First a little background info.

Alopecia Areata Totalis: You can look it up for the real definition, but basically it's a disease that results in hair loss. I've had it for as long as I can remember, actually it runs in my family. I also happen to have been born ear lobeless or with fused ears (which also runs in my family) and seem to have a touch of esp. This combination along with my name Aileen, has fueled rumors of me being an alien since about the time I started kindergarten. Ultimately that's up to you to decide. As for the shades, that's another story.

So Welcome Earthling

Most people think I'm weird, some think I'm cool. I think people are funny, weather they do or not. Do you believe in those little gray aliens? Just imagine what they must think of you. Here's a glimpse of what probably happens during an alien abduction…

Welcome to an alien blog

Hi it's Aileen, I can't believe it's almost February. My mom just told me that she hasn't touched this blog in a while and she wasn't kidding. We had a big New Years Eve party (Me-Bugsy-Suzy) and having a big Super Bowl party on Sunday, Go Giants!
I have a cool UFO story to go with this really amazing picture I too about a week ago. We've been having some really amazingly warm weather lately and one of my friends said she was going sun bathing on a deserted beach, it was nearly 70°. My cousin Jett likes my crazy friend Jill and has been wanting to meet her, but she has a boyfriend, anyway he heard about the beach and told me to take my camera down there and look out to the east and above her. It was really cool, this ball of light appeared, it looked like a cloud and changed colors like he said to get my attention. Then a beam of light came down like a spotlight on Jill who was lying on her side reading. Before she knew what was happening she disappeared. It happened so fast and I got lucky with this photo. Within seconds she was back on her towel in the same position as if nothing had happened. Later he told me that he actually had her up there talking with him for about an hour and that she shouldn't remember any of it, not that anything bad happened, but he can't wait until they meet again soon for real. I also asked him about the UFO thing and he said that the whole trick of the thing has something to do with harnessing the speed of light.

It's a whole nother world when this BS Advertising sends me out to their carting company client in Brooklyn. They cleared a desk for me and since I'm going there on a more regular basis they even kid around about getting me business cards, my title… "The girl who works here" since the place is full of guys. Oh yeah, except for Wednesday afternoons when they call in the massage girls, to get them through the rest of the week. These guys are nice enough to me but they're arrogant Italians, they act like they own the world. I could just imagine what It must've been like in Ancient Rome. I would love to see one of those Ancient Roman movies with actors like John Travolta, Paul Sorvino and Joe Pesci starring in it and talking "Brooklynese", instead of those British accents. I'd be a beautiful ding. I sometimes get the feeling I'm the artist for the mob. I like to imagine the boss, (who has an old black and white photo of a garbage truck and it's crew posing with it on the wall behind him) as an ancient Roman, he'd probably have something like this on the wall behind him.

Another movie I'd like to see would be a remake of Superman starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Only instead of landing in Smallville as a baby he lands in Austria around 1918.

It's getting near that time of the year again, Halloween! So I dusted off my Ouija board, lit some candles, got out my brushes, some watercolor paper and conjured up this. Recognize her, this was a tough little wicked witch of the southwest named Bonnie Parker, she traded in her broomstick for a Ford V-8, Clyde Barrow replaced the munchkins and the pumpkins were usually used for target practice. Bonnie & Clyde weren't melted or burned, but blown away in May of 1934. I imagine that if they sent out Halloween cards they would probably look alot like this.

So I've been busy working again, since I'm always doing graphics for other people I just had to take some time to do one for myself. BS Advertising is still keeping me busy, I have kind of become the art director/account executive for that carting company I mentioned earlier. More on that coming soon. Happy Halloween everyone!

Aileen and I finally made it to the beach! All of a sudden it was Labor Day Weekend, school starts, the cool weather moves in and it gets dark early. I took a little portable watercolor kit with me and did some plein air quickies, you just have to get used to people looking over your shoulder every now and then. We went camping too, it was fun walking out on the beach at night. The moon rose late, about 9:30 every night and when we ran out of firewood we took midnight swims in the moonlight. Sunday night we were visited by some strange lights that skimmed off the water just like someone skipping stones. There were three of them, they appeared from around one end of the bay, skipped about a dozen times and disappeared in the water. This was in the Long Island Sound, southeast of Shelter Island. The next day we heard that there were plenty of these crazy celebrity parties going. Actually there was this "White Party" hosted by Sean "Diddy" Combs right nearby. I'm sure that if anyone saw what we saw it would be attributed to his party, but we know better.

Guess where we just got back from. I happened to luck-out by scoring tickets for Elvis: The 30th Anniversary Concert! Aileen and I jumped in the car and took a trip down to Memphis. We spent the next week down there and just got back tonight. It's late, I'm wired and tired but I just had to get some of this stuff out of my system. I was surrounded by "Elvi", Elvis impersonators were everywhere. At first your a little afraid of them, they could be a little overwhelming, like having a fear of clowns, but they grow on you as you can see. Being into astronomy, the real highlight of the trip was when we went with a group of Elvi on a trip to Lookout Mountain one night and saw the ELVIS Constellation, it's a very rare astronomical occurance. You'll need a very clear night, and a telescope or hi-powered binoculars on a tripod (see the banner above). So no stories about Elvis being abducted by aliens tonight, it's time for bed.

