WELCOME TO THE CFZ BLOG NETWORK: COME AND JOIN THE FUN

Half a century ago, Belgian Zoologist Bernard Heuvelmans first codified cryptozoology in his book On the Track of Unknown Animals.

The Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ) are still on the track, and have been since 1992. But as if chasing unknown animals wasn't enough, we are involved in education, conservation, and good old-fashioned natural history! We already have three journals, the largest cryptozoological publishing house in the world, CFZtv, and the largest cryptozoological conference in the English-speaking world, but in January 2009 someone suggested that we started a daily online magazine! The CFZ bloggo is a collaborative effort by a coalition of members, friends, and supporters of the CFZ, and covers all the subjects with which we deal, with a smattering of music, high strangeness and surreal humour to make up the mix.

It is edited by CFZ Director Jon Downes, and subbed by the lovely Lizzy Bitakara'mire (formerly Clancy), scourge of improper syntax. The daily newsblog is edited by Corinna Downes, head administratrix of the CFZ, and the indexing is done by Lee Canty and Kathy Imbriani. There is regular news from the CFZ Mystery Cat study group, and regular fortean bird news from 'The Watcher of the Skies'. Regular bloggers include Dr Karl Shuker, Dale Drinnon, Richard Muirhead and Richard Freeman.The CFZ bloggo is updated daily, and there's nothing quite like it anywhere else. Come and join us...

DALE DRINNON: The latest on 'Cedar and Willow'


I'd like to thank all of the people thayt looked in on the last Cedar and Willow posting on Tommy and Chickie, the current count on that is 90 page views over the wekend, which is good for that blog. It must be the "Men are from Mars, Women Are From Venus" poster. Or probably more likely the Masters of the Universe part. Anyway, today's blog is a followup Tom and Chickie blog which connects them up to Cedar and Willow in the 1800s and includes a pasteup representation for the early 1990s FRPG game set that included Tom and Chickie as characters:

Probably later I shall go on and on about the plots of those games, their gear and so on. I must belong in ordinance because one of my favourite part of doing role-playing games is keeping track of the gear the characters are using (Chickie reaches into her bag and pulls out her revolving-drum multiple- grenade launcher and sends an incendiary into the following humvee "We're outta here!" yells Tom "Whenever EITHER the Arabs or Israelis get a whiff of that where we are now, they'll be all over us like a swarm of bees!")
