Alien Lore 54 - The Story Of Paul Bennewitz, The Pulsing Rays, The Grey-Government Deal, Underground Alien Bases, And UFO Technology

An Albuquerque businessman named Paul Bennewitz began to notice monitor strange electro-magnetic pulses from what he thought were UFOs flying above the a nearby nuclear weapons site near the Kirtland Air Force Base. He came to believe the pulses controlled abductees/throwbacks that had been implanted.

He tried to decode the pulses and contacted various people and groups about his theories. He eventually reached a Richard Doty and sent in tapes he had filmed of UFOs over the Nuclear Storage Facility. There were signals there, Bennewitz was right about that, according to several sources, there is no reason to think they had anything to do with UFOs.

Sergeant Richard Doty of the Office of Special Investigations met with Bennewitz several times over a period of months, looked at his evidence, and listened to his beliefs. And then, the Air Force began applying psychological-warfare techniques "which one observer and one participant claimed were intended to trigger an emotional collapse. " Bennewitz was already on shaky ground--he was paranoid, and believed fantastic stories about the UFOs, government, The Greys, and their intentions. Operatives from the Air Force OSI passed on disinformation along the lines of the tales you've read here before--pacts between the U.S. and The Greys; stories about alien bases in various places around the world; millions of aliens living underground in Dulce, New Mexico; and of course, stories of experiments creating human-Grey hybrids. Bennewitz believed all of it.

Doty had William Moore pass on more believable disinformation. Bennewitz became more and more frantic and more and more paranoid. He eventually lost his grip to the extent that he was checked into a laughing academy. Dr. Bennewitz told John Lear what he had heard and Lear took this into account when he wrote his Dark Side Hypothesis.

Bennewitz was convinced the aliens had underground bases near Albuquerque, and others near Dulce, New Mexico. As Doty knew, Bennewitz had accidentally tapped into a supposedly secure communications system at Kirtland. The coded messages he was receiving were genuine, but he was grossly misinterpreting them. It was just military and defense traffic. And, whatever it was, it was highly classified. Doty's job was to misdirect Bennewitz into believing the messages were actually from aliens! Doty has admitted this. William Moore and Doty are also believed to have colluded to manufacture the original group of MJ-12 documents which Moore claimed to have received mysteriously in 1987. These docuemtns have become a fulcrum of UFO belief. The Majestic documents have caused a gigantic rift in the UFO community of accusations, fraud, countercharges, the Majestic story has led to increased factionalism in that already wack and divided world.

One other thing drove Dr. Bennewitz batty: he would see "energy balls" within his home, supposedly sent by the aliens. Doty thought this was all in Bennewitz's fevered imagination, but soon learned that the NSA (National Security Agency) was working independently to bedevil Bennewitz. They were working on several fronts to destroy his sanity.

Christa Tilton, an alleged abductee (who says she has an alien hybrid daughter), wrote a book about the Bennewitz case, The Bennewitz Papers. It contains many pages from an unpublished manuscript in which Dr. Paul Bennewitz details his UFO belief system.

Sgt. Doty does not believe in UFO abductions or in Paul Bennewitz's flying saucer theories; but he does believe strongly that the U.S. government has captured hardware from outer space. He tells us that he has visited the mysterious top-secret "Area 51" in Nevada, where he did not actually see alien technology, but he was told it was there. His clearance was not high enough to be shown the actual hardware, he says. Was the disinformation specialist himself being scammed by another government agency? Who knows? Doty is now a state trooper.

Alien Lore 53 - The Moon Dust File

James Klotz obtained the following document a couple years ago, under the Freedom Of Information Act. The document was declassified. Clearly, they weren't just thinking about moon dust!

CONFIDENTIAL 1452738


DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE
HEADQUARTERS UNITED STATES AIR FORCE
WASHINGTON 25, D. C.


AFCIN-1A 25 Apri1 1961

INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION GUIDANCE LETTER NO. 4

SUBJECT: (U) MOON DUST Reporting

TO: All Air Force Collection Activities

1. PURPOSE - This letter provides instructions and guidance for reporting information in response to MOON DUST Alerts.

2. APPLICABILITY - This letter is applicable world-wide for initiative reporting.


3. REFERENCE - Priority Air Intelligence Requirement (PAIR-1F).


4. BACKGROUND - Based on estimates of the time and place of foreign earth satellite vehicle (ESV) atmospheric re-entries, Headquarters USAF (AFCIN) initiates MOON DUST Alerts. They are issued as far in advance as practicable (normally 10 days) and are automatically cancelled three (3) days after the re-entry prediction date stated in the alert message. It is necessary that the alerts be issued on a world-wide basis until such time as techniques are developed that will make possible the prediction of the precise time and place of impact.


5. INSTRUCTIONS AND GUIDANCE - During the periods when MOON DUST Alert is in effect, it is important that interested personnel receive, as rapidly as possible, accurate sighting data on the final (estimated) orbits from as many different sources as possible. The following guidance may assist in reporting observations of space vehicle re-entry. The re-entry of a space vehicle can be seen over great distances, and even the qualified observer cannot estimate the distance from point of observation to the sighted object with any great degree of certainty. At these distances, the re-entry would appear to resemble a meteor travelling in a near horizontal or descending path and, as the distance decreased, would appear as a brilliant object or cluster of objects visible during daylight conditions. In addition, an audible rumbling sound like thunder, arid possibly sharp explosion-like sounds might be correlated with the sighting.


a. What to Report. (1) Position of observer. (2) Time of sighting in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) to nearest minute. (3) Duration of sighting. (4) Azimuth and elevation of object when first sighted. (5) Azimuth and elevation of object when last sighted (6) Apparent size of object as compared to the size of a coin or other familiar item held at arm's length. (7) Color and description of object and changes, if any, during sighting. (8) Unusual or other than normal sounds heard during the sighting. (9) Weather conditions prevailing at time of sighting. (10) Any other data associated with the sighting.


