Part 32 – “A Terlokyan” – Brought to you by Energy Efficient Lighting.
09/17/13
In Part 31, I told how this beautiful, bronzed skin goddess with bright white hair, rescued me from a field of killer plants. After getting down off the bear or tiger or whatever kind of beast we were riding, this goddess reared back and threw a fist right over my shoulder into the face of some leathery being that had floated or dropped out of a tree right behind me. It appeared that everyone wanted me for dinner – as the main course. As I recovered enough to finally stand like I wasn’t on the deck of some rolling ship in hurricane waters, the goddess spoke, “So, you’re new around here, right?” And I answered, “What gave it away? My pearly white skin, or my weird clothes?” “Neither,” she said. “It’s because everyone wants to eat you and you’re unaware of it.”
I was mesmerized. This was the most gorgeous creature I had ever laid eyes one. “What are you?” I asked. “A Terlokyan,” she answered. She looked as human as you and me but with an endless summer tan and had the ultimate in bleach blond hair – totally white. Not gray or some kind of hair that turned grey, but pure white that was so bright that it seems to shine even when there was no light. This was the first of many Terlokyans that I would meet. And that’s how the six book series called ‘The Savior Project’ started. So what else happened? … I’ve hit the 2 para wall. I’ll roll on next week.
NEXT WEEK – More Than One!
This week’s blog has been brought to you by Energy Efficient Lighting. This company belongs to a friend of mine and I’m trying to help him out by getting him a little exposure. I would never use his lights. His designs are just not to my taste. I’ve got a picture below of one of his chandeliers.
You’ve heard o Chris Gates … right? Check out his website … - www.saviorproject.net He’s the main character in The Chosen One.
Would you buy this guy’s lights? Really?

Part 31 – “Captivated!” – Brought to you by Falcon Watchers
09/10/13
In Part 30, I put you right into the action that I was in. Having been surrounded by these huge alien beasts while walking through a field of beautiful plants, I suddenly saw her riding one of these beasts. She kicked it in the sides and came straight for me. I was captivated by her. Long bright white hair flowing in the wind framed the most beautiful bronze face I had ever seen. The beast she was riding looked like a combination of animals: the head of a bear with swept-back horns like a Musk Ox, the body shape of a tiger but it was the size of a horse, with a fierce coloring of green and black tiger stripes with the head being all black.
I was already down on one knee, too tired to even stand anymore. The plants around me were blowing up against me, touching, me, and emitting an intoxicating aroma. My vision started to cloud over and I could barely make her out anymore as she closed in. She was waving her hand up as if she wanted me to rise. I just couldn’t get up. Plus I was mesmerized by her. She could have run over me and I wouldn’t have cared. Just as I collapsed amongst the plants, she rode up to me, flew off her beast, and knelt next to me and said, “You must get up. These plants are killing you for food. Come with me.” She helped me to my feet and had to practically push me up onto the beast. Then she effortlessly climbed up in front of me and we proceeded to ride like lightning towards the woods.
Upon entering the woods, … rats … two paragraphs already? I was on a roll here. Oh well.
NEXT WEEK – A Terlokyan.

Part 30 – “Trapped!” – Brought to you by Joywind
09/03/13
In Part 29, I brought you up to speed on the dreams and adventures I was starting to have. In one, I discovered a very unusual animal that these green humans with white hair rode and actually bonded with. Well, I came upon a herd of them when I was alone and they casually surrounded me while I was just strolling along looking for something to do. I had come into this adventure (after getting in bed to go to sleep) doing battle alongside other ‘greenies’ (as I called them at that time) as we fought these ugly reptiles. I must have drifted off because the next thing I knew, I was walking along by myself through a meadow filled with unbelievably beautiful tall plants that looked similar to flower-like plants found on Earth. But they seemed to be alive like animals, swaying and singing to me. I was feeling rather comfortable and relaxed, even a bit tired. I pondered lying down and taking a nap when I noticed the first one.
Off to my left I saw a huge bear … so I thought. It had the head of a bear but with horns like a Musk Ox. As it came nearer to me and more of it was exposed, I could see stripes on its body, but what a large body. It looked like it was the size of a horse but the body shape looked like that of a tiger. The stripes were green and black with the head being all black. As it came closer, I saw it was being followed by other beasts just like it. And they were coming towards me. Seeing that the lead one was rapidly closing on me, I started moving along a little faster. But those plants kept singing to me and brushing up against me making me feel really sleepy. As I slowed down, I realized that these beasts had surrounded me. I started to panic and thought about making a run for it, but there were no gaps. Besides, I really didn’t think I could outrun them and I was so tired. I was definitely trapped. That’s when I saw her.
Oh what a shame … I have to stop. It’s that two paragraph rule.
NEXT WEEK – Captivated.
This week’s blog has been brought to you by Joywind. This was Charlottesville’s first head shop and was located next to Tovins which eventually became the Mineshaft. There is a controversy as to who owned/started Joywind. Some say Dave Sherman co-owned Charlottesville's first head shop. Others say Tom and Pam Fristoe (from Florida) hooked up with Jackie Feldman and Chuck Brewer to start it. Anyway, it thrived during the 70s and was a joy to all. A picture of what was normally found at Joywind is below.
There are two adult females involved in the life of Chris Gates, Lisa and Zenta. Can you tell which is which? Try and find out – visit Chris Gates’ website at … http://www.saviorproject.net/5.html
Can you tell who is who?

Part 29 – “They were green?” – Brought to you by The Peppermint Beach Club.
08/27/13
In Part 28, I went over boring Boonesville. Even if a place was real or imagined, I realized that I could create any place I wanted whether it existed previously or not. So I created another Earth like world. It would eventually become Terlokya, but it became a place for me to escape to. I could be anyone I wanted, go anywhere I wanted, and see anything and everything. I would place myself there and just be.
At night, as I went to sleep, I would go there before drifting off and would dream about it. I would wake up and if I remembered to keep a pad and paper next to the bed (as I did most nights) I would write down stuff that happened and be totally blown away when I woke up enough to realize what I had written. The people on the future planet of Terlokya did have white hair, just like in the book. But they were green. Not like little green men. They were human and as cool as they are in the book. And they fought wars, rode wild beasts, and did many of the things you will read about in book 2. The adventures were awesome.
One time I was … uh oh … it’s that time.
NEXT WEEK – Trapped!
This week’s blog has been brought to you by The Peppermint Beach Club. This was one awesome club to hang out in back in the 70s down in Virginia Beach. A picture of the club is below.

Part 28 – “Where is that?” – Brought to you by the Taylor Aerocar.
08/20/13
In Part 27, I recapped hanging out with cool people like Mickey Mantle and Raquel Welch. But I was getting bored with just seeing people so I went to Hawaii. Since I had never been there, I didn’t know what to expect or what it looked like. All I knew was that there were sandy beaches and palm trees in a tropical paradise. After that little trip, I went to the library to look up pictures about Hawaii. (Come on … I didn’t have access to the limited internet back then and neither did most people – heck, I didn’t even know it existed back then, but it did.)
What I discovered at the library was that the areas I went to in Hawaii didn’t really exist. Well, they didn’t exist exactly as I saw them. Sure, I was on sandy beaches under palm trees but I couldn’t find any pictures showing the places I had been. So I decided to experiment with traveling. There is a little town/hamlet/village/whatever in the northern part of our county called Boonesville. I had never been to it so I ‘traveled’ there and walked around checking it out. There were some houses, a few stores, nothing much else. After getting back, I drove my motorcycle out to Boonesville to see how accurate my trip was. It was a little different in real life. The roads weren’t the same, nor the buildings, or anything else. Close, but with many differences. My trip had Boonesville looking a little better than what I actually discovered. I told my brother what I did and he had no idea where Boonesville was. “Where is that?” was his only response. Not much help from him in deciphering this whole thing. But with this new found knowledge, I figured I should try and make places up and go to them.
So I started inventing … whoops … you know the drill.
NEXT WEEK – They were green?
This week’s blog has been brought to you by the Taylor Aerocar. Built in 1949, the Taylor Aerocar actually worked … meaning it successfully flew. Only 6 were built. It seems the idea just never took off. Get it? Never took off? Oh, never mind. A picture of one of them is below.
Why don’t you take a short stroll over to my website and cruise around for a while … www.fritzfranke.net. And if you want to hook up on Facebook, then hit me up. With a name like I have, I’m easy to find.
Did I bore you with this week’s blurb about Boonesville?

