This morning on my way to tennis I was listening to 107.9, which is a radio station based in Clarksville, Tennessee. (Clarksville is about an hour north of Nashville. Or at least from downtown Nashville. We live south of the city so it’s a smidge over an hour for usContinue Reading

I’m going to try something a bit different this Friday and see how it goes. In addition to doing my normal Follow Friday (a.k.a. #FF) shout outs on Twitter, I’m going to borrow from the Follow Friday List idea I read about on Social Media Commando and saw in actionContinue Reading

Apparently I have ethics on the brain. Yesterday I wrote about LiveParanormal.com’s Town Hall meeting on ethics that’s happening tomorrow. Today I’m going to talk about another side of the ethical coin: preservation. It’s been a couple of weeks now, but two people I greatly admire in the paranormal realm,Continue Reading

The other day a representative of Henry Holt and Co. contacted me about whether I’d be interested in reviewing a copy of The Tale of Halcyon Crane by Wendy Webb. Here was the hook: In this chilling and ghostly tale, Wendy Webb has created a haunting story full of deliciousContinue Reading

I’m usually not one to say “I tried to warn you” or “I told you so.” Mainly because usually I don’t express my theories or predictions publicly. However, at the beginning of April I wrote “April,  Saturn, & Mercury Retrograde: Something Wicked This Way Comes.” It sure provoked a lotContinue Reading

When I wrote about the Nashville flood the other day I also included a few video clips. Most were from YouTube but one was mine I took of the flood waters at our neighborhood Publix supermarket. I had to stop in there again yesterday to pick up a few things.Continue Reading

I was astounded when I watched the TODAY show this morning and instead of seeing stories about the flooding in Tennessee and Kentucky I heard expert after expert talk about the arrest of the suspected terrorist bomber and the Gulf Oil spill. I flipped to the Ealy Show, hoping they’dContinue Reading

I’ve read a lot of books on the paranormal. I started on the Hans Holzer and Kathryn Tucker Wyndham books, went through the separate series by Richard Winer, Dolores Riccio and Michael Norman and graduated to Dennis William Hauck. His “National Directory To Haunted Places” should practically be the BibleContinue Reading
