Owl Stuff: The Fringe Owl

I should start an "Owl Files," or something...

Today while searching for deals at the local Goodwill I saw a lovely brown square box with the words "Fringe Owl." Thinking it had something to do with the television series Fringe (the best series of its kind, besides X-Files and Torchwood -- UK not US) I picked it up. Inside was the paperweight shown here. Nice little item. Reading the small print on the box I saw that it had nothing to do with Fringe, the ~~Faux~~ Fox Network series; Fringe is just the name of the studio, which is in California. I almost bought it, even though I have no use for a paper weight, but after reading their warning label on how the glass paperweight contains lead, which is a carcinogen. California law, the label informed, mandates warning labels for products containing lead.

Why the name Orange Orb?

I have had many UFO sightings and experiences, which began in childhood. One sighting in particular was dramatic enough -- it was the one that started me on this path -- and was the inspiration for the title of this blog:

In the 1980s I and my husband observed a craft, lit from within. It appeared to follow us for some time; it, in fact, appeared to be waiting for us and responded to my thoughts. It was intelligent; intelligently controlled. Whether that control came from within or without, I don't know. I don't know if the orb itself was sentient (I had a feeling it was, somehow) or the orb was just a tool used by other entities. Possibly those entities were human; that I don't know. Missing time accompanied this sighting, as did dreams that followed that were very scary -- so much so I sought out a therapist to deal with the severe anxiety caused by the dreams. The dreams:

I'm standing in a brilliant beam of white light, so blinding I can almost see through things. I can't move, no matter how hard I try, and I am trying with every single cell, every nerve, all my will, but no use. Above me is something metallic, dome or round shaped, covering much of the sky. I am furious for my husband is up there, and I demand of "them" to tell me where he is, let me see him, and, answers! I want answers! But they don't care, and keep me frozen inside this beam.

I have written about my UFO experiences at length on-line and in print, and have discussed it on various podcasts. Sites like UFO Magazine, UFO Digest, Future Theater's podcast with Bill and Nancy Birnes, and my blog Saucer Sightings, among others, contain more about the "orange orb" sighting.

Despite Imbrogno's "scandal" -- he lied about his credtionals -- his ideas are worth considering. While not new ideas at all, they are still considered fringe by many inside the fringe itself. No, I'm not condoning Imbrogno's lies, I'm s...
