    Got a mixed bag of books to work through, and it's a good job, as I am in need of a little rest, as I have been getting really tired recently,

    The Spinx Mystery by Robert and Olivia Temple
    The Roswell Legacy by Jesse and Linda Marcel
    Mind Over Matter by the Editors of TimeLife Books
    Hauntings by Paul Roland
    Assassination by Richard Belfield
    CIA-Secrets of the company by Mick Farren
    The Murder of Biggie Smalls
    A Skeptic Handbook of Parasychology edited by Paul Kurtz

    I also invested in "Righteous Kill" featuring DeNiro, Pacino and 50Cent (!)

    Not a lot going on over here, just more RDS research.

    Hope all is well, my wife had her specialist appointment yesterday to chat about M.E.N.1, and I have my cardiologist appointment soon, in the meantime, keep watching the skies, tv, the oceans, internet, etc
    Regards Mike

      Philip Jose Farmer

      Hey Gang,

      Hope you're all doing well.

      I just heard that Philip Farmer, author of the Riverworld series has died. I hate to hear this. I loved Riverworld. The books, not the TV show supposedly based on the books.


      Hi Dan, Downtown Athens? Holy cow. I guess it's feasible that that critter I saw could have been a coyote. I'm not thrilled about it.

      You sure those were coyotes and not dawgs doing that dumpster diving?

      Sorry, couldn't resist. Coyotes dumpster diving in Dawgtown. Somehow, "How 'bout them coyotes!" doesn't have the same ring, does it?

        Farmer lived here in Peoria. I hadn't heard that he died.

        Tonight, MonsterQuest and UFO Hunters are on but I don't know what the topics are.

        I seems there's a movement afoot to change the names UFO/Flying Saucers to UAP for Unidentified or Unexplained Aerial Phenomenon.
        This my opinion and to the best of my knowledge, that is, if I'm not joking.

          Ghost Hunters was from Wright Patterson AFB last night, location of the alleged remains from Roswell. When some of the team where doing a walk around, they noticed the book, "The Roswell Report" on the desk of one of the staff members, I chuckled, but the wife didn't get it!

            Farmer died at his home here yesterday. He supposedly has two more books coming out this year.

              It was 3 years ago yesterday that I lost my best friend in a terrible motorbike accident, still miss him.

              Wendy Richards passed away yesterday, she is known for her roles in Eastenders, and Are you being served.

              Spot the Hamster also passed away yesterday, poor Bradley was heartbroken!

                Farmer was 91.

                Sorry to hear about Spot.

                  Bradley took it really badly, and I know it's harsh, but he has to learn about death and loss, as it affects us all. He is better today, but I had to warn his teachers, as they have been discussing pets at school!

                  Here is some news,

                  Robert Rines, Loch Ness investigator believes Nessie is dead!!

                  He states that he was carrying out sonar work and spotted what could be the remains of nessie at the bottom of the Loch!
                  Monsterquest are teaming up with Rines to check to see what it actually is at the bottom of the loch!

                    I'm sorry to hear about Spot. Please give Brad my condolences. Is there going to be another pet in the future?

                    I'm also sorry about your friend, Mike. I can't even contemplate that happening.

                    Stan, I knew Farmer was old but didn't realize he was that old.

                      The children still have "Fish" the fish and "Noddy" the rabbit, so where not looking at another pet just yet. He has had a good day at school and hasn't mentioned spot for a while so I think he has accepted that spot won't be coming back.

                        Hiddy-ho Gang,

                        Doing alright?

                        Stan, That UAP business sounds like some kind of PC-ness applied to UFOs.

                        Mike, My husband used to go in and out of that building all the time. He was stationed at Wright Pat for 3 years and his job took him in there frequently. I bet that book was a plant!

                        Jeff, Hope you and the folks are okay.

                          It's sewer 'gators on MonsterQuest tomorrow.

                          I'm watching Hold That Ghost tonight in honor of Lou Costello who died 50 years ago today.

                              Ghosthunters last night was at some hotel in some princess room and they picked up the clearest audio EVP's I have ever heard!

                              On our last investigation, we also picked up "something" but tapes are still being analysed!

                                Stan, We still haven't made a move on the shooting business. I'll have to do some nudging, I guess.

                                Mike, That episode of Ghost Hunters has stood out in my mind, if it's the one where she say "I'm here. Where are you?" or something to that effect. I swear it was like two dimensions, as if she were still alive in her room and hearing them from the future. Gave me an odd feeling.