b. Other Action to be Taken. In the event a decayed space object is suspected as having descended, the following actions are required:


(1) Verify location of reported object. (2) Ascertain identity as accurately as possible. (3) Make every effort to obtain object for U.S. if it appears to be a portion of Soviet space vehicle or other material deemed to be of air technical intelligence interest. (4) Arrange expeditious delivery of recovered object to Aerospace Technical Intelligence Center (AFCIN-4A), Wright-Patterson A.F.B., Ohio. (5) Obtain permission for U.S. examination of object in the event it cannot be recovered for U.S. retention.

c. Where to Send Reports - Reports in response to paragraph 5a. or b. above should cite the unclassified nickname MOON DUST and be addressed to the following: (1) Headquarters USAF (AFCIN) Washington 25, D.C. (for action) (2) ATIC (AFCIN-4A) Wright-Patterson A.F.B., Ohio (info) (3) Space Track R & D Activity Hanscom Field, Massachusetts (info) (4) NORAD Ent A.F.B., Colorado (info)


6. CLASSIFICATION ASPECTS


Because of the intelligence connotations of MOON DUST regarding retrieval and examination by ATIC of a descended Soviet space vehicle, the overall project is classified Confidential, and MOON DUST Alerts are normally on a Confidential basis because of the intelligence association with decay estimates. The basic decay estimates (identification of the- object and estimated date and hour of decay) are in themselves normally unclassified. Thus, decay estimates, as such, can be released to observers or observatories cooperating with U.S. collectors purely on the basis of international cooperation in the scientific aspects of space knowledge. Reports of sightings transmitted by U.S. personnel should be classified according to source or content in accordance with normal reporting and transmitting procedures, and in the case of reports on visual sightings, will normally be unclassified.

Mitt Romney Will Make A Run For The White House

Gov. Mitt Romney is announcing at 6 p.m. that he will not seek re-election to a second term.

I heard him speak only a couple of days ago, saying that if he ran for Governor again he would not make a run for the White House.

This sets the stage for his jump into the 2008 Republican presidential nomination. Big fun!

What Is Pi Good For? The Answer Is Sitting On Your Shoulders

I've waited over fifty years to find out the answer to the question "What is Pi [1] good for?" I found out today when I was trying to figure out my hat size (somewhere between 7 3/4 and 7 7/8). Huge.

One of the common methods of calculating hat size (aside from looking at a chart) is to divide the circumference of your head by Pi!

1. Measure the circumference of your head across the forehead, an inch above your eyebrows and just below the curve of the skull in back.
2. Divide the result by Pi (3.14159).
3. Convert that number to the nearest eighth. This is your hat size.

[1] A transcendental number (approximately 3.14159), Pi is the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of a circle and is a constant in many mathematical expressions.

The Big Rock Candy Mountains Lyrics

My friend and reader, Pete Backes, sent along the lyrics to this great song by Harry McClintock. Harry was a Wobbly songwriter and wrote at least one other memorable one: Hallelujah I'm A Bum! You may know this tune from the great Cohen Brothers movie, O Brother Where Art Thou? Pete sent the song because he remembered my fascination with hobos. It evokes a vanishing world I had a few glimpses of, growing up as I did, a couple of blocks from the Burlington North railroad to the west, and the Northern Pacific to the east.

Big Rock Candy Mountain

One evening as the sun went down and the jungle fire was burning
Down the track came a hobo hiking and he said boys I'm not turning
I'm headin for a land that's far away beside the crystal fountains
So come with me we'll go and see the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains there's a land that's fair and bright
Where the handouts grow on bushes and you sleep out every night
Where the boxcars are all empty and the sun shines every day
On the birds and the bees and the cigarette trees
Where the lemonade springs where the bluebird sings
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains all the cops have wooden legs
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth and the hens lay soft boiled eggs
The farmer's trees are full of fruit and the barns are full of hay
Oh, I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow
Where the rain don't fall and the wind don't blow
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains you never change your socks
And the little streams of alcohol come a-trickling down the rocks
The brakemen have to tip their hats and the railroad bulls are blind
There's a lake of stew and of whiskey too
You can paddle all around 'em in a big canoe
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains the jails are made of tin
And you can walk right out again as soon as you are in
There ain't no short handled shovels, no axes saws or picks
I'm a goin to stay where you sleep all day
Where they hung the jerk that invented work
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

I'll see you all this coming fall in the Big Rock Candy Mountains

Sopranos' Matt Bevalaqua a/k/a Lilo Brancato Charged In Bronx Cop Killing

Lilo Brancato, Jr., was charged with killing NYPD officer Daniel Enchautegu in The Bronx over the weekend. Brancato appeared in numerous films, including starring (as an unknown) in the DeNiro-directed A Bronx Tale in 1993. He also played the role of Matt Bevalaqua in The Sopranos.

He and his partner (who seems to have been the actual shooter) were seriously injured by the officer they gunned down "when they capped a night of drunken partying at a Bronx strip club by breaking into the apartment of a dead man in a sick search for drugs, officials revealed yesterday. "

You may remember him as Matt Bevalaqua in The Sopranos. He played one of the flat out dumbest characters on The Sopranos (and to be the dumbest on that show requires some doing). His character attempts to assassinate Capo Christopher Moltisanti. He didn't feel they were moving up the ladder as quickly as they could. His partner was killed by Christopher during their assassination attempt calculated to win Richie's Aprile's favor. Pussy and Tony kill Bevalaqua in Episode #22 - From Where to Eternity. It's not easy to be a despicable character on The Sopranos, but Brancato pulled it off. Now we learn it was just method acting.

