BUFO WEBSITE
Well, it may be embryonic, but it's here!  I've learned a lot about setting
up a site, and I have a lot more to go.  This is the kind of thing that will
build up over time: I don't consider several of the sections finished yet.
 Please give me any suggestions.  I know I don't have everyone or everything
listed that I should: feel free to remind me if I haven't gotten you in there
yet.  The URL is  <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/BufoCalvin/index.html">BufoC
alvin's Home Page</A> (http://members.aol.com/bufocalvin/index.html).

CLICKABLE LINKS
You may have also noticed some underlined (and possibly blue) links already.
 For most people, you should be able to click on that to go there.  If you
are reading this on-line, it ought to be direct...if not, it may want you to
sign on first.

Bufo's WEIRD WORLD Books
I'm very excited about this!  Some of you know, I ran a bookstore for years,
and it has always been a love of mine.  I get asked often to recommend books
(I do write reviews for several publications) on these topics, and now I can
do it and actually give you a source for them at the same time!  This is
being done in association with Amazon.com, which has an outstanding
reputation for the four "S"s of internet shopping: service, selection,
savings, and security.  If there is any specific book you want (or topic in
which you are interested), let me know and I will do the research and e-mail
you a link you can use to check it out more (and order it if you want).  I
will be linking to books within the Media Alert, to make it more efficient
for you.  If you click on the link, you will be sent to that title on Amazon.
 You do =not= have to buy it at that point!  You may, but the option is
yours.  Here is the link:  <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/weirdware/books.htm

On to the listings!

FICTIONAL NOTES:

This is where I briefly cover items which are fictional but which I feel are
worth mentioning, either because of the impact they have had on the field or
vice versa. I don't list weekly shows, just special items.  E! has the ALICE
episode where she sees a UFO (called "Alice Sees the Light") on Sunday at
5:00 AM Pacific (most times are Pacific time here).  If I asked you to name a
show with paranormal story lines, how long would it take you to get to
TRAPPER JOHN, MD?  This week, FX has two eps with such themes: "42" on
Wednesday at noon, with someone with chest-burns claiming to be an alien; and
"Future Imperfect" on Tuesday at noon, which involves possibly precognitive
visions.  Nickelodeon's RUPERT has "Rupert and Nessie" on Tuesday at 1:00
PM...the Rupester rescues the Loch Ness monster.  AMC has the original
INVASION OF THE BODYSNATCHERS at 10:00 AM on Saturday.  Sunday at 5:00 AM,
Encore runs THE VALLEY OF GWANGI...a Ray Harryhausen cowboys and dinosaurs
flick.  I couldn't miss echoes of it in THE LOST WORLD (JPII).  At 6:35 AM on
Monday, SHOWTIME has what I still consider the most important flying saucer
fictional film, THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL.  At the other end of the
scale, in my humble opinion, is THE ARRIVAL, playing on Cinemax at 8:00 PM on
Wednesday.
