2008 – The Year of the Rat

rat I'm a little late. The "Year of the Rat" started on February 7, 2008 and I'm just now getting around to writing about it. What significance does it have? I was born in 1960; I am a rat and this is my year!

Parallel Worlds: Where is Jack Hunter?

Richard Dean Anderson At one time, recently, I thought I might be crazy. If you read the first article I wrote about Jack Hunter, you could certainly come to that conclusion. I'm not crazy, though, and I can tell you why. Within the last 20 plus days (After September 10th), I have experienced what I would call the strangest communications that I can imagine. The bad part about it is that I can't prove anything happened.

The Lucid Dream

The first lucid dream I mentioned was only the beginning of several related dreams, but they weren't lucid. There were images similar to the first and images of places I don't think I've ever been to.

Hidden Truth and Forbidden Knowledge

Hidden Truth - Forbidden Knowledge While I was scouring the web for new and interesting information, I went back to a site I hadn't been to for at least 2 years. I looked at "Fuelless Flight" and pondered as to why nothing more seems to have come of it. You'd think the aircraft industry would be all over something like this, what with the rising costs of jet fuel along with everything else. Imagine it. An aircraft that uses no fuel at all.

The Truth Is Out There

The Disclosure Project I then decided to look around for topics on alternative energy and found myself, somehow, at "The Disclosure Project". I'm as much a skeptic about UFOs, alien encounters and the like as anyone, yet I felt compelled to download and watch the Windows media file they had available for download.

I sat and watched nearly 2 hours of testimony at a press club conference from 2001, headed by Steven M. Greer, MD, a doctor who left his position at a well-paying hospital job to pursue the truth about extraterrestrials and the worldwide conspiracy to suppress the information from the general public by a "shadow government".

I even took the time to skim the part of Dr. Greer's book available online, "Hidden Truth – Forbidden Knowledge". If there's any truth to the stories, someday we'll be in for a rude awakening.

The Christian Biblical History

In AD 325, the First Council of Nicaea, summoned by Roman Emperor Constantine and held in Nicaea in Bithynia (present-day İznik in Turkey), resulted in the first uniform Christian doctrine called the Nicene Creed. It was there that books included in the modern-day Christian bible were considered and chosen as being of divine origin. I wonder if they knew what they were reading.

There are examples of close encounters by people such as Ezekiel and Elijah and there may be more. The authors described the events and objects as best as they could, using the language of the time and comparing them to things they knew of.

My Conclusions

The reason the truth, if it is indeed the truth, hasn't been disclosed to the public and never will be is because of what would happen. Can you imagine the widespread panic and chaos that would ensue? Spiritual faith, for many people, would be completely shattered. For some, it would be strengthened.

Knowledge can be dangerous as well as enlightening. Perhaps the information and technology of alternative energy sources has to be slowly disseminated in order to prevent (or postpone) the imminent collapse of our civilization. I, personally, do not know what to make of all of what I've read and seen over the years.

We do, indeed, live in interesting times.

Chicken Little (2005)

The "runt" stole the show in Chicken Little. I laughed so hard at some of the routines, I cant believe this didn't get better ratings. I'm not telling any more than "the sky is falling". You have to watch it to enjoy it as much as I did.

Chicken Little stars the voices of Zach Braff, Garry Marshall, Don Knotts, Patrick Stewart, and many others. Here are a couple of teasers/trailers. Have fun!

The Abyss (1989)

After Alien and before Terminator, True Lies and Titanic, James Cameron and directed "The Abyss", an underwater sci-fi/action/adventure. Ed Harris is superb as Virgil "Bud" Brigman, the head of an underwater drilling platform. If you've never seen this, I don't want to give it away. It has a disaster, suspense and aliens as part of the film. What more could a nerd like me want out of a movie?

"The Abyss" stars Ed Harris, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Michael Biehn and a bunch of other people I never heard of. Here's a trailer:
