There’s a gang of YouTube videos
out there “proving” that So-and-So is a shape-changing lizard alien,
based solely on minor video distortions. And (if you didn’t know)
Paul’s bare feet on the cover of Abbey Road is proof that MI5 replaced him with a double when he died in 1966.
Sometimes, the most innocuous event can be touted as evidence of a conspiracy.
And sometimes, the evidence supporting a theory will be so damning
that it will push that theory into the realm of “fact.” Like Snowden’s
revelations, which proved what the Alex Jones crowd had been saying for years.
But somewhere in the middle, are those events which refuse to be
either proof or conjecture. Events that merely dull Occam’s razor,
leaving you with only a slightly scarred hunk of rock-solid “what if..”

The Albuquerque warehouse district is cold as hell at midnight. And
dark. This little spot goes dead around 6 p.m. and refuses to drag its
scraggly ass up until 5. I’ve been sitting in the cold for two hours,
cursing Matt Staggs and chain smoking.
A single tweet from Matt two week ago piqued my interest, beginning a
chain reaction that ends with me on a wild chicken chase to find out
who’s been leaving the corpses of black hens in a dusty family cemetery
for two years.
A story that has been copypastaed ad nauseum around the internet for some reason, the last two weeks:
“KRQE-TV reports (http://goo.gl/XR9FZ8) that
Michael Gabaldon, co-owner of Romero Cemetery, says for two years, dead
chickens and chicken parts have been dropped off overnight.
He says the chickens have been left periodically from every day
to every two weeks. There also are bones or feathers scattered
throughout the cemetery.
Gabaldon says he doesn’t know if the chickens are part of a
religious ceremony, but he called the bizarre practice disgusting and
creepy.
He says he hopes to put up a gate to keep cars out at night.”

My wife had to explain to me that “muggle” is from Harry Potter.
She claims she was reading it for the benefit of a friend. I’m not
convinced. But don’t worry. The divorce papers have been filed.
It came up because my Facebook feed was filled with this video, last month. “Muggle” was being thrown around like whatever they throw around in that Harry Potter game. I know it as internet slang for those nerds who don’t know about magic. Christians and accountants, mostly.
The video is a short report from Colorado’s 9 NEWS, concerning the
finding of an “occult altar” in a deceased man’s backyard shed. Amongst
the paraphernalia was found human bones. Most likely, it was connected
to Palo, a Cuban magical tradition.
