Hobbit

I swear there is a hobbit sitting at this bar drinking. Seriously, he was like 3 feet tall. Super creepy. No, I was NOT drinking.

I know what is NOT in the air....

I got back from the market 20 minutes ago. Today is January 11. The high today was 25. This is DEFINITELY false advertising.

Now THAT'S Marketing!!

I always notice good marketing and branding when I see it. Likewise, I usually pick up on haphazard schemes to foist unwanted items on customers at ridiculous prices. The display below definitely falls into one of these categories. I saw it in a shop in Roswell, New Mexico. Its useful to note that there aren't any major golf courses in the area.


Because if THESE aliens (???) are golfing, then you might want to golf, too. Somewhere, at some point, and with these plain, white golfballs, packaged in ziplocs.

The Coming Human Aliens Part II: The Message

While we were in Roswell last month, Mike spent some time listening to the presentation of a guy named Don Ray Walton, a self-proclaimed alien/human hybrid who had hooked himself up to a car battery and kept not shocking himself to prove that he is half alien. I have transposed (word for word including random punctuation, capitalization and mispellings) the intro to his second book at the end of this post.

I also found his bio on the Galde Press ("Quality Books that Make a Difference") website:

Don Ray Walton was born in Idaho Falls, Idaho. He was home-schooled until he was 16 because weird things always happened when he was around other children. In 1954, his mother was abducted by aliens and impregnated. Don was born the following year. When he was a child, strange visitors would take him onto spacecraft to examine him and teach him to understand what was happening to him as he grew older. At the age of ten, he learned how to use electricity to jam the aliens’ tracking implants in his head.

Magical, Magical Camera.

Mike's new video camera was delivered today! Very exciting. He immediately started to read the manual. Several pages in, he pointed out the passage below under "Pre-recording Function":


The biggest question we have is:

HOW DOES THE CAMERA KNOW WHEN WE ARE GOING TO PUSH THE RECORD BUTTON?

Its a real Christmas Miracle!!
