Ray's X-Blog

By Ray X Sometimes my creative genius surprises me. I'm all set to work on a screenplay for the ultimate SF horror movie. Plot:  An international athletic competition is being held in a major South American city.  (For legal reasons this competition isn't the 2016 Summer Olympics and the city isn't Rio, Brazil.)  The city abuts a large body of water that some call Blood Bay.  This bay has been used for countless years as a sewer, the locals dumping in all sort of environmental nasties – garbage, chemicals, sewage, etc. The South American host city assures the international athletic committee that the bay will be cleaned up before the games begin, especially those occurring in the water. So what if some human body parts wash up on the beach area set aside for the volleyball games.  Just a fluke.  Anyway the bay will be in good shape.  Trust us. But when the games start the pollution reduction is only partially completed. The internatio...

Ugh! Try some Bylcreem.  A Little Dab'll Do Ya! There, that's a lot better. Brylcreem: #1 choice for men of action.

There's a plethora of videos over at YouTube purportedly exposing the reptilian shape-shifter conspiracy. They live among us.  Cruel treacherous alien humanoids who appear to be one of us until their disguise slips, their true reptilian form briefly revealed. Of course a few of these must be put-ons, hoaxes.  But after researching conspiracy theorists of the wacko kind one is amazed what others actually believe despite the illogic and blind faith. For eXample a video entitled “Reptilian Hybrid Gets Mad On Dating Show & Shapeshifts - ALIEN SHAPESHIFTING” (see image above.)  The woman has an unusual quirk: she can  close each of her eyelids independently like a lizard.  Weird but probably a rare genetic trait, not proof of monsters hiding among us. In another video a CNN reporter in slow motion shrugs her shoulders, briefly expands her neck, and sticks her tongue out.  More frog-like (amphibian) than reptile to this viewer. And racism plays ...

Bill Burns: Who's he? Here I am getting my zine published on his site and I know very little about the guy.  I've never been deep into SF fandom but through his site, eFanzines.com, I'm meeting new people outside of my usual readership of ufologists, conspiracy theorists, and supernatural investigators. In the old days I would have to conduct an interview via telephone.  ThanX to  email I learned about Bill and the history of eFanzines, getting the story in his own words without the labor of writing transcripts.  (I try to be a stickler about direct quotes.) The impetus for eFanzines dates back to November 2000,  the early days of the internet.  The time when dinosaurs and dial-up roamed across the earth.  Downloads would lumber, taking seemingly forever to complete.  Email size restrictions forced a sender to divide a large file into separate emails.   Most fanzine publishers didn't have their own personal web space.  Cloud...
