Now, just past 30, I still relish the odd, the unexplained and the creepy.
When I can, I watch
The X-Files . . . Profiler
. . .Millenium . . . Forever
Knight . . .
and the reruns of the old programs that my 50+ channels provide.
Granted, I'm softer, kinder and wiser.
I can't watch the evening news most nights
because the cruelties that
normal people visit on other normal people
make my heart ache.
I'd rather contemplate mysteries I can nearly comprehend.
There is, of course, a melancholy aura about many of my interests.
It may be true that ghosts are the trapped and tormented souls of
victims of circumstance.
This saddens me.
It may be true that reports of aquatic monsters and yeti and fae
are sightings of the last of vanishing breeds.
This saddens me.
It may be true that human monsters like Dahmer and Gein are products
of their environments.
This saddens me.
It may also be true, however, that knowledge 
can contribute to the eradication of some of this sadness.
The Web, in three days, has provided me with information on,
and connections to,
that for which I have spent years searching.
In my searches, I do not mean any disrespect to those that have suffered
pain, confusion or terror
at the hands of some of the figures I am pursuing.
I mourn for the victims and, often, the perpetrators
of violent acts.
Still, I will continue to try to gain an understanding
of some of the situations and characters that exist
outside the boundries of our civilized world.
Doing so is my way of whistling a happy tune in the dark.
The dark exists,
in our world
in our minds
in our history . . .
like it or not, it is ours to explore.
This site is far from complete . . . come again another day.