Alien Lore 51 - The Most Popular UFO Landing Spot: Bonnybridge, Scotland

Some people speculate that either the residents of Bonnybridge or the aliens themselves greatly enjoy Scotland's most famous product: whisky. Whichever is the case, around 300 UFO sightings are registered each year. There was one UFO sighting per 17,000 inhabitants in Scotland compared to one per 61,200 in Canada, and one per 136,450 in the United States.

There are a great variety of spaceships spotted in the region. People have described observing various kinds of objects from flying discs to cigar-shaped craft in the skies.

Firemen, police officers, military personnel, civil pilots and a police helicopter pilot are among those who have reported sightings. According to Nick Pope, UFO expert, who ran the Ministry of Defence’s UFO desk from 1991 to 1994; "It is difficult to arrive at a precise number of sightings in any one place as there is no central data collection point..."

"We must also take into account widespread under-reporting due to fear of ridicule and the fact most people are unsure where to submit reports." "However, it is certainly possible to gauge the intensity of current UFO activity." "Our listed hotspots exhibit up to 20 times as many sightings as anywhere else."

Is This The End Of The Line For Karl Rove?

Many months before Karl Rove corrected his statements to the Grand Jury in the Valerie Plame case, his lawyer was told that the president's strategist might have disclosed Plame's CIA name (on July 11, 2003), to Time's Matt Cooper.

Uh-oh. Doesn't this mean endgame? Doesn't this make a perjury conviction a foregone conclusion? I don't really know. My attorney would know, but she's asleep (and she might not take kindly to me going downstairs and asking a fine point of law at midnight, just so I can keep the facts straight[1]). I know we'll hear over the next few days just what Prosecutor Fitzgerald has in store for Karl Rove. . .

[1] That presumes that keeping facts straight or maintaining any kind of normal division between fact, art, fantasy, or wild exaggeration, and telling the truth, is a mission of this blog. It's all true whether it happened or not. It all happened whether it's true or not. Which, is perhaps not a part of this footnote, but the germ of a new poem. Or both.

Alien Lore 50 - The August 1945 New Mexico UFO crash

click image to enlarge

In August 1945, a military mission passed through San Antonio, New Mexico on a recovery operation. The detail was from the White Sands Proving Grounds (where weeks earlier, an atomic bomb was exploded as a final test for the bomb the U.S. would drop in early August on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan). Soldiers in Army fatigues loaded what was left of a flying saucer onto a huge flatbed truck and hauled it away.

Two children--Remigio Baca and Jose Padilla, seven and nine years old--witnessed the aftermath of the crash that took place between about Aug. 20 and Aug. 25, 1945. Padilla and Baca later watched the military recovery work from a nearby hill.

The kids seem may have been the first people to see the crash site. They saw a long gash in the ground, and a saucer partially buried and a large field of debris. They believed the saucer was occupied by aliens that were still alive and moving after the crash.

They reported their discovery to Jose's father, Faustino Padilla, on whose ranch the craft had crashed. The military soon asked Faustino's permission to remove the flying saucer and debris.

This incident occurred well before the later, more publicized events at Roswell and Soccorro, and only resurfaced when Baca and Pedilla decided to tell their story.

click image to enlarge

Jose and Remegio didn't talk to others about it on the advice of their parents and a police friend. Their parents didn't want the scrutiny and publicity (and scorn and derision) that would engender. As time went on, however, the import of what they had witnessed grew. There were more and more reports of Greys and UFOs all around the country, and especially in New Mexico.

You may remember the story of Lonnie Zamora's April 24, 1964 report of a "manned" UFO just south of Socorro, 10 miles north of this Padilla Ranch crash.

Jose and Remigio reunited a few years ago, after more than four decades out of contact (on the internet, of course!). This amazing event they had witnessed was a big topic of discussion. They decided to tell the story to a reporter, Ben Moffett, who had gone to grade school with them. The entire story by Moffett is collected on http://rense.com.

With Friends Like Joe Lieberman, The Democrats Need No Enemies

An article in today's New York Times discusses Senator "Crazy" Joe Lieberman's sinking popularity in the Democratic Party.

You may know from previous articles in All This Is That that we consider him a Republicrat at best, and at worst, a Judas Goat and a turncoat spoiler, leading Democrats astray in the guise of moderation. Is anyone even listening to him except the G.O.P.? Any sane Democrat wrote him off years ago; he reinforced our thinking with his bumbling, pathetic run for the Presidency in 2004.

He was a disastrous pick for Vice President in 2000, and his recent defense of, and cozying up to The White House only leads us to believe he will switch parties sooner or later.

While we'd hate to lose another Democrat, with friends like this sawed-off weasel, who needs enemies?

The Senator has recently outraged Democrats with his spirited defense of President Bush's handling of the Iraq war. It's disgusting to see the little runt cozying up to The President and Vice-President.

From The New York Times: "Mr. Lieberman particularly infuriated his colleagues when he pointed out at a conference here that President Bush would be commander in chief for three more years and said that "it's time for Democrats who distrust President Bush to acknowledge that."

"We undermine the president's credibility at our nation's peril," Mr. Lieberman said.

We take Joe Lieberman seriously at our own great peril.

Moron, Imbecile, Idiot Defined

The development of the IQ test was followed by a classification system that used terms to describe degrees of impairment:

Moron (51–70 IQ)
Imbecile (26–50 IQ)
Idiot (0–25 IQ).

These terms were later softened and the classifications redefined.

somewhat to mild retardation (55–70)
moderate (40–54),
severe (25–39)
profound (0–24) retardation.

The phrase mentally retarded itself, although still used, has been replaced in some settings by the term developmentally disabled.

Alien Lore 49 - Walter Cronkite's UFO Encounter

Walter Cronkite was America's trusted and avuncular newsman for many years. He was there for JFK's assassination and a few years later he reported on the U.S. moon landing. I remember polls saying that he could have taken a shot at the Presidency himself.

