Comment on Alien Abduction Outreach Vehicle Spotted in Plano, Texas by Tom and Elena

Tom and Elena — Sun, 20 Jan 2013 04:52:36 +0000

Saw what must be the same truck at Tom Thumb in Oak Cliff (Hampton Rd near 12th St.)–only with faded green paint, an awesome statue of Mary about two feet tall attached to the front grille, strings of beads, and a white wrought-iron headboard (more beads) in the bed of the truck. Sign on the side is the same….Delightful!!! He had heads whipping around and all of us laughing with delight as he drove through the parking lot. Whoever you are, thank you.

Saw what is apparently the same truck, enhanced, paint color faded green, new adornments–great statue of Mary on front grille, beads hanging around, and a white-wrought-iron headboard in the bed of the truck. At Tom Thumb on Hampton in Oak Cliff! Delightful! If I’d only had a camera…

Comment on NPR asks: Is It Legal to Kill Bigfoot in Texas? by Cryptid

I say bigfoot (if it exists) is fair game. I would blow that fucker away and have a new sasquatch rug for my deck and a ashtray of the skull.

Comment on UFOs Over Dallas? by SMiles Lewis

Dallas UFO Appears Same Day as Tornadoes
April 07, 2012 02:30 AM EDT

Dallas UFO activity was filmed in the sky over Dallas, TX Tuesday, within hours of the area being devastated by a series of massive tornadoes.

Considering all the mayhem in North Texas Tuesday, why would anyone be focused on getting footage of UFOs? It seems trivial, compared to all the suffering from that awful day.

Either way, the video was uploaded online and is available here. It’s not clear whether the footage was taken in the morning hours before the twisters, or on Tuesday evening.

Comment on Murmurs of Murmurations … witness reports ‘bird formation’ disappearing in clear sky by Scott Kenneth DuBois

They didn’t “vanish”, they dipped below the overpass you were on. If you pause the vid at 53 seconds you can clearly see the overpass blocking the actual ground behind it.
There are quite a few vids of birds flying around just like this. Unfortunately you don’t have more vid showing the actual ground behind that rail.
Cool vid though.

Hola Jacob.

Yes indeed! I should be posting the audio-podcast (along with the power-point slide and a reference / resource list) very soon.

Also, a friend who videotaped the presentation is possibly editing together a YouTube version of the lecture with the visual elements mixed in.

Details to follow.

If there is any possibility of a podcast or recording, would you please link it here afterward? I would love to listen in. Thanks and good luck!

Comment on #OccupyTexas – Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio and Beyond by Jacob

Thanks for the response! I replied to you in the other spot also.

I think you make a good point, and it’s something I hadn’t considered. I had actually contacted Mr. Hansen about the issue to see where he normally looked to track manifestations of societal change vis a vis the paranormal. He said that he normally looks to interest in the paranormal gauged by membership in ghost- and UFO-hunting organizations and organizations like MUFON. He told me that he had seen a strong correlation between periods of high psi activity and membership in groups like MUFON, even going so far as to plot membership by year and correlate it directly with UFO waves like the one that saw the Mothman in the 1960s. Unfortunately he said he never published the graphs but said he may for an upcoming blog post (http://paranormaltrickster.blogspot.com for those that want the link). I hope he does.

Thanks for the response and the links!

Best,

Jacob

Howdy Jacob!

Wow, wasn’t expecting a “ufological” comment on the Occupy post but what better place for such than here at the wild and weird Texas LOWFI blog!

I am familiar with Hansen’s book and in fact will likley be referencing his work in my upcoming lecture next week:

“Exploring UFOs and Consciousness”
http://www.anomalyarchives.org/public-hall/2011/10/16/exploring-ufos-and-consciousness-with-smiles-lewis/

As for your suggestion … time will tell. However, I’m more inclined to think that such paranormal manifestations may be limited by such an outpouring of physical activism. So much in parapsychology and ufology, to my mind, represent psychic upwellings of repressed emotions and issues, that I would tend to think of the Occupy movement being the biggest cathartic release of such psychic forces to occur in a long long while. On the other hand, as this is an “Occupation” and likely to last a long time … perhaps you are on to something and it could serve as a catalyst for more manifestations.

To that end, you should check out Eric Ouellet’s writings on ParaSociology and ParaAnthropology:
