Adolph Hitler's Skull

By Jack Brummet, History Ed.

This image is an X-ray of Adolph Hitler's head, presumably shot sometime after April 30th, 1945, when the allies located his body following his suicide. The dark areas around the mouth show his crowns and fillings. . .

Poem: Dream of goodness

By Jack Brummet



We edge toward goodness;
The time of mindless division
Draws to an end.

We shuffle toward the day
We throw the rifles down
And Moslem, Christian, Jew, atheist,

Infidel, Catholic and Baptist
Stand together,
Shuck the bonds of money, oil,

Lust, ambition, and madness,
And give each other bear hugs
As we watch the leaders

Who trundled off
Onto a boat that takes them away
To that cold island far across the sea.

Poem: Mission Statement

By Jack Brummet



The fire from above
Shines down upon us
And everyone standing

In the light has a mission
To carry
Their brothers and sisters.

It's up to us
To administer
The benevolent will of heaven.

The light shines
Without prejudice
Upon everything on earth,

On the evil and the righteous.
We're all just customers
Of the sun

With a mission
To leave a little good
In our wake.

A Bristol Boxkite airplane over Stonehenge, circa 1910.  This seems like it needs to be on the cover of a steampunk novel.

Don't mess with a Sasquatch/Bigfoot/Yeti/Abominable Snowman in Washington State

By Jack Brummet, Unexplained Phenomena Ed.
illustration  by Jack Brummet



In my home state, Washington, it is illegal to mess with a Sasquatch.  They're protected. As an interesting sidebar, the state only made sex with horses illegal after the notorious Enumclaw Horse Sex Incident (detailed in ATIT in eight posts, in excruciating detail). 




Undiscovered Species Protection Act

Whereas, there is evidence to indicate the possible existence of an undiscovered species a primate mammal variously described as Bigfoot, Sasquatch, an ape-like creature or a subspecies of Homo Sapiens.

Whereas, reported recent and past sightings, research by anthropologist, Primatologist, biologist, forensic experts, cryptozooligst, independent organizations, private individuals and the famous chimpanzee researcher Jane Goodall support this possibility.

Whereas, the absence of specific laws covering the slaying, taking, trapping or harassing of said specimens encourages laxity in the use of firearms and other deadly devices and poses a clear and present threat to the safety and well-being of persons living or traveling within the boundaries of the creatures habitat as well as to the creatures themselves.

Whereas, for the safety of all, the carrying or dispersing of firearms requires a sense of responsibility to all surrounding individuals and animals. It is the shooters full responsibility to correctly identify the species before the taking of aim and or the killing of a species, therefore ignorance will not absolve the shooter of said charges.

Whereas, be it resolved that any premeditated, willful and wanton slaying harassing or any malicious activities upon such creature shall be deemed a felony punishable by a fine not to exceed One hundred Thousand Dollars ($100.0000) and/or imprisonment, not to exceed ten (10) years.

Whereas, in the event of the slaying or capture of said creature any and all (moneys) proceeds and revenues shall be donated to a state college for future studies and or the protection of said creatures. The rights and physical possession to the said creature shall also be immediately donated to a state college, for further studies.

Poem: Escape

By Jack Brummet




1
Take the worst that could happen.
Add two zeros.

2
High fidelity clouds gather over
The tattered stage flats of a world on fire.

3
There is no one to clear our lift off.
We sort our way between the flak and shrapnel.

4
The ground rolls away behind us.
You and me.
