That’s why I sent the picture in. I may write an entry about it at some point.

ah ok. Though, I have always thought it was interesting that Lam and the “Greys” looked so similar to one another…

Glad you’re enjoying the site. I didn’t choose the Lam picture, I just sent in a load of images and the web designer put it in. I was pleasantly surprised, although I’m still waiting for the banner to be fixed so that it goes all the way across the page like Nick’s.

Unfortunately, I don’t remember anything more about it, I just have a vague memory of hearing about it a while ago as a third-hand account, so it was most likely bogus.

Oh, btw, interesting choice of using a picture of Aleister Crowley’s Lam in your banner…

Yes, Strieber did mention owls as a possible screen memory for encounters. I always suspected that this was where David Lynch picked up on it for “Twin Peaks.”

I have never heard of this case, but there was a hoaxed one from the late 19th century (written in the late 1980s I think) called “An Account Of A Meeting With Denizens Of Another World.” Maybe you could give us a few more clues?

I remember hearing rumors about another case, this one from the 19th century, where a man reported his house being surrounded by similar-looking creatures, this time in a “fairy/Little People” context of a UFO one. Does anyone know anything more or is this just another unsubstantiated rumor?

What does this ubiquitous unnamed millionaire want with OWLS? As you sort of suggest, perhaps there is another agenda here. Also, this reminds me of the line in Twin Peaks: “The Owls Are Not What They Seem.”

If Nickell is a spy, or on the payroll for some reason, he’s a bit funnier but not as tenacious as Phil Klass was, who was accused of working for “the government.” Owls have apparently replaced ball lightning as the go-to explanation of choice for CSICOP.

Giant Owls, Mystery Millionaires & the CIA

I mention that owls are all over the news in three countries. Is it true a millionaire is ready to give you a million dollars for a giant owl? Is there twilight language being broadcast in these news items?

And finally, with a wink, I ask: Is Joe Nickell a spy?
