longer publish images on this blog. Old images disappeared and instead displayed the dreaded "403 Forbidden" message. Obviously, no images
would require some sort of new approach.

I've always been amazed that blogger will take anything I throw at it...including multiple images a day and audio blogs.

Somehow, it has been fixed. I will probably hear from Blogger/blogspot sooner or later, telling me they fixed something, or that I am close to the wall on space. And I'll have to figure out what to do next.
