Smash Monsanto!

And that is yet another thing to bolster the chances of finding critters out there. And what mind-blowing critters they’d be!

Nice guy, that Wilhelm, eh, helping folks out like that…

Personally, to reiterate what I said above, I am of the opinion that they are, oh, just a tad smarter than us…

I love Martian dust devils. Really. I do. Don’t know why, really… they’re just cool – in a decidedly alien sort of way.

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 just way too cool not to share.

How I wish that I could go to this conference and just listen… oh does this sort of thing get me excited…

This would seem to lend a pretty large helping of support for the theory that the Moon was created as a result of a major collision with something quite large soon after the Earth itself had formed and was apparently still cooling.

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.

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…

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

[...] For me it’s the mysterious second video, if for no better reason than the fact that to these eyes that freaky deaky motion looks almost organic and alive, as opposed to the first video’s “spy casting his flashlight (torch) about” look way there on top of that cloud. [...]

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.

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.

So, there is something very, very Fortean about such fantastically powerful acoustic conundrums. After all, there just weren’t no Commies in the latter part of the 1600s!

Natural phenomena, perhaps? Sure, very possibly. The Earth can generate some pretty wild stuff and does so on a regular basis, so indeed many booms may be just that.

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.

Well, well now… this creature is certainly unusual… it’s half animal… and it’s half plant… and according to this article in LiveScience, the only one known to possess a certain unique quality – making it’s own chlorophyll and it’s own food – from light! How weird is that?
