Hey, now here’s a nice little tune… with a rare Fortean focus.

Pretty cool, pretty cool. Two hours of Fortean fun. I must say that the causes found for a few of of these incidents are nearly as odd as the events themselves!

This is one of the strangest incidents I have ever heard of. Wonder with me…. savor if you will just how powerful mental illness can be and just how weird human behavior can be.

I like this phenomena. I want to experience it very badly. Judging from the recent activity level, I may not have long to wait. These new, improved noises are different, though. Very different. They’re not at all like some unseen offshore Admiral is going bonkers with his cannons… no, no, these are sustained loud groanings and creakings and metallic thrashings. They can (and usually do) go for over an hour. They are quite seriously [...]

William Corliss. Photo from the Cryptomundo site.A deep sadness overtook me yesterday when I learned of the passing of William Corliss a month ago, on July 8th, 2011. William Corliss was the great Fortean man who I have always have called the reincarnation of Charles Hoy Fort himself, for his decades of ceaseless, tireless compilation of anomalous reports from around the world and the publication of same.

Additionally, APRA’s Queen Mary Ghost Girl Video Puts A Chill Down My Spine! It really does!

Ghosts can have that effect on me. Not sure why except possibly because they were once supposed to be people.

Found this fabulously Fortean painting by Phil Scroggs combining the spirit of Christmas and the fringes of UFOlogy a little while ago. Nicely, nicely done.

Thanks very much to you all for reading WATT, those few little hits that come this way are truly appreciated. They even help with depression abatement.

So… do any of you have anything you can provide regarding the seemingly simple question of – “What In The Hell Are They Doing?” Anyone?

The Giant Rock Project is just getting started and would love input from anyone interested in contributing to the project.

It’s such a sacred area and we want to encourage people to submit articles, tell us about their experiences and send pictures and videos as it applies to Giant Rock. The point is, to educate and bring attention to the area, so eventually getting it submitted as a historical site.

As readers might deduce from perusing these pages, I have long been a fan of the legendary artist R. Crumb. His visions have had a lasting influence upon what makes me who and what I am.

First up is a 3 and a half minute excerpt from the SciFi (SyFy) network’s coverage of the event, recently posted by Easynow at the notorious YouTube. I have seen this footage of Rod Dickinson’s through the years and I feel it is authentic… footage of what is the obvious question.  Bill George, an Academy [...]

We are all painfully aware of the environmental and economic devastation being caused by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Whether this disaster touches us personally or affects us indirectly, there is no doubt this is one of the worst ecological catastrophes in history.

Hey folks, there is an excellent new editorial by Brad Steiger over at the League of Western Fortean Intermediatists site… here’s a teaser for ya’…

There is a man, largely undiscovered by the modern world, whom I, and many others, believe made one of the most significant contributions to the world of science. Had it not been that he vehemently opposed modern scientists and their methods, his work might be enjoying a greater popularity than it does. Had this man decided to write about completely different topics, he would be hailed as a fabulous literary character. [...]

Ah, great, here’s the new vid from LunaCognita that looks into more of the footage shot during the Apollo missions. I posted a bit about the trailer for it a little while ago on this blog. [...]

So, we’re supposed to think that discarded pieces of our spacecraft can just take off on their own, eh?

This Saturday, February 6, tune in to Eye to the Sky radio with hostess Dee Andrew, and moi, (LOWFI founder Skylaire Alfvegren), master of disaster, as we discuss a number of subjects, including the Fortean mindset, my recent adventures in synchronicity, and undoubtedly, unexplained things in the sky.
