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...

OVER ON THE GONZO BLOG


The Gonzo blog today is another rather groovy one (but when isn't it?)

We revisit Michael Des Barres's forthcoming album, and wonder at the acausive synchronicity of the whole 'Best of British' thing:http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/michael-de-barres-true-brit.html

We have an exclusive video interview with Gonzo head honcho Rob Ayling. He talks about the Gonzo ethos, the lost broadcasts, and forthcoming releases by Frank Zappa, Stephen Stills and Captain Beefheart:http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/exclusive-video-chat-with-gonzo-md-rob.html

Whilst on the subject of Captain Beefheart and the forthcoming Gonzo dvd, here are some interesting snippets including a blogpost about his birthplace, and a cartoon depiction of his life by the ever wonderful John Allison:http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/where-captain-beefheart-was-born.html

The world is a poorer place because, 'the father of loud', Jim Marshall has died:

In my day job I am a cryptozoologist, and over the past thirteen years I have studied the grotesque vampiric chupacabras, and even written two books about it. Now proggers Phideaux (who I suspect got their name from the 1975 Goodies annual) get in on the act:http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/chupacabras.html

I am a born-again Wally fan, and it seems that I am not the only one:
