BEVARE THE BIG GREEN DRAGON
[Guest-posted by Jack Womack:]
Speaking of Ed Wood, Jr., of the seventeen novels of his that I own*, this is the only one where he also served as cover model.
*I realize this possibly has the same impact as Fort's line:
>>I have collected 294 records of showers of living things.
If so, let me further note that I have twenty-one novels by Harry Stephen Keeler.[image error]

Here is William Lindsay Gresham's life insurance ID card, and his copy of a particularly apt title by Ed Wood, Jr. (Kathleen Everitt was Ed's wife's name.) His books: Nightmare Alley and Monster Midway, fiction and nonfiction respectively.
If you met Gresham, I gather he would hand you one of these two cards.[image error]

THE NON REALITY-BASED COALITION WILL PLEASE COME TO ORDER
[Guest-blogged by Jack Womack:]
Agreed: that the earth is hollow and that we live on the outside.
Seconded. Agreed further that a posh civilization of unknown origin concurrently lives on the inside, its nude inhabitants perhaps fed on honeydew, or bulldozer-size mushrooms.
Point of order.
Would request of the Chairman permission to modify the motion.
Agreed, that the earth, if it is indeed a globe, is accordingly hollow, likely does have a posh civilization of unknown origin living in luxury within,
