Grim Reaper.

Seriously… Who made this thing?

Vincent Price Museum Re-Opens in East L.A. Happy 100th Birthday, Dr. Phibes!

“Imagine growing up watching the person you love most being bludgeoned, immolated, dunked in boiling wax … or doing those things to other people,” remarked Victoria Price, the willowy daughter of Vincent Price, as an eclectic mix of art patrons and horror buffs recently celebrated the 100th anniversary of her dad’s birth at the Downtown Independent.

Dinochelus ausubeli, A Wicked-Clawed Deep Sea Nasty.

Wow, man, that’s one hell of a claw! I’m diggin’ it. It reminds one of a precision instrument that some technician might wield for maximum tweakage of something obscure and specialized.

The Remarkable Cecconi UFO Case: Cover Up Italian Style.

This is just like one of those much dreamt of “gun camera” shots that we who dig UFOs want so much to get our hands on. The difference here is that this one isn’t from a gun camera at all, rather it was exposed by one of the four Vinten reconnaissance cameras flying aboard the Aeritalia/Fiat G.91R jet fighter aircraft piloted by Italian Air Force Marshal Giancarlo Cecconi on the 18th of June, 1979.

Top Secret Custom iPad Protection from Speck and Apollo 15!

Let this custom Speck case and Apollo 15′s notorious Top Secret Shot protect your iPad from the rigors of reality.
… just what did the crew see, anyway? I really want to know, but I doubt any of us ever will.

“He’s Got The Cutest Little Feet!”

What this actually is caught me by surprise when I read the description below. Always pictured an adhesive pad as, well, an adhesive pad. I would never have imagined that at least this species of beetle is perched on a large array of extremely tiny feet. Wicked! The things we learn…

Well, Hi There!

I love this guy. What a strange and lovely face.

What In The Hell Are They Doing?

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

Natural Angles… Plus

Anyway, as soon as I saw the above image the first thing I thought was about how all the “para-gurus” and other self-proclaimed “experts” are always going on about how Mrs. Nature doesn’t “do” right angles. This is especially prevalent in postings about anomalous space imagery.

The Spirit Of America… In One Photo.

As Tara McGinley said at Dangerous Minds… “This pretty much sums it up.”

Wow. What a classic shot. What Tara stated so succinctly is so tragically true. What was once the “greatest country in the world” has been turned into something far, far different. And that something is displayed – perfectly – in the fortuitous photo displayed above.

They Are Pens… Right? No? Whoa!

This interesting email just came in from my friend Rodolfo Comas…

What do you think these are?

Apollo. 15. Magazine Of Mystery. Number 83.

This post was initially inspired by my running across an interesting page at Lunar Explorer Italia titled in part, AS 15-83-11218 and the Stephenville UFO: a VERY SMART image-comparison (by Carlo Contu). As you might gather, Mr. Contu noticed that the Apollo image in question and the sportiest image of the infamous Stephenville, Texas UFO are remarkably similar.

Explain THIS! A Video by Lunar Explorer Italia

A new video from the boffins over at Lunar Explorer Italia, this one dealing with an interesting look at what is perhaps yet another fossil, a flat little round guy of a nice size this time, unfortunately broken. But it’s reconstructed… and shown to compare favorably with an Earth organism called a Nummulite.

The Tantalizingly Tempting Thing On The Moon Tshirt

Ah, yes, well, here we have the lovely Luz along with righteous dude Darren both modeling variations of my Thing On The Moon Tshirt, which celebrates what may just be the strangest thing that I have ever clapped eyes on —namely, well, the “thing” — discovered back in the day by none other than the notorious Mr. John Lear.

Something Wicked This Way Comes…

I am fond of saying that the further from Earth we go, the weirder things get in a general sense. You’ll never convince me of otherwise. Ever. This object is just the latest in the ever-so-wacky universe that lies way, way, “out there.”

About the only thing agreed upon so far is that it isn’t a comet, based solely on composition… it’s assumed to be the result of a high speed asteroidal hit-and-run.

Classic Failures Of Secrecy

This fabulous failure in highly classified government signage comes to us via the wonderful failblog.org. I wonder if it’s really real, but somehow, I think it just may very well be. Isn’t it just wonderful? !

1987. Ilkley Moor. Visited?

What do you make of this picture? It is alleged to be an alien being, an EBE. Is it? I don’t know. I can say that it certainly looks like an alien being, in that it doesn’t look like anything familiar to me outside of anecdotes… and has a couple of differences even from them.

The Critters Of Enceladus

What the heck is that? I just knew you’d ask. This JPL image is a crop I chopped from the “full-res” image number N00121336 taken by the Cassini mission to Saturn, the top right catches a bit of the moon Enceladus. The thing at center left is, as you might imagine, unidentified. [...]
