• British primatologist and scientist Jane Goodall blamed human behavior for the coronavirus pandemic, calling it "our disregard for nature," according to Agence France-Presse. "Because as we destroy, let's say the forest, the different species of animals in the forest are forced into a proximity and therefore diseases are being passed from one animal to another, and that second animal is then most likely to infect humans as it is forced into closer contact with humans," she said.

Rediscovering the Kitchen? Don't know about you but lockdown has definitely changed our menu. Experimenting with rice and beans. Not so bad. Lots of potatoes, onions and soup.

Food for thought: We are all doing our best to adjust to a new normal, knowing the old normal might not be an option going forward.

via John E. L. Tenney on Twitter

Yet, our unknown/unexplained remains the same unknown/unexplained ever-constant in a world of chaos.Maybe it wasn't clear enough just how normal the unknown/unexplained is. 

Nothing here is what it seems.

Posting the podcast home quarantine version (longer interviews). 

Thank you for listening!

Before Covid-19 hijacked the headlines it was Area 51, UFOs, Deep Prasad with George Knapp, Mercury Retrograde, Year of the Rat, and so on ....

Reflecting a bit -- this post was typical. Since then, the world has changed in a profound way. Somehow, just a few weeks ago, things seemed a lot more innocent and carefree. Then again, my pocket of the universe has always deviated from high drama ... until recently, when it became unavoidable. 

There is one constant - evidenced in these stories and those I continue to reference - a reminder that no matter what crisis steals center stage - the behind the scenes weirdness - is still going on in the wings.

In hindsight, note the Year of the Rat travel forecast. That happy pup at Starbucks drive up window ... not happening now. And talking about school ... many began shutting down in mid March.

Even the T. McKenna quote seems a bit prescient.

"Some kind of dialog is now going on between individual human beings and the sum total of human knowledge and nothing can stop it". - Terence McKenna, Transparency: Seeing Through to Our Expanded Human Capacity, Penney Peirce


OddsnEnds - 

• Finding UFO - has revived interest in Area 51 with a new video highlighting Secret Area 51 tunnels and including a timeline of landscape changes from the 90s to the present. Fascinating.  Mysterious Universe. Follow Finding UFO on Twitter.
• Real and unreal - Ghost in School. Security camera might have clues. Mysterious Universe.
• Ducks vs. Locusts sounded like a solid plan: The Independent. Source video is awesome: Duck army tweet. However, one expert nixed the Duck army. “Ducks rely on water, but in Pakistan’s desert areas, the temperature is very high,” Zhang said. Zhang, part of a delegation of Chinese experts sent to help the south Asian country combat the locusts, advised the use of chemical or biological pesticides instead.": The Guardian
• Hemp crop burned. Kentucky farm forced to torch 600 lbs. of the crop when it tested over the limit for THC. Fox News.
• Emotion and Animals. Suicide. Psychology Today. 2018 Do they know they are going to die? Psychology Today. 2018  (Yes.) I have been fortunate to see some of my pets changing their behavior prior to passing - spending moments together, saying goodbye to their animal friends.
• Pup cup enthusiasm overload at Starbucks drive thru. Caught on cell. The Dodo.
• Reporter ...oops with selfie filters. Hilarity ensues. AOL.
• Black People, White People, ET People. Race and the UFO. David Halperin says the chapter he devoted to African Americans and UFOs was omitted. So he posted it on his blog: Chapter intro: “In a society split by race, is there a distinctively black American UFO experience? I think the answer is yes, and I think the abduction paradox is one facet of this mostly unrecognized and unexplored issue. That’s what this chapter is about.” [Preview his book: Intimate Alien: The Hidden Story of the UFO.] The treasure in his omitted material is reference to a book written by twins who share a remarkable story of ET contact. From the Motherland to the Mothership. (On my reading list.) 
• Still interested? Jimi Hendrix wrote about his ET/UFO experiences. Mysterious Universe. Curious. Read Starchild. Muhammad Ali believed that Aliens were watching him. Mysterious Universe.

Thank you, George Knapp. Interview with Physicist Deep Prasad about the mind shift accompanying his ET/UFO encounter.

Like nothing he had ever imagined. He found himself in stream of consciousness saying all sorts of things along the line of what I am paraphrasing as: "OMG -- they're real."



More where that came from. Additional interview segments on Mysterywire.
My earlier blog post referenced Deep Prasad's ET Contact confession. TalkingtoNightlights.

[Yes, in my own experience, they can influence us in such a way it is difficult (if not impossible) from this state of awareness to determine what 'reality' is engaged. The mist/haze/fog in-between of physical and non-physical suggests connection at a deeper level of consciousness than humans are currently accessing.] 


Wendy's Coffeehouse Schedule -  

Update 3/1 - UFOs, ETs, Ghosts, Bigfoot, Psychedelics for Science and a quick review of upcoming local/regional Paranormal events.

As KCMO AM 710 and the entire Cumulus Media group in Kansas City is relocating, it became the perfect time to test the Mercury Retrograde effect. Result: See previously noted show update.

Details: Pre-arranged alternate recording studio to account for producer training time in new building. Day of show - alternate recording studio phone disconnected. Relocated to Air studio - phone worked just fine for show vacating said studio. Phone dead and said to have been temperamental that week. Corroborating witnesses comment to me: "Mercury Retrograde, right Wendy?" So it would seem. And highly inconvenient. ;)

Don't mess with Mercury Retrograde: Astrology Zone.
Potential pitfalls: Turbulence and Disruption.
Suggestions of what not do do:
"Don't make any important moves when Mercury is retrograde." Already in progress. Can't be helped.
"Avoid plastic surgery." Done!
The upside: The new studios are absolutely fantastic.
More Horoscope info:Astrology Zone


Mercury Retrograde is a blip compared to the ominous Year of the Rat travel forecast. CNN.

So Man-fung Peter, Geomancy Consultant and Feng Shui Master: "Feng shui can be used to decode the energy of a place but it shouldn't dictate where travelers should or shouldn't go, he says. "According to feng shui readings, destinations east of China, such as Taiwan, central Japan and the west coast of the United States, are overshadowed by a major star of illness this coming year. It means it is more prone to man-made and natural disasters."
