Above Us Only Sky: John Lennon and the Homeless Guy Hoax - “I don’t believe in Beatles. I just believe in me. Yoko and me. The dream is over.” . John Lennon     THE WIFE was away in California visiting her sister and the thought occurred to me to give Netflix the old college try—again. You probably needn’t pull out your deerstalker cap to deduce that […]

Superman’s Curse: The George Reeves Murder-Suicide Was a Hoax -   A SHOT rang out. In the home of actor George Reeves, people frantically handed somebody else their martini glass and then tried to wake the naked couple in bed, though the police wouldn’t be called for nearly an hour. Earlier that evening, Reeves and his fiancée had gotten into an argument at a restaurant […]

Hidden Recipes: The Royal Genealogy of Julia Child -   AT SOME point into my investigation of globe Earth, I happened upon a little-known fact. Julia Child was in the OSS.

The Black Dahlia Hoax: Brought To You By a Hollywood Studio - Part 2 Brought To You By a Hollywood Studio     OFFICIAL biographies place Elizabeth Short’s birthplace in Boston. Wrong. I’ll give you a hint as to her true identity. The real Black Dahlia’s nativity scene was more than likely Alexandria. Intel is simply doing all they can to pass notes in class without giving […]

The Black Dahlia Hoax: The Girl Was a Mannequin - Part 1 The Girl Was a Mannequin   A YEAR or so ago I wrote about The Black Dahlia as something that legitimately happened in history. My conclusion at the time was that Hollywood and the Los Angeles Police Department were in on it. You will have to accept my apologies. Every so often I […]

Spahn Ranch: Remember When Charles Manson Lived On a Movie Set? - “Total paranoia is just total awareness.” . Charles Manson   WHEN THE FAMILY said, let’s go Creepy Crawling, they were referring to a game which involved sneaking into people’s homes at night and rearranging their furniture while they slept. Sure, the Manson’s reportedly committed the deed, but that’s just Intel’s way of telling us that […]

10050 Cielo Drive: The House that Sharon Tate Was Murdered In Was a Movie Set -   MANY ATTRIBUTE the creation of the miniskirt and hotpants to London-based mod fashion designer Mary Quant. The point I am trying to make here is that Sharon Tate had the legs that both pieces of fabric were imagined for. In 1969, at 26 years of age, the Colonel’s daughter was up to $125,000 per […]

Roman Polanski Never Received Directing Credit for the Manson Murders -   A FILM STUDIO and a director were needed for the Apollo 11 moon landing. Langley found them in Walt Disney and Stanley Kubrick and three actors named Michael Collins, Neil Armstrong, and Buzz Aldrin. It was 1969. Nixon had only recently become president.