Summer is in full swing, it's mid August already and starting to get darker earlier. We invested in an above ground pool this year which I like using late nights when all is quiet. There really is quite a bit going on up there in the night sky. The picture above is pretty much the view I get when all the lights in the house are off, I grab one or two of those flexible noodle things and float around looking up at the sky. Aside from the stars, planets and occasional meteors are numerous luminous objects that seem to come and go with the blink of an eye. Closer to the ground are the beetles, mosquitoes, fireflies and bats, any sounds are drowned out by the ambience of about a million insects all chirping away. One of these mornings I'm going to wake up floating around out there.

So what else is new, Aileen and I went to the beach last night to catch part one of the Perseids meteor shower, that was nice. We were thinking of going to Roswell, NM for the 60th anniversary of the UFO incident. They had a big festival going on out there but we decided it would probably be too commercial. From all I read about it, it was. You can learn more about aliens and UFO's by checking back here from time to time. I still have to make it to the beach during the day in the next few weeks. Well it's time for the pool, bed and work tomorrow morning. Actually I think it's a very clear night tonight, it should be great for part two of the Perseids meteors.

It's been a while since I've had the time to get back to this. I've been busy, too busy at times, just trying to make ends meet. It seems the more you make, the more you need. I need some time off, this time of year you see people taking Sunday drives in classic cars, or groups of friends taking their "hogs" on road trips, I just don't have time for that sort of thing now. But the little cartoon above was inspired by these feelings.

I've been doing lots of freelancing lately, even started getting work from this ad agency "Braggadozer & Slushamuny" (BSAdvtg) they mainly handle municipal accounts. One client in particular is a carting company that I do ads for, you wouldn't believe the amount of copy editing I have to do for "dem guys".

I've also been doing lots of caricatures both live and studio. During one about a month ago everyone was surprised by a surprise guest. Hillary Clinton happened to show up, I even appeared in a photo with her. She came over near me,I guess she thought I was part of her secret service crew, probably because of the shades or because I was close to the flag. Actually I seemed to be leaning towards Hillary in the upcoming election. This country could use a change, it wouldn't be the end of the world to have a woman president, other countries have. Doesn't James Bond even have a woman boss these days?

You’ve probably heard about John Lennon’s ufo sighting back in 1974. Well here’s an alien view, or “bird’s eye view” of what happened that day (evening). My mom’s cousin Tracy, better known as “Spacey Tracy” was always a big Beatles fan, but she never got to see them live since her family was always “traveling”.

Late one afternoon she and my mom “borrowed” her dads "UFO" and buzzed New York City. They finally found the Dakota building off Central Park and eventually got lucky. They happened to catch John Lennon out on a rooftop balcony on the upper east side!

At first he was alone, and “naked”, what a sight, him jumping around all excited like one of his crazed fans. Then a girl, (who they later found out was his assistant, May Pang - this was during his
“lost weekend” period) joined him on the balcony, at the time they thought this was Yoko and that she really looked different in person.

They took some photos which Tracy probably still has hidden somewhere in her apartment.(She used to hide them under her bed where my mom and her used to sneak a look at them.) You can probably imagine why. They left and came back a little later, hoping to get more pictures after they gave him some time to put some clothes on. But they were still out there, only with a telescope and cameras, but still no clothes, so they left.

He came so close to having an alien encounter, they actually considered “beaming him up” or abducting him for a while, but I think they were more shocked then he was. My mom did the above caricature from what she remembers of that day. They made a big impression on him too I guess. His Walls and Bridges album has "On August 23 1974, I saw a UFO J.L." printed on the back. He also wrote; "There's UFO's over New York and I ain't too surprised." This was in his song "Nobody Told Me" probably written long before it was released on his Milk and Honey album, two years after his death.

If John was alive today my mom feels that he and Yoko would probably be involved in NYC politics.

Hey, it's Aileen, my mom's been keeping me up to date on her friend with the Goji juice, seems she's really getting into it. Her daughter-in-law dragged to a meeting, they sat in the back of the room and the speaker introduced her as a new member. She had to get up and say a little something much to her embarrassment. She heard people giving testimonials one guy mentioned that he used to take 62 pills a day, now he's down to 3 with the juice. She says it seems to be working wonders for her arthritis, bone density and good cholesterol. She even did a little experiment. She stopped drinking it one Friday morning (she usually has some in the morning and at night) as Saturday wore on she felt all pains and aches, so she started it again Saturday night, by Monday morning she felt great. Her doctors are interested and are checking into it, thinking it might help some other patients.