We knew him all those years, but we never knew the private person. He managed to work the TV news business for many years without being involved in scandals, and without revealing much about himself.

In 1973, CBS was working on a documentary about UFOs. UFOs and aliens had reached a high point in popularity that had been climbing ever since the Roswell incident. Books, magazines, and movies about UFOs were appearing constantly.

In 1973 (this is pre-cable, friends, where even major cities had three television stations), CBS was the king of the hill and everything they did was watched (literally) by the whole world. The "special" was to be hosted by CBS News reporters, but Cronkite would do the interviews.

The story is verbatim from Bill Knell of Paranormal News.

"I was presenting several seminars a month on the subject and had already been involved with the media. Although I hadn't written any books, several articles I wrote were used by various newspapers and magazines around the world. As it happened, Walter Cronkite read a small piece that I wrote for a now-defunct UFO publication. The topic of the article was the Air Force cover-up of UFO information and a few cases I had investigated. Cronkite was making a list of people he wanted to interview for the CBS special and the article interested him. In 1973, I received a letter from CBS News indicating their interest in my work. After a few phone calls, I was able to meet and speak with the man himself! On a cool New York day in late September of 1973, I sat down and had an informal lunch with Walter Cronkite. By then, I had learned not to be star-struck by anyone. Because of my father's position as an officer in the Air Force, I had met a lot of important people. Still, I was in awe of this News Giant! The funny thing was that his manner was so gentle and laid-back that within a few minutes I was completely at ease. I guess that was his gift and the thing that made him such a successful news anchor.

"As we lunched, Cronkite told me about the TV Special and indicated that he wanted to interview me. He wanted a younger person's perspective on the phenomenon. Most of the UFO researchers in those days were older and had taken up the topic as a Retirement project. Cronkite was very interested in some of the Air Force stories I had collected. He was especially interested in the fact that I had grown-up in an Air Force family as a person interested in researching UFOs. After about 30 minutes of talking, Cronkite said to me, "Let me tell you my UFO story." For the next five minutes I sat in stunned silence as he told me what had happened. In the 1950s Cronkite was part of a pool of News Reporters brought out to a small South Pacific island to watch the test of a new Air Force missile. After a short inspection of the new system by the reporters, they were lead to an area that was a safe distance from the launch site. The missile was mounted on a specially-built launcher that was attached to a cement base. It was obvious that the area had been quickly built just for the test. The details about the missile were going to be given to the reporters in the form of hand-out sheets and press releases after the test.

"Cronkite mentioned that he and the other reporters had been warned that photography of the missile test and any audio transmissions or recordings by the press were forbidden. They would have to give a written account of the event. Just as the test was ready to proceed, everyone was writing as fast as they could. As Air Force Security personnel walked around the perimeter of the test area with guard dogs and the news reporters watched, the missile was fired-up and about to be released. Just then, a large disc-type UFO appeared on the scene. Cronkite guessed that the object was about 50-60 feet in diameter, a dull grey color and had no visible means of propulsion. Because the noise of activity around him and the missile engine was so loud, he couldn't tell whether the disc made any noise. He did not notice any coming directly from the object. As Air Force guards ran toward the UFO with their dogs, the disc hovered about 30 feet off of the ground. It suddenly sent out a blue beam of light which struck the missile, a guard and a dog all at the same time. The
missile was frozen in mid-air about 70 feet from the launcher as it had taken off. A guard was frozen in mid-step and a dog frozen in mid-air as it had jumped at the disc. Cronkite reminded me that this all happened within the space of about five minutes or less.

"Suddenly, the missile exploded! After that, the disc vanished. The guard and dog looked alright, but were quickly taken away by medical personnel always present at tests in case anyone became injured. At the same time, guards rapidly ushered the reporters into a concrete observation bunker. After about thirty minutes of sitting in that hot box, they were brought out into the air again and addressed by an Air Force Colonel. The officer told them, "It was all part of the test." Obviously making it up as he went along, the Colonel said that the event was "staged" to test media reaction to UFOs. He reinforced the usual line to the reporters that Flying Saucers were probably not extra-terrestrial, but what people were actually seeing was secret planes being tested by the Air Force. This test was designed to show the media how "shocking" it could be to suddenly view a new technology. Well, Cronkite was certain that what he viewed was a new technology, but he was also sure it was not an Earthly one. He didn't believe the Air Force explanation then, and he still didn't believe it at the time when he told me the story. After the event, reporters were told that since it was a test of media reaction to new technology, they could not report on it! But, they would be compensated later with exclusive stories on new Air Force projects (a promise that was never kept). Being as private as he was, Cronkite never did share with me his own beliefs about UFOs beyond the story he told me. I was so happy to have heard the story that I was afraid to ask anything further.

"The CBS UFO Special was filmed shortly after my meeting with Cronkite and I was included in it for just a few minutes. During the filming, I became aware that Cronkite had not shared his story with most of the other UFO investigators or witnesses. After the special aired I called one of Cronkite's staff members and asked him if he had ever heard the UFO story. He told me he had. Cronkite had only shared it with a few key people and it was NOT covered or even mentioned in the Special. I wondered why Cronkite had chosen to tell me the story without telling everyone? The staff members told me that most of the others were so busy telling him about themselves that he just never bothered. "

Good News, Bad News: Rummy Is Going To Take A Powder But He May Be Replaced By That Sawed-Off Republicrat Sen. "Crazy" Joe Liberman

White House officials expect Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to quit early next year, following the elections and new government in Iraq, according to a story in the New York Daily News.

Rummy's deputy Gordon England heads the short list to replace him. The bad news: there are rumors that sawed-off ferret-faced Republicrat Sen. Joe Lieberman is on the list too.

