Happy St. Patrick's Day

.



"If you want to know what God thinks about money, just look at the people He gives it to."
                                  (Old Irish saying)


It is that time of year again, St. Patrick's Day, America's most celebrated non-holiday of the year when all 310 million of us can be Irish for the day.  I am a die hard St. Patrick's Day parade junkie having attended parades in New York City, Chicago, and yes, even travelling to Ireland for the Dublin parade.


I find parades much safer than those times I was taking bus tours of Irish bars when I noticed in the packed bar standing next to me was a stark naked Irish man in boots only.  When I looked around no one else seemed to notice anything wrong so I just ignored the lack of clothes and grabbed my green beer.


Something odd always seemed to happen on St. Pats no matter where I might be like in Omaha, Tucson, Washington, D.C., Boston, Philly, LA  or where ever I might have landed.  It was always great to see the cultural barriers and differences dissolve for a day.




Even the Irish Queen of motor racing, Danica Patrick, is proud to show her heritage with her new shamrock paint job on her NASCAR hot rod.

Whether you’re Irish or a leprechaun wanna-be… everyone loves a good St. Patrick’s Day Parade! You may have heard the expression “Everyone wants to be Irish on St. Patrick’s Day.” Though St. Patrick’s Day is the national holiday of Ireland, it is celebrated world wide… from North America to Argentina, Germany to Montserrat, Mexico to Russia. Originally a religious celebration in observance of the death of Saint Patrick (circa 385 – 461), one of the Irish patron saints, it has now become more of a holiday to celebrate the Irish culture and it’s influences worldwide.


The United States has celebrated St. Patrick’s Day well before it’s independence from Great Britain. The first St. Patrick’s Day and parade in North America was held in Boston in 1737 followed by New York City in 1756. While St. Patrick’s Day originated in Ireland, the largest St. Patrick’s Day parade is held in Chicago with over 2 million spectators and participants. The US, with it’s large Irish ancestry, has parties, parades and events throughout the country.

UFO Video from Dublin, Ireland

-



For those of you interested and open minded there has long been a fascination with UFOs in America, ever since the ancient Indian petrogliths depicted strange creatures and space ships thousands of years ago. The Rosewell incident in the summer of 1947 heightened the interest and the USA space program has added to the mystery.



In my work with the Hopi Indians over the years numerous elders and wisdom keepers made casual reference to me of these Blue People who came many centuries ago and have helped the Hopi over the centuries. In fact there is a grave of one such person I was shown in Arizona. The wisdom of the Hopi, the truth of the spiritual leaders, and the ancient prophecies of the Hopi give far more truth to what they say than our government.



Last fall I was shooting photos of the unusual circle formation at the top of this story from my porch at Coltons Point. I then zoomed in on the contrail cutting across the circle and got the two shots showing some kind of a sphere crossing the circle. At the same time I took a photo of another contrail showing a plane and the aircraft were clearly distinguishable from spheres.

Ironically one of the greatest series of sightings in American history took part in the Washington, DC area in the 1950's, confirmed by officers at Andrews Air Force base, and spheres were reported in the sklies south of our nation's capitol. Coltons Point is south of Washington, DC.



About ten years ago I was at a base in the frontier outside of Moscow, Russia reviewing secret KGB film archives and came across many Soviet government photos of ufos. Interviews with former Soviet officials indicated the existence of ufos was accepted by the Soviet Union and encounters were well documented.



In my years in various US government offices I interviewed many people from the armed services and associated with Project Bluebook, the alleged government cover up of ufo activity. The private acknowledgement of the officials was in sharp contrast to the official denial of ufos.

This past week a video was shot in Dublin, Ireland with night vision and it showed the following.



As a reporter one must remain open to truth. Signs and symbols seem to indicate there is a great deal more truth to the statement we are not alone than many might suspect and there is reason to believe such truths may be proven in the very near future. You might want to consider the possibility.