At school we did a project about our heritage. The day before I did mine one of the guys told about how his great-grandfather came to America from Denmark in the late 1800's and had photos of him and his careers throughout the years. He started out as a blacksmith, was in the Spanish-American war, moved onto cars and airplanes. He has photos of him shoeing horses, on an automobile assembly line and in a little shack that said manager on the Roosevelt field airfield dated 1927 (when Lindbergh took off). He also told us the he always heard that his great-great grandfather has a Viking ship in his garage.

That's funny because I remember hearing from the time I was little that my great-grandpa was a pilot and had a spaceship in his hanger. We actually have a weird old yellowing grainy photo of an old man with something that looks alot like a UFO behind him, see for yourself.

Hi, Roz here, I have an interesting story to tell, actually this story gives new meaning to the term "Crop Circles". I've been observing my boss at an ad agency I freelance for. She's been having problems with her knees since at least last spring and starting to think of having knee replacement. Her knees have been getting worse and her doctor recommended physical therapy as a first step. She's been reluctantly walking around the office slowly with a cane since about mid November while going to physical therapy at least twice a week. Earlier this month she started walking without the cane and little by little walking faster, everyone there has been commenting upon her great progress. Early last week she stopped by my office and confided in me about a possible reason for her miraculous recovery.

Now keep in mind she is very skeptical about all this, she's not into health food or holistic or alternative medicine. She's a senior, a grandmother, takes multiple medications for the usual ailments that come with age and is ready to retire in a few years. She told me she started drinking something called "Goji" juice for a little over a week and thinks it might have something to do with her recovery. The physical therapist was amazed at the range of motion her knees had during her most recent visit. Her daughter-in-law who is involved with selling products through these multi-level (pyramid) marketing programs kept bugging her about trying this juice. Finally, more to pacify her daughter-in-law and prove her wrong, she decided to try it. "Goji juice", is made from the berries of the Goji plant. These grow native in a remote section of the world, the Himalayas. They are rich in vitamins and have healing powers unlike any single medication your doctor can subscribe. If you've never heard of Goji juice, go look it up.

Goji is not of this world, the Earth was actually seeded with these by aliens centuries ago, they look kind of like grape tomato's. Aliens needed a fresh food supply here on Earth, a necessary part of space travel. Goji is the kind of thing that you would think would be more popular, that you would either need a prescription for or find in the supermarket like orange or tomato juice. No Goji juice was never meant to hit the mainstream. It actually funds aliens and is sold only in these multi-level marketing programs and health food stores. Think "pyramids" or better yet "circles" (as they like to call them, literally a crop circle) picture a spiraling circle with aliens at the center. I'll keep you informed as her story progresses.

Happy New Year!
(Roz here) It took me a few days to recover after all the parties, we had some distant relatives literally drop in on us. Here's a photo of Uncle Martin and family. They like eating fish on New Years Eve, but they have to catch it first, the hard way. Those Pisces, bet you can tell where we spent most of the night, luckily it's been warm. That guy on the right just happened to show up, he was so drunk he didn't seem to notice anything fishy. Well I guess that's the way most of these alien rumors start "Hey guys, I was fishing with aliens last night."

I have so many resolutions and ideas for this web site, (a few new games, cartoons, stuff to sell) it's hard to find the time though. If anyone out there wants to, please drop us a line :)

Let us know if you like this site so far and about any ufo or paranormal stories or photos you might want to share.

I found some of my mom's old artwork in a closet and just had to show this one. There were some other interesting pieces of art in there that if I
posted up here she would probably kill me. Take a look at this, she painted this in the early 1980's when we were still in the "Cold War" with Russia. It was when Reagan and Brezhnev were spending lots of time and money developing "Star Wars" missile defenses. People credit President Reagan with spending the Russians out of business. The interesting thing about this illustration is that the faces could change to President Bush and someone else but a nuclear bomb going off is probably even more of a threat today than back then.

Earth's Moon, since the Apollo missions astronauts have noticed an uncommon feature on its dark side. It's crescent shaped and not pock-marked by crater holes. So the thinking is that it's recently formed, possibly by gasses escaping from the moons interior. This striking feature has led to the theory that the moon burps! It may not be just a hunk of dead rock, it may actually have something active going on inside. But seriously, escaping gasses, crescent shaped, dark side and to call it a lunar burp?

So hi, I can't believe how time flies and how easy it is to get lost in it. So Pluto is a dwarf, that's good, Dopey needs a buddy. It's been almost a month since the space shuttle Atlantis astronauts were seeing mysterious objects floating by, someone really should bring a vacuum up there. And it's just over a month since the original Star Trek series first aired on tv, 40 years ago. Mr. Spock was my mom's favorite back in those days. Actually even today Leonard Nimoy still has that rock star popularity like Elvis has on Earth. Roz, my mom, did this watercolor Halloween caricature illustration of Mr. Spock meeting Jack O'Lantern. She's a good cartoonist and caricaturist, I'm the webmaster in my spare time.