Rummy wanted out a year ago, but both he and The President didn't want it to look like he was being run out on a rail. "They didn't want to give the critics the satisfaction that their piling on was what got rid of him," a Bush adviser said.

The article goes on to say that Bush has told friends that Rumsfeld is a political liability.

"Sure, he had to zap a few guys on their [testicles] to get them in line, but, man, look at what he did. He was no problem. In fact, he kept the Iranians at bay. He helped keep the balance over there. He was more afraid of the Taliban than we are."

The Poetry of Secretary Donald Rumsfeld XV::::::::New Rumsfeld Poems From The Dec. 6, 2005 Defense Dept. Briefing

1 Why Don't We Try To Do This

Why don't we try to do this:
To have one question per person
And ask the question of one person.
In that way, more people
Will have an opportunity to ask a question.

2 They Are

It is considerably more difficult today
For terrorist networks to recruit,
To raise money,
To move across national boundaries,
To communicate with each other,
To conduct terrorist raids.

That's not to say that
They're not able to do it.

They are.

3 The Way Our System Works

You can have some schools
That think one way
And some schools that think another way.
And, of course, there are consequences to (laughs)
To what they think.

But that's fair enough, too.
That's the way our system works.

4 Progress

It's a tough business,
And it'll take some time.

And they'll be two steps forward
And a half a step back from time to time.

And everyone will throw up their hands and say,
"Henny Penny, the sky's falling.

Everything's terrible.
The glass is half empty."

poem: Zombie Breakdown

The undead walk
Sloughing tendrils of putrified flesh
And the living
Are made of cardboard

The border between
Being and nothingness is erased
The dead and not dead yet
Straddle a razor-thin margin

The dead reactivate
And flicker on to rampage
Shattered people and things
Litter the streets in their wake

The armies disintegrate
Soldiers gone A.W.O.L.
And the rest band with warlords
To plunder and protect the chosen




Rumor and speculation circle
Besieged pockets of life
Are the zombies a government experiment
Gone terribly wrong or terribly right?

Human activity can be accomplished
Unconsciously without memory or perception
And a one track mind keeps the focus
On consuming human flesh

The virus has no known cure
Lopping off the infected area
Won't stop the transmogrification
Into the living dead

Zombies can't open doorknobs or latches
Or climb stairs or walls
Zombies are weak on their own
But in concert with other zombies

The threat is unveiled
Legions of shuffling tireless flesh-eating machines attack
And soon you're one of them
Fee Fie Foe Fum.

Alien Lore No. 48 - New Mexico, UFOS, and Hootch

New Mexico has had far more than its share of Aliens and UFO sightings. Clovis, Socorro, "Chloe” near Taos, Dulce, and the big kahuna, Roswell. The Roswell Story blew everything else out of the water.

The Clovis Journal has an interesting and humorous article today, partly dealing with Roswell envy. Bob Huber writes:

"But before these sagas got completely out of hand, the community of Roswell, in a grand gesture of conciliation, topped all space fantasies by exploiting its “Roswell Story,” a simple, ageless fable about a crashed spacecraft brimming with smooshed aliens, brass bands, confetti, Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders, and a top secret military cover up aimed at erasing an entire year in which absolutely nothing important took place."

The New York Times reported yesterday:

"The problem is more complex than mere alcohol consumption. New Hampshire leads the nation in drinking, with 4 gallons a year per person, far more than New Mexico's 2.4 gallons. But New Hampshire's alcohol-related road fatality rate is less than half of New Mexico's. "

Is there a link between all the gargle they put away in New Mexico and all those UFOs and aliens running around? Probably not. Those stolid New Hampshirites, putting away almost twice the amount as New Mexicans, report very few aliens and UFOs.

It Was 72 Years Ago Today That Prohibition Ended

Seventy-two years ago today (12-5-1933), the 21st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified, which repealed the 18th Amendment and ended an era of national prohibition of alcohol.

The movement for the prohibition of alcohol began in the early 19th century, when Americans concerned about the adverse effects of drinking formed temperance societies. By the 1890's, these groups were a powerful political force on the state level and began calling for national liquor abstinence. Several states outlawed the manufacture or sale of alcohol within their own borders.

In December 1917, the 18th Amendment, prohibiting the "manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes," was passed by Congress and sent to the states for ratification. The amendment did not officially take effect until January 29, 1920.In the meantime, Congress passed the Volstead Act on October 28, 1919, which added federal enforcement of these laws. Al Capone became a millionaire, and America was dry those first few years of The Great Depression.

The Naked Bible

It seems like All This Is That has stepped into the seamier side of life these last few days. Why should we stop now?!

A German church youth group is publishing a 2006 calendar with 12 photos depicting erotic scenes from the Bible, the pictures shown here of a bare-breasted Delilah shearing Samson, and a naked Eve offering up an apple.

Anne Rohmer, 21, wears garters and stockings as the prostitute Rahab (mentioned in both New and Old Testaments). "We wanted to represent the Bible in a different way and to interest young people," she told Reuters.

Bernd Grasser, pastor of the church in Nuremberg where the calendar is being sold, was enthusiastic about the project which is detailed on their web site (in German).

Alien Lore No. 47 - President Harry S. Truman Inspected A UFO Crash in 1947

Click image to enlarge...

Note: This material comes from two files in the UFO spaces on the internet. Neither of the files is attributed. I have always been interested in HST as a President, since I was conceived in the last weeks of his administration...

A British politician says the U.S. government recovered the bodies of four extraterrestrials and the wreckage of their starship in 1947. He claims to have the secret report that proves it! As you may or may not know, President Truman is not the only President to have a UFO encounter. This one seemed to have spooked The President sufficiently that he ended up establishing the notorious black-op Majestic 12.

