How Aleister Crowley introduced the iconic gray alien
It is common within UFO and abduction narratives to find references to Whitley Strieber's groundbreaking and now classic book, Communion. Although there were several abduction oriented books before its publication, and many varying depictions of the gray alien, for whatever reason, that particular book and its cover image seemed to finally cement the UFO/abduction phenomenon and the image of the alien into our consciousness...
UFO sightings put Gulf Breeze on the extraterrestrial map

Heads I win, tails you lose
Michael Prescott: My last post noted that the odd fact that, one day after a well-publicized prayer vigil in Georgia, a heavy rainstorm moved through the drought-ravaged state. I was thinking more a little more about this, wondering why the issue stuck in my craw a little bit. After all,I don't much care about praying for rain.
