Aliens
Aliens from Spaceship Earth
The year 2016 would be vastly different and possibly improved if we had all heeded the path outlined for us in 1978 by Donovan.

STAR WARS Recipes
It never really dawned on me that fans would come up with recipes to accompany these movies, but in retrospect, it only makes sense, and the fad appears to go way back, as seen in this 1983 instance below. Will they issue a new recipe for the newest trailer?

“Life-sized” Alien Facehugger & Egg
Too bad this won't be available until April 2016. Imagine the screams of terror, as depicted, when your lucky first-grader opens this under the Xmas tree.

The Astounding She-Monster
Doesn't the narrator at the start of the full film sound like Troy McClure from THE SIMPSONS?

Alien-Inspired Art
I think it makes sense for an artist to have some kind of schtick to differentiate themselves from the crowd. And Lloyd Canning's schtick is that he says his paintings are inspired by images that extraterrestrials project into his brain. According to him, this image projection began after the aliens first abducted him in 2005. The Mirror has more details. Also check out Canning's website.He reminds me of Flora Marian Spore, the 1920s artist who claimed her paintings were inspired by ghosts. (See Paul's post from back in 2012.)

Jump Jump the Christmas Elf
Seriously, Jump Jump looks like a mean, vicious badass to me.
You can listen to Jump Jump's Old Time Radio adventures here.
And if you have a spare $200.00, you can own your own Jump Jump doll.
