The Spirituality of STRANGER THINGS

Here is a reflection written by a Christian minister concerning the smash Netflix series STRANGER THINGS. And it isn’t what you might initially expect. The rantings and ravings of people who brand themselves as “Christian” may have conditioned you to automatically expect the worst. They certainly have done that with me—and I *am* a practicing…

Bigfoot is Missing!

According to police reports, someone stole Bigfoot—or a concrete version of him—from his home in front of Mattress Monsterz in Boynton Beach, in southern Florida. Considering that the statue would have weighed over 300 pounds, stealing it took some determination. Unless the statue came to life and walked off all on its own. Or maybe…

THE HUNT Part Eighteen

Garrett Roth hadn’t expected to live, anyway. From the moment he’d crossed through from the world he knew into this other place, this other dimension, he’d known he would never return. There are some things men were never meant to know and some places they were never meant to go. Those are the provinces of…

Tracking the Thylacine

“Decades after the last captive thylacine died, the hunt for the Tasmanian tiger is very much alive.” So begins this linked article. And decades after the last surviving thylacine, aka the Tasmanian Tiger, aka the Tasmanian Wolf, supposedly died, people keep seeing them. These are credible sightings, too. A lot of the time in cases…

Conversely I tend to not write about things I don’t like (or, if something really sticks in my craw, I’ll write about it in order to excoriate it). I haven’t written much about…

Your Weekly Dose of Stupidity

As I’ve said before, it only takes one. Let just one person complain, and your average company will acquiesce to the demands, no matter how lacking in credibility those demands might be. Or, to be brutally honest, how stupid they are, and how stupid it is that the complainant got offended in the first place.…

Is that the Wolfman?

I have to give credit to my mates in the Ed Wood appreciation site on Facebook for providing me with inspiration for this article. Thanks, guys! Check out these pictures. Do they look the same to you? They certainly are similar. The one on the left is a Halloween mask of the Wolfman. It is…

Where’s the Wolfman?

The other night I went to a Dave and Buster’s for a friend’s bachelor party. If you aren’t familiar with the chain, they are a combination restaurant, sports bar, and video game arcade. Think Chuck E. Cheese except more for grown-ups, and serving burgers and chicken wings instead of pizza. It was a lot of…
