Mary Poppins. Hide your children
I’ve never seen Mary Poppins in its entirety. Parts of it have always given me the creeps. Perhaps it’s is because of the not so subtle (down right scary) imagery hidden throughout the movie. Don’t be deceived by it’s cute Disney musical facade with the ever so innocent Mary (fresh from singing in the Swiss [...]
What’s really lurking down the plughole
I had to unblock the bathroom sink the other evening… joy. With the help of a crochet hook borrowed from PaisleyJade (yes, they really are good for something), I was able to pull out what I can only describe as a greeny, slimy, smelly, hairy, stringy goop that had to be seen to be believed. [...]
Authentic footage of Bigfoot attack?
A couple of weeks ago Lesmond and I entered a viral video contest promoting PULSE by Jeremy Robinson. Although entertaining, the movie was far too long and I hate to say it… boring. Good news folks. I have re-edited it to a lean 1.15 minutes, and thanks to a blood-nose (don’t ask), it now has [...]
Mair Park Ghost Footage
About this time last year, I wrote of the time when my parents had a close encounter with the urban legend known as ‘The Mair Park Ghost.

My close encounter with a UFO… cult
It was a fateful night in 1997 when the Aetherius Society came to town to promote their religion. For those who don’t know what the Aetherius Society is (I’m guessing about 99.9% of the people reading this post), it is a UFO cult. I was a zealous (and somewhat tactless) Bible College student at the [...]
We see what we want to see
My sons reckoned they saw a UFO today (I was quick to remind my eldest that the last UFO he saw turned out to be a seagull). Like father like son. Ever since I watched ‘Close Encounters Of The Third Kind’ as a kid, I’ve been fascinated by UFO phenomena. As a Christian, I definitely [...]
Great Snakes: the slither continues…
And just when you thought my giant-snake obsession was over! While having some brief down-time and browsing some crypto blogs I came upon the above photo (click on image to enlarge). The caption translated follows (the original photograph has it written on the back): “This is a ‘jiboia’ snake of which only part appears. It [...]