Part 27 – “I’m hanging out with whom?” – Brought to you by Bricklin.
08/13/13
In Part 26, I discovered that I was having really intense controllable dreams, (maybe not OBEs) hanging out with these very beautiful girls, and … well … I don’t want to bore you with details. The point is, is that I could do all kinds of things with people I didn’t know. So I asked myself, “Self, you should find out if you can hang with famous people you’ve heard of, seen in the news, etc, but that you’ve never met personally.” So I discovered/created this party place in Paris and had two of my favorite people there, Bridget Bardot and Carlos Santana. Remember, this is the 70s and I’m 16. I tried to hang out with them but I quickly found out that even though this wasn’t real, (seemed real to me) I couldn’t control everything. Carlos and Bridget took off somewhere and I was left looking pretty lame. Very disappointing.
When I got back to reality, it dawned on me that I should find out who and what I could control. I found out that I could deliver m16s to Davy Crocket, Jim Bowie, and the rest of Texan Army at the Alamo, but they couldn’t figure out how to use them in time to beat General Santa Anna’s Mexican army. (The lost battle of the Alamo always bothered me as a kid. And I idolized Davy Crockett – being a country boy.) Also, I could not persuade Hitler to leave the Jewish people alone and was unsuccessful in my assassination attempt. However, I was able to become friends with Mickey Mantle and hung out with Raquel Welch. Where else could I go and who else could I meet?
I then decided to travel to … oops, gotta go. I hit the 2 paragraph mark already.
NEXT WEEK – Where is that?
This week’s blog has been brought to you by Bricklin. This cool looking car was estimated to cost $16,000 to build, but sold for $5000 each to dealers, so the company lost the equivalent in sales of more than two Bricklins for every car built. Needless to say, they went under in 1975. Duh. You’ll find a pic of one of these great looking cars below.

Part 26 – “EUREKA!!!” – Brought to you by Hanover Township. NOTE – Been on vacation the last 2 weeks. Beach time!!!
08/06/13
In Part 25, I had been trying to jump over the boxwoods that separated our house from our neighbors. It was real foggy around our house and I really hurt my knee on the last jump. So I forced myself out of the OBE, and do you know what I saw when I sat up in my bed? I had fully expected to find my jeans torn and my knee bloodied. But my jeans were fine and my knee had nary a bruise. That’s when it hit me … I wasn’t really having true OBEs, or at least I didn’t understand what a true Out of Body Experience was. I figured I was having really intense, controllable dreams. Was I actually asleep? I don’t know. And I didn’t care. I could go places that felt like I was really there and I could remember everything that happened. I just couldn’t interact with anyone I knew. So what did I do?
I traveled and did cool things. I discovered that I could do some amazing things – pretty much anything I wanted to do. Everyone knows that Superman can just jump up in the air and fly. I could do that. He could pick up a car or whatever. Once I picked up a car, that wasn’t worth pursuing anymore – lifting heavy things. I could hit a baseball out of any stadium. I pitched a hundred mile an hour fastball. I threw the perfect football pass every time. I also met some very beautiful girls and was able to … uh … this is a good time to stop. Really??? (you say …) Yeah, it is.
NEXT WEEK – I’m hanging out with whom?
This week’s blog has been brought to you by Hanover Township. This is the little hamlet that I stay in on Lake Erie with my kids and cousins. I included a couple of pics below. One of them has my daughter and my youngest son walking up the street from the beach to our cottage. The other looks down the street from the cottage’s deck. Beyond those houses is the lake. Good times. Good times.
Sorry for the 2 week vacation, but I needed it. So for all that turmoil going on in my life … yes it is part of The Odyssey of This Writer, and that part of the story will come out. Just not yet. It’s painful. Still.
Also, please visit the book series website if you haven’t already – www.saviorproject.com
CYA next Tuesday.
Glad to be back on track. Whatcha think?

