The night the lights went out on the Brooklyn bridge

This is quite a mystery. Somehow yesterday, around 3 o’clock in the morning, American flag were taken down from the Brooklyn Bridge and replaced by two white flags…

New York City police officials stated that security cameras show lights going out, and two white flags replacing American flag in 13 minutes of each other, suggesting that whoever did this had a team associated to perform the stunt..

The topic was spoken about to a national audience last night on the Clyde Lewis radio program.. Some are wondering if this is a political statement, a prank, or something more sinister..

ABC News this morning even suggested the specter of terrorist, hinting that officials are curious if this is some sort of hostile

Regardless of how it was done, the fact was done is somewhat amazing it would’ve had to of been a well thought out plan, deliberated perfection, as to avoid the site of authorities, passersby, and anyone else who stares at the Brooklyn bridge that hour of the morning…

What are the chances …

We often hear about people being hit by lightning twice..
We also heard last week about Kaylene Mann, the woman who lost her brother on Flight 370, also lost her stepdaughter and husband on flight 17..

Yin and yang.. there always seems to be a counter balance on this planet..

For every bit of tragedy that Mann’s family is feeling, there’s a chorus of voices thanking fate .. Dutch cyclist Maarten de Jonge planned on being on both flight 17 and 370.. He changed his plans each time.

Jonge was quoted as saying, “These things don’t happen twice.” but apparently they do. For him, a miraculous stroke of luck two times in one year.. For Mann, a tragic ending to two separate stories..

What are the chance… in a world of 7 million people, two were somehow chosen to be involved directly in two plane crashes in one year.

It’s like some twisted version of FINAL DESTINATION. Sadly it’s too real for Mann.. luckily it’s reality for Jonge..

Cruzing to a bruising: Ted Cruz loses the vampire vote

The acclaimed vampire spectacle on HBO, TRUE BLOOD, got political this weekend when it featured Senator Ted Cruz..

Here is how RAW STORY summed up the plot:

In the episode, characters Eric Northman and Pam De Beaufort dress up in stereotypical Texan Republican trappings to infiltrate a Cruz fundraising event in Dallas. “Oh my God. I’m a Republic*nt,” Pam remarks after seeing herself in the mirror.

Ted Cruz responded to the show on his Facebook page, saying, “Of all the places I never thought to be mentioned, HBO’s True Blood vampire show would have to be near the top of the list. Sunday night, they aired a misogynist and profanity-ridden episode where Texas Republicans are murdered attending a “Ted Cruz fundraiser.” Well, I’m sorry to have lost the vampire vote, but am astonished (and amused) that HBO is suggesting that hard-core leftists are blood-sucking fiends….”

Here is the scene from the show:

If you find your dream house in Pennsylvania, don’t expect to be told of the nightmares

LINK: Home sellers don’t have to tell buyers about murders, other tragedies, Pa. Supreme Court rules in death house case »

“We hold that a murder-suicide does not constitute an actionable material defect,” Justice J. Michael Eakin wrote.

Interesting..

I asked several people today with varied background for opinions on this story. I live in Pennsylvania.. so the ruling has a direct affect..

The reaction seemed to fall within the normal boundaries of religious belief.. Two atheists I knew didn’t care one bit if a murder/etc took place in their abode. I even asked them if a pedophile perpetrated horrible actions in a house, would they still consider buying it? They said sure..

On flipside, three Christians and one Jehovah Witness all had issues with the Supreme Court ruling, stating that they believed in a good and and that houses could have spirits and feelings trapped within them.

My wife and I saw a house several years back.. the real estate agent secretly and silently disclosed to us that a suicide took place within the confines of the property.. even pointing out the section of the basement a hung body was found in. While it was a gesture of “get out now” she loudly commented to us about how beautiful the house was. And it was. We didn’t purchase it for other reasons —the suicide factored in for me.

I think I would do my due diligence regardless of a real estate agent’s words.. The internet, public property searches, and court house papers are all at our fingertips these days…

I laugh when I see the movie THE CONJURING or AMITYVILLE HORROR where people simply fall in ‘love’ with a house and rarely ask anything about it..

