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...

I'M THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN



It's tuesday, the sun is hot, the birds are singing and Richard is muttering arcane nonsense about the Frozen plateau of Leng. God's in his heaven, Cthullhu's in his drowned corpse city, and all is right with the cosmos.

We have all sorts of jolly stuff for you today.

First of all, there is something that I have to share with you. Last night I opened a bottle of wine, and with the elderly orange cat sitting on my lap, I settled down to listen to 'Curly's Airships' by Judge Smith. Bloody hell its good:

We have a link to some exciting news about Trevor Rabin, guitarist with Yes between 1982-94:

Whilst on the subject of Yes alumni, we have a whole page of news updates from the mighty Jon Anderson (and whilst on this subject, may I recommend his latest offering 'Open', a download only track which is preety damn magnificent:

Regular readers will know about my punky mate Nick Redfern - a well known UFO author. After reading Michael Des Barres' eulogistic comments about Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones on Gonzo Daily a week or two bac, he sent us something highly peculiar:

And now we have a little piece during which I bemoan the fact that Kevin Ayers (who has two CDs out on Gonzo) doesn't release an album of new material once a fortnight:

And finally we take a look at an excellent Grateful Dead dvd from those jolly nice people at Chrome Dreams:

See you tomorrow..