"The United States has been involved in a massive cover-up of alien contact for better than 40 years," said the politician, who asked to remain anonymous when he gave copies of the document to reporters in the House of Lords. "This is bigger than any mere Watergate," he added. "This is a cosmic Watergate - and it's time the truth was told."

The papers, signed by President Harry Truman (who saw the deceased aliens), were addressed to the most powerful figures in Britain. Then Prime Minister Clement Atlee got a copy, as did Winston Churchill, King George VI, the Queen Mother and leaders of the House of Lords.

The leaders' reactions reportedly ranged from shock and amazement to outright fear. The document itself stressed the need to keep the recovery operation a secret to avoid "a massive religious backlash and worldwide panic." It went on to describe the extraterrestrials in chilling detail.

"Four small human-like beings apparently ejected from the craft before it exploded and crashed in America's southwest," said the report. "All four were dead and decomposed due to predators and exposure to the elements before their discovery. The beings were between four and f ive feet tall. They wore tight-fitting silver jumpsuits. Their heads were disproportionately large, with oversized brown eyes, slanted in t he head. Their noses and mouth were mere slits. They had small holes for ears."

The document went on to say that pieces of the starship were strewn for miles. Analysis showed the fragments to be a strong and lightweight metal but were otherwise inconclusive. The report did not pinpoint the location of the crash, nor did it say where the bodies and fragments were taken. But, as you know from earlier postings, the likeliest destination was Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio - where the bodies of four more humaniods were taken after another crash 10 years later. There has also been much speculation that the bodies ended up at Area 51, near Rachel, Nevada.

The U.S. Government has never confirmed either crash, however, UFO experts are convinced that both wreckage and bodies have been preserved. In fact a super-secret government agency, code-named PI 40 [jb note: so secret, I'd never heard of them until today], keeps tabs on alien visitors and briefs U.S. Presidents on past and present UFO developments.

Gerber Pasche, the founder and president of the Swiss UFO watchdog group, Alien Encounter, was appalled to learn of the cover-up. He told reporters that the governments of the United States and Britain should be held accountable - and tried in the court of world opinion. "The irony of all this is that everybody knows what's going on - we've known for years," he said. "Space aliens exist and have a deep and abiding interest in our planet. This is a concern of all mankind - not just superpower leaders."

Condoleeza And Redford: The Rig Was Rockin'!

The annual Kennedy Center Honors were celebrated last night in Washington. The left and the right forgot about the White House disasters for a night to pay tribute to Robert Redford, Tony Bennett, Julie Harris, Tina Turner, and the ballerina Suzanne Farrell. The five were honored for their lifetime contributions to the arts.

At a dinner for 300 hosted on Saturday by U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, even the jaded and well-oiled politicians seemed awe-struck meeting these entertainment icons.

The gossip mill cranked into full gear following the event. Secretary of State Rice and Actor-Producer-Director Redford were seen in numerous close embraces. One reporter at the event said "They were smoldering. They couldn't keep their hands off each other. It got so hot and heavy that other people at their table became extremely uncomfortable." Their departure from the soiree was reportedly like the notorious Angie Dickinson car scene in De Palma's Dressed To Kill.

Another scribe reported seeing the couple emerge from the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington this morning "looking extremely disheveled and very happy." He noted further that as Secretary Rice got into a limousine, she and Redford embraced and kissed for several minutes, oblivious to the honking of taxis and limousines behind them.

Fence Jumper At The White House. . .Who Looks Like A Laughing Academy Escapee

click photo to enlarge

Shawn A. Cox, an Arkansas man, scaled the fence around the White House today, while President Bush was in residence.

Looking at the photo of of this nutjob in custody--he is either utterly deranged, or a most accomplished ham actor. He probably just wanted to have a chat with POTUS and Laura. Who wouldn't?

He was immediately bagged by the Secret Service. Secret Service spokesmen said the intruder's name was Unlawful entry charges will be filed tomorrow in U.S. District Court. Cox has some sort of record with the Secret Service, but the spokemen and the spooks in the Secret Service wouldn't talk about it yet.

Cox was unarmed. He refused to answer a reporter's question about why he jumped the fence.

Sen. George Allen Gets Ready For A Run For The Roses

Sen. George Allen rallied Virginia Republicans yesterday for his 2006 reelection campaign, telling them that he would stand for low taxes, energy independence and opposition to "activist judges" on the U.S. Supreme Court. In other words, he stands for shafting the underpriveleged, raising deficits, assuring energy independence by putting the screws to the Middle-east, and for packing a few more troglodytes onto the Supreme Court.

The Senator is edging closer to hucking his cowboy hat into the Presidential campaign sewer, along with Clinton, Kerry, Edwards, McCain, Frist (if he escapes indictment), Richardson, Bayh, Biden, and the rest of the pack.

I don't know who the Democrats will settle on, but if we're going to war with a field of George Allens, we have a shot at retaking the White House, along with both houses of Congress.

President Bush Quote Of The Day

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

- President George W. Bush

Poem: Heaven

You give a knowing wink
To Saint Peter as the gates whir open

You're off the map boy
With just a soul to your name

You pile your clothes and credit cards
On top of your toys and bones

And walk in whistling
Adios Republicans cops and commuting

Concupiscent thoughts drift in
Where's the girls music and beverages?

Rod Serling walks around the corner
In a cloud of smoke.

Part 3: More Quotes From Pres. Ronald Reagan

Don't be afraid to see what you see.

I have left orders to be awakened at any time in case of national emergency, even if I'm in a cabinet meeting.

How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

I call upon the scientific community in our country, those who gave us nuclear weapons, to turn their great talents now to the cause of mankind and world peace: to give us the means of rendering these nuclear weapons impotent and obsolete.

People don't start wars, governments do.

The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'

Would You Like To Buy Jerry Garcia's Toilet?