Do research.. do your own due diligence. Ask about the material defects.. but also, should you be inclined to think a paranormal realm could exist on the planet earth, investigate it for yourself and learn all you can learn about a property you’ll want to call home.

HORROR REPORT POLL: What is death?

A recent article from Caleb Wilde’s website has me thinking.. What exactly is death. Is it the beginning of the end? The end of the beginning? A simple road block on the passage way to the next realm?

This is one of the most important questions we can ask. And we are surrounded by it.. take a peak at the nightly news.. Chances are you’ll see lifeless corpses resulting from war, storms, or just simple old age. Chances are you’ll hear of fires and car wrecks on your nightly news.. chances are, you, reading this, are suffering the loss of a loved one right now. Maybe even the family pet passed away. And we are all left with the same question: What is death.

So I’d like to know.. from you, what do you think death is?

Click one of the answers below to weigh in…

[sh_poll poll_id=”4419899″]

It’s far to say that the canned answers I picked for this poll don’t encompass all that death could be–science and religion may offer in different notions about what death is and when it even happens. But from my point of view, death is the beginning. Perhaps it’s the beginning of a long process of decomposition of the corpse.. or maybe the traveling soul that leaves a physical presence to walk into the big electric universe.. but beyond that not very astute opinion, I frankly have no clue what death is.

If you don’t follow Caleb Wilde, you should..

 

…but proceed with caution. He’s a funeral director who is very honest, brutally so, about his profession..

I read this article today titled ‘when embalming is beautiful’ ..

It’s not an easy read, but an important one. In essence, Wilde talks about the death process—post death really—and how he hates embalming children. What results is a horrendous but yet beautiful description of a family’s reaction to a three-year-old’s corpse laid to rest..

Again, it’s brutal .. and quite honestly brought my to immediate tears that flowed for several minutes.

But it’s just so honest..

Read on should you choose..

After life communication

There is a really interesting documentary on VIMEO I watched called CALLING EARTH.. it’s a rough cut documentary about after death communication with the living.. And it’s worth a watch.

A few takeaway points that I had after seeing it:

  • It often seems that recordings of the dead appear to be recorded in some way.. For example, this documentary opens up to a woman hearing her dead daughter on a recording disciplining her dog—the girl was dead at the time it was recorded. Could it be that history just plays back over and over again in some way? that we are just … a movie or hologram that exists on a continuous loop?
  • The chilling idea of a dead person calling me and leaving a message on a voice mail is down right creepy. But … often times those who report it are overjoyed by the impact it has.. That ‘one last time’ to hear a voice of a deceased loved one..
  • If the dead are experienced using communication devices, why haven’t they mastered Facebook yet? Think of it: How many times have friends and family died, but their Facebook pages live on.. and in doing so, people continue to grieve, post messages and stories of the person’s life, and say how much they miss them. What if, one day, the dead find a way to communicate back? To “like” a post or even more, to respond?  The future is now.. so why haven’t the dead learned to use this one yet? Maybe the ‘get off my train guy’ from GHOST doesn’t have a computer …

And finally…when do we die anyway? We used to do the ole’ feather trick. Then we moved on to when the heart stopped.. now we are at a point where when the brain stops we believe someone is dead—believe. But with each modern discovery, it seems more and more likely that death will continue to be kicked further down the road..

Most scientists don’t believe in an afterlife—but some are beginning to wonder.. question.. And study.

Old paranormal fields that were confined to embarrassed circles of people hiding their investigations are now beginning to see the light of day, and the analysis of science.

Sometimes EVPs are simply what you think you’re hearing.. you may be so desperate for a message that you hear a muffled sound and suddenly think it’s your loved one saying hi from the netherworld. However, some EVPs are without a doubt filled with clear-cut audio that is simple and unforgivingly real.

Even if it’s not real.. it’s real to the person who heard what they heard…

Give the documentary a whirl during your spare moments in life. It may answer questions, bring closure, but even better: Make you wonder, ponder, think and quake at the prospects that there’s something far greater than an monumental accident leading to the creation of matter and all that matters.
