GHOST, UFO’S AND BOOGYMEN
GHOST, UFO’S AND BOOGYMEN
I don’t sit in judgment of anyone unless my tax’s pay their salary…..but that said, I do want to address a large if not convoluted group of folks in this world that seem to share a common thread of belief; That there are terrestrial aliens, unimaginable monsters and a plethora of ghost, spirits, aberration’s and ghouls.
This world is already infested with more bizarre, unexplainable and outlandish manifestations than the Discovery Channel could ever document. So the question is asked; “Why look for something that’s not there?” We have more than enough weirdness around us that is really here! Take as examples the Loch Ness Monster, giant boat sinking squids and Big Foot. People just love to wonder and fantasize I guess. If Big Foot really existed, every Billy Bob and Uncle Skeeter would be up in the hills with their dogs this very minute. There are, however, “Big Foot” camping grounds and souvenir shops by the score and more logo T-shirts than Nike. I think the whole concept of Big Foot is, I guess, just good for business.
UFOs and aliens have had thousands of pictures and videos taken of their hovering saucers and the “area 51″ incident proved the government was in cahoots to keep it all a secret from the commies. Think! The government can’t keep track of Mexican aliens much less ones from Mars. Toss a Sara Lee pie pan in the air and take a few pics then sell them to the National Inquirer…..I guess it’s all just good for business.
Ghosts, departed Uncle Louie, General Grant, Chief Thumpin Beaver and the little girl down the street who was raised in her basement. Spirits that patrol cemeteries, ghouls crawling out of musty graves and any day now I’m expecting to hear about Swine Flu zombies! Then there’s vampires and werewolves. I thought lawyers were bad enough, but books, comics, video games and hundreds of movies have found them……I guess it’s just good for business.
Your common every day folk that participate in the community, have picnics, work hard, raise families and vote…..well, there’s no profit to be made from that….unless the family’s dysfunctional, the parents are transsexuals or the kids are all mutant pigmies….then I smell a ‘reality show!’ It seems our curiosity is what’s really good for business, not our common sense.

Picture number 1. Is it werid I find it slightly alluring? lol
Picture number 2. Looks like an alien lord vuldamore.
and I swear my life should be a reality show. I am military, adhd, and random as hell. lol was working at the base and a exotic club for a while at the same time. those were interesting times. Now im mainly at my base temp full time. but my life is still chalk full of drama.
i guess we like to be frightened- to feel like we have no control and it’s ok. (as opposed to no control and it’s not ok)
Arg… scary monsters!
Even after inhabiting this planet as long as we have, we still don’t understand even a fraction of how it works. We “discover” new species of animals we never knew existed every year. We don’t understand even our own planet, to assume we understand the entire universe is absurd.
What!?! No yetti!?! Well, now I guess I’ll have to spend my time doing something more meaningful………..like taking care of my kids and hubby!
Some people are just thrill seekers, I suppose.
I think we’ll just have to agree to disagree on several of your points, but I’m new, so I’ll research your page for a while. Thanks for the invite.
I agree. I don’t really believe in ghosts, etc. Although “aliens” probably exist, not anywhere near Earth though…
RYC: I bet I could make a vegetarian gravy better than your brown gravy!!
Hi Charlie—are the same Charlie that I knew who wrote about the 7 deadly sins?
I agree with your logic here. I should have told people my late MIL was a stranded criminal alien banished to earth for punishment. I would have made lots of money.