A Southern California charitable auction is offering three toilets and a bidet from the mansion of late Grateful Dead rocker Jerry Garcia. Now, this is one of my heroes. I'm not so sure that I want to buy his commode.

"Henry Koltys of Tiburon bought Garcia's home in 1997, two years after Garcia died. Koltys said it occurred to him he could raise a lot of money for the Sophia Foundation, a charity for children from broken homes.

'The toilets, bidet, a Jacuzzi tub and various household fixtures can be viewed at sophia-foundation.org, and will go up for auction on eBay from Dec. 18-24, the San Francisco Chronicle said.

'Each toilet comes with a certificate of authenticity which states only that the toilet came from Garcia's house.

" 'I can't represent that Jerry Garcia actually used the toilets,' Koltys said. 'But he lived in the house. He was human. I'm not clairvoyant, but you can make reasonable assumptions.' "

Bidding on the toilets starts at $500, the bidet at $350, and the Jacuzzi at $5,000. There are also freezers and other appliances available.

No Hot Sex In Prince of Wales & Duchess Of Cornwall Biopic

Whatever Love Means--the Charles And Camilla Biopic--will not have any sex, according to producer Jolyon Symonds. "It is a very sensitive issue and we did not want to antagonize anyone." The 3 1/2 million dollar movie will skip over the hot parts to avoid upsetting the Windsors. The closest they come is showing a hand snaking underneath the prince's dressing gown.

Maybe this isn't such a bad thing.

There is no word if the script includes revelations from the 1993 'Camillagate' tapes, a recording of a cell phone conversation in which Charles talked about being reincarnated as a tampon and living inside Camilla's knickers.

Alien Lore No. 46 - Dark Skies

In 1996-97, Dark Skies, one of my all-time favorite television shows, aired. The show detailed the Greylien "history" that has accumulated (like tartar) over the years. Unlike other shows, Dark Skies established an elaborate mythology and framework for the grey lore, built through research of the voluminous outpouring of writing and reporting on alien-related topics. Bryce Zabel developed a five year plan for the show, ranging from the early 60's to the millennium, all grounded in historical events. Each episode details the impact of The Hive on historical events. Harry Truman, The Beatles, Ed Sullivan, Jack Ruby, William Paley, Hubert Humphrey, JFK, Bobby Kennedy (in a recurring role), Timothy Leary, Jim Morrison, Jerry Rubin, Carl Sagan, and others all appear on the program. The "lookalike" actors are outrageously over the top and campy...which adds a note of bent humor to the proceedings.

The Greys, it seems, are merely hosts for the real aliens, called the Hive. The Hive is far more dangerous and insidious than the Greys. The Greys, in fact, are a race not particularly warlike until they are taken over by The Hive.



The Hive in the form of The Greys has stealthily infested America, and the world. The awful truth is kept from the American people by Captain Frank Bach, the leader of a super-secret government organization called Majestic-12. John Loengard and Kim Sayers are on the run from the alien Hive and from the Government. Their travels lead them all around the country as they learn more about the massive infestation of The Hive, and Majestic's efforts to control it at any cost. It's never clear in the show whether the cure is worse than the illness.

Dark Skies seamlessly put together science fiction, UFOlogy, and past political events and social movements that took place during the 50's and late 60's. Unlike the X Files, Dark Skies was a one trick pony--it was about aliens, and UFOs, and nothing else. They cancelled the show just as it was getting traction. You can get a bootleg copy of the series. I did just that, and I enjoyed the show even more the second time around.

Episode One: The Awakening
Bureaucrat John Loengard and his girlfriend Kimberly Sayers stumble across UFO information considered off-limits by the top-secret Majestic-12 group headed by Col. Frank Bach. Loengard joins Bach and the Majestic group, before becoming disillusioned with their desire to shield the public from the truth. Loengard steals evidence to persuade President Kennedy onto their side, propelling the couple on a dangerous journey where the future of the world is at stake.



Episode Two: Moving Targets
Following Kennedy's assassination, John and Kimberly learn from an eyewitness about the first alien encounter years earlier at Roswell. But when the couple return to Washington for the President's funeral, they discover a more sinister alien plan to destroy world government.



Episode Three: Mercury Rising
Kimberly's recurring dreams of a floating astronaut lead them to the newly re-named Cape Kennedy launch center, where they meet astronaut Ty Yount, a fellow alien abductee. Though Yount was not implanted, Kim realizes that his co-pilot was. Kimberly and Loengard eventually discover that the Hive intends to sabotage the next manned space launch -- and they risk their lives trying to stop the final countdown. They do of course. And the world is safe(r) for another week.

Episode Four: Dark Days Night
The Beatles are coming to America, and the Hive has an evil plan to use this event to cause mass suicide. As John and Kim have found out, some humans aren't suitable for implantation for some, as yet, unknown reason. While these people were aboard the alien ships they were hypnotized and given a post-hypnotic suggestion that, when activated, will cause them to go into a trance of sorts and kill themselves. Captain Bach and Loengard team up temporarily on this venture to stop the Hive from broadcasting the glyph during the Beatles set on the Ed Sullivan Show, and they are successful.

The show goes on, and the Beatles become the sensation that we've all come to love. Loengard and Kim leave New York and search for their next adventure.

Episode Five: Dreamland
Billionaire recluse Howard Hughes joins John and Kimberly's investigation of an underground alien base, mistakenly believing the Hive implantees are communists. This episode is wonderful merely for the nutty portrayal of Hughes.

Episode Six: Inhuman Nature
Loengard and Kimberly investigate a series of Midwest cattle mutilations bearing bizarre alien markings. When they recruit a veterinary student to probe a similar living cow, they are shocked at what they find.

Episode Seven: Ancient Future
The great Alaskan earthquake of 1964 uncovers a ghostly alien scout ship, which provides John with glimpses of the future, a future where the aliens have won.

