He's always been dismissive of my Fortean interests, yet it was in his library when I first came in contact with books like 'Morning of the Magicians' by Pauwels & Bergier, and 'Beasts, Men & Gods' by Ossendowsky. So what's up with that?<br /><br />I know I should try to find a way to talk to him about this, but frankly it'd be easier to communicate with an alien :-/Red Pill Junkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14738203580562140501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3011648106646252813.post-21640418272327412082012-05-30T15:56:31.508-07:002012-05-30T15:56:31.508-07:00Hey RPJ:

Was there a spooky-looking bookstore in your neighborhood owned by an elderly gentleman with a mischievous smirk or what?<br /><br />PS: You should take a look at this:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.prufon-news.com/2012/01/ufo-encounter-of-mexican-pilot-carlos.html" rel="nofollow">Mexican pilot Carlos de los Santos escorted by three UFOs:</a><br /><br />"When Carlos stopped, the other cars stopped also. Just when Carlos was about to exit his vehicle, four big burly men with broad shoulders jumped out. <br /><br /><br />One of them put his hands on the door of Carlos’ car, to make sure he doesn’t come out. He spoke quickly, in a strange "mechanical" Spanish: <br /><br />"Look, kid, if you value your life and that of your family, do not talk anymore of what you saw".<br /><br />Carlos, too stunned to reply, watched the four men, who looked like Scandinavians with extraordinary white skins and black suits, returning to their cars and driving away. Carlos turned around and went home."Red Pill Junkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14738203580562140501noreply@blogger.com
