    Yeah, well, anything's possible in Venice Beach. Coulda been a missile-target test from Vandenberg airbase.

    Pretty soon here, I hope to see Steve Bannon sucking his own cock. I'm really not sure why he's so into chickens, but, from what I understand, this is his fall back career.

    The very night my son was born in Sept 1989 in Aberdeen, was the most fantastic display of Aurora Borealis I've ever seen. That seemed very weird and wonderful at the time.

    You really do have a hard-on for Bannonesque autofelatio don't you.

    Not sure if mammatus cloud is common in your parts but it's rare stuff and has an other-worldly weirdness about it, particularly in evening light. Take a look at the images.
    Then enlighten us all with the weirdest thing you've ever seen!

    Perhaps I don't live the exciting life that you do.

    What's the weirdest thing you've seen then?

    I think Lemondrop is just in a bad mood with me for not finding his posts in the clans forum amusing.

    In early 1974 I was at a coffeehouse with my friend Kenny. Kenny was a practitioner of the occult and an ex-Satanist who openly discussed his experiences with most anyone who would listen. He was telling me of his "summoning entities" when from the next table a man stood up, glared at him and loudly said "You're full of sh#t". Kenny stood up and stated that he could indeed do as he had said and told the man to just name a place and time and he would do that. The man offered his apartment and now as the time. Kenny, myself, the man and 2 others whom I knew went off to the apartment. At the apartment Kenny struck a meditative pose and after several minutes a greenish, grayish, bluish colored figure of an older man came thru the wall and walked towards me. When it got close to me I freaked out and jumped up and thru it. In a few seconds Kenny was screaming at me that I could have been hurt and at the same time the man whose apartment we were at was screaming at Kenny that this was some kind of a trick.

    Are you sure it was a 'coffee'house you were at?

    They also served tea. It was quite an interesting place ( In the French Quarter).

    That is pretty weird. I used to have a dog that would scare himself when he'd fart.

    It was not made of metal, that much was clear since it was being hauled by some kind of cessna 172 kind of thing although it was clearly putting out close to 100% power. Very odd. I am very good mechanically, that is how I make my living, figuring things out and I could not make heads or tails of just what it was, could have been a half helium filled parade toy for all knew.

    But Venice Beach IS a human zoo no doubt about it, that's what I loved about the place. Wife was 4th gen Venesian🙂