Episode Eight: Hostile Convergence
Loengard attempts to publicly reveal plans by the U.S. government to replicate an alien spacecraft at Area 51. Kimberly attends her sister's wedding, only to find that Majestic's reach extends close to home. Bach makes a horrific discovery when he interrogates a violently ill Jack Ruby.

Episode Nine: We Shall Overcome
Mississippi in the 1960's was a very hostile place. Racial divides were still quite strong, but times were slowly and painfully changing. The Civil Rights movement was in full swing but the Hive had other plans for humanity.

Our own species' lack of unity provided the Hive with a weapon that, although, mostly silent, kept the people fighting amounts themselves instead of uniting to combat the real threat from the stars.

Then FBI director J. Edger Hoover and Majestic clash over who has authority in the Mississippi events, and finally one of Bach's men meets with Hoover and refuses to disclose any information to him, and this displeases Hoover, but the Hoover would be silenced. Majestic knew about Hoover's gay lover, Clyde, and Hoover agreed to drop the matter if they didn't disclose that information to the public.

This one problem was resolved, but it is now clear to John and Kim that the Hive will use any means to conquer humanity through total subversion of our culture. They will continue to exploit our weaknesses until we resolve them.

Episode Ten: The Last Wave
Loengard and Sayers return to Los Angeles to bury a college friend who died under suspicious circumstances. With the help of college friends, and a young Jim Morrison, they uncover the truth behind the illness which has been killing surfers.

Episode Eleven: The Enemy Within
Seeking shelter with his family, John discovers his brother has become Hive, and that Majestic is watching. John is committed to a mental institution by his parents when he tries to remove the alien implant from his brother. Bach uncovers a Hive operative within Majestic.

Episode Twelve: The Warren Omission
With the Warren Commission looking into the assassination of his brother, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy asks John to testify. Despite Bach's warning, Kennedy paves the way with his own testimony before Loengard describes the events that led him into Majestic. And while John has a long way to go before convincing a skeptical Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren and his fellow commission members of his story, Bach decides to thoroughly discredit him anyway.

Episode Thirteen: White Rabbit
On a stealth mission to Vietnam, Bach and John are captured by North Vietnamese. Back in the United States, Kimberly takes matters into her own hands. . .and kidnaps Bach's wife.

When Soviet operatives fire on a Hive ship over the Gulf of Tonkin, Bach claims that US naval vessels were their target and starts the country's involvement in the Vietnam War. After air strikes down a Hive ship, Bach kidnaps Loengard for a reconnaissance mission. Yet, when military officials express reservations about having Majestic's Juliet Stuart co-ordinating with Russians also tracking the Hive, Bach joins Loengard for the trip himself. Teamed with Vietnamese guide Tay Ma, Loengard comes across a crazed American soldier as he finds a Grey's severed head. And when John finds that the crash site has been visited by the Viet Cong, Bach orders him to destroy it while requesting an air strike that could kill them all. Of course, they escape.

Episode Fourteen: Shades of Gray
Both John and Kim now working for Bach and Majestic. They plan to use the resources of Majestic to further their cause while secretly trying to take over the organization from within. Majestic's latest plan is to lure and capture an alien craft by making a fake crop circle. The plan works, but Majestic fails to down the alien craft. An injured Grey is left behind, and he scurries off into the cover of night. Bach decides to send John and Kim after the grey, because of Kim's unique ability to track them using her Ganglion-induced sixth sense.

The Grey finds a little girl named Monica and he persuades her to help him. John and Kim find the gray, but Monica almost kills them, but Juliet, the Russian operative working with Majestic shows up and saves them. They recover the Grey and head back to the Majestic base camp. A successful A.R.T. is preformed on the Grey and the now friendly Grey begins to communicate with Kim telepathically. She learns that Monica is in danger, and John and Juliet head over to the girl's house to help. They rescue her just in time.

Back at the base camp, the gray continues to communicate with Kim, and she learns a lot about the history of the Gray species before the Hive arrived. She also learns some shocking news. She's pregnant... and the child is Hive.

Episode Fifteen: Burn, Baby, Burn
A man helps Loengard search for pregnant Kimberly amid the Watts riots, after aliens abduct her in Los Angeles. A lot of crazy scenes of the Watts Towers and footage of the riots are included.


Episode Sixteen: Both Sides Now
Anti-war demonstrations led by Jerry Rubin sweep up Loengard and Juliet on a mission in Berkeley, California, to shut down a Hive operation

Episode Seventeen: To Prey in Darkness
The search for the Roswell alien-encounter film leads Loengard and Juliet to crusading columnist Dorothy Kilgallen and a TV news network.

Episode Eighteen: Strangers in the Night
Juliet and John are sent with Major Colin Powell to investigate the collapse of Aura-Z, the USSR's equivalent of Majestic, while Bach enlists the help of astronomer Carl Sagan to track down the Hive's home planet.

Episode Nineteen: Bloodlines
Alerted to a planet size object (the Hive's Tenth Planet) transmitting a message to Earth, Bach orders Dr Carl Sagan to decode it while he keeps the news from Majestic's directors. And though he's kept in the dark, Albano agrees to ask the captured Gray to shed some light on its contents. Meanwhile, Loengard and Juliet use Dr Timothy Leary to find the San Francisco lab where the Hive has been producing a hallucinogen under the direction of Steele and Kim. And when Kim tosses the drug into John's face, it causes him to see their son aboard a Hive ship.

Loengard offers to infiltrate the Hive's mothership to gain critical intelligence data and find his son. At the end he tells us he succeeded.

Albano kills Frank Bach and reveals that he is now Hive.

At the end of the episode, Loengard speaks thirty years later. He alludes to the fact that somehow the Hive were beaten.