In Part 25, I had been trying to jump over the boxwoods that separated our house from our neighbors. It was real foggy around our house and I really hurt my knee on the last jump. So I forced myself out of the OBE, and do you know what I saw when I sat up in my bed? I had fully expected to find my jeans torn and my knee bloodied. But my jeans were fine and my knee had nary a bruise. That’s when it hit me … I wasn’t really having true OBEs, or at least I didn’t understand what a true Out of Body Experience was. I figured I was having really intense, controllable dreams. Was I actually asleep? I don’t know. And I didn’t care. I could go places that felt like I was really there and I could remember everything that happened. I just couldn’t interact with anyone I knew. So what did I do?

Part 25 – “OWWW!!!” – Brought to you by The Beatles.
07/16/13
In Part 24, while doing an OBE, I was trying to actually go and see myself while I was in the OBE. But every time I tried getting close to my house it would get too foggy to see. So I had one of those quick fleeting thoughts, the kind you should ignore. Instead, I acted upon it. I ran towards the house and leaped over the boxwoods that separated our house from the neighbor’s house. I hit something so hard that I’m sure people heard it. You see, I didn’t land on my feet. I hit my parent’s car that was parked in the driveway. It was foggy and I didn’t plan things out well. Obviously. Anyway, when I gathered my senses and looked around, I was still on the neighbor’s side of the boxwoods. I have no idea how that happened. I was positive I made it over those damn bushes. I got up and tried to walk but my knee took the brunt of the hit and hurt like heck. I felt my jeans and there was a good tear in them and I kinda thought I felt blood. That’s when it dawned on me. I know I hit that car. It’s pretty easy to tell if you’ve hit metal or hit the ground. When I hit that car, it wasn’t like I had another thud of hitting the ground. I hit the car and then found myself on the other side of the bushes – the same side I started from.
Well, with my knee was killing me so I started hobbling back up the street to my friend’s house when I said to myself, “Self, you can’t interact with anyone there so just get out of the OBE.” So I willed myself out of the OBE. As I came out of the OBE and sat up in bed, I looked down at my jeans, and can you imagine what I saw? That’ll have to wait till next week.
NEXT WEEK – Eureka!
This week’s blog has been brought to you by The Beatles … why? – Because they aren’t a group anymore!!! How else could I get them to sponsor me? Anyway … below is a pic of them right before they crossed Abby Road for that famous album cover.
Let me know what you thought of this week’s blog. Also, please visit the book series website if you haven’t already – www.saviorproject.com
CYA next Tuesday.
Well, is it getting exciting or what?

Part 24 – “Trouble?” – Brought to you by Bricklin.
07/09/13
In Part 23, I went on a rant about life. That’s done so let’s get back in trouble from Part 22. This is where I am in an OBE, and decide to go back to where I physically am, and see myself in a trance having the OBE. So I made my way down the street towards my house. It’s night time and as I got closer to the house, a fog started rolling in. I could still see the lights on in the house but this was a fast moving fog and got thicker the closer I got to the house. As I’m about to get to our gravel driveway, the fog got so dense that I couldn’t see my hand in front of my face. I couldn’t see any lights anywhere. Then I started worrying that a car may come down the street and hit me. I felt around with my foot for a hint of gravel but my tennis shoe kept sliding over smooth pavement.
So I decided to back up, one step at a time to see if I could back out of the fog. Sure enough that worked. After backing up about ten paces, I could again see dim lights coming from our house and the neighbor’s house. I walked up the neighbor’s driveway trying to keep the same distance from my house that I found after backing up. The problem was that every time I tried to get a little closer, the fog would thicken. Then I had one of those spur-of-the-moment profound ideas that if I had taken a little more time to analyze the outcome, I may have decided against it. I didn’t take that time. Instead, I … gee … this might be a good stopping point since a new paragraph would be starting. Oh well. Gotta wait till next time.
NEXT WEEK – OWWW!!!
This week’s blog has been brought to you by Bricklin, the cool car company where each car cost $16,000 to make but the idiot owners sold them for $5,000 each to dealers. There’s a money making deal for everyone … but the owners. Needless to say, the company didn’t last long. Below is a pic of a brick.
