Alabama and Cleburne County have not
been known for "hotbeds" of strange activity including UFO and Bigfoot sightings
- despite the fact that National Forests seem to be a big factor in appearances
of the latter. However, some quick Internet searches turn up some strange
activity over the years right here in Cleburne County including several
sightings of strange lights and one reported incident of large footprints in the
Talladega National Forest. The "bigfoot" reports comes from the Bigfoot Field
Researchers Organization at www.bfro.net Dated September, 1994 at Sweetwater
Lake in the Talladega National Forest, the report states, "About seven years ago
my wife and I were at a lake in the middle of the Talladega National Forest in
Alabama. The lake was Sweet water Lake. We were fishing in a small boat at the
end of a slew early in the morning, we were the only ones at the lake, I think
it was on a Wednesday and we were all alone.
We heard something scream, it started
out as a howl and turned into a long high pitched scream and it was so loud it
echoed through the mountains. It made the hair stand up on the back of our
necks. But that is not all. About a year before that my stepfather and I were
hiking around the same lake, we liked to fish at a spillway way on the backside
of the lake, and about 1/2 mile into the hike we crossed a fire brake about 20
feet wide, now keep in mind that we are a pretty good way back in the woods, we
have crossed rocks thorns and briars and all kinds of rough ground. And right
there across the dried mud in the fire brake is a set of foot prints dried into
the mud. They were not huge, they were about the size of a full grown man but
they did look human, I just couldn’t understand why a man would be this far back
in the woods without shoes on. And over the years there is one thing I have
thought about a bigfoot would have to grow up, so maybe it was a young
Bigfoot...
One of the most enduring aerial phenomena of recent times is the mystery of the Brown Mountain Lights or North Carolina. The lights have been reported for hundreds of years and have been investigated by the US Geological Survey."The Brown Mountain Lights are one of the most famous of North Carolina legends.
They have been reported a dozen times in newspaper stories. They have been investigated at least twice by the U.S. Geological Survey."

It is rumored that with Phoenix III at Montauk, that government scientists were able to create a time tunnel of sorts and to make sure that the time tunnel worked, drunks and derelicts were collected and thrown into the time tunnel. They made sure the drunks and derelicts were sober for a week, before entering the tunnel, if they were to survive and come back, they were questioned by government officials. The story goes, many didn't make it back and they are still floating in the midst of time. The few that did make it back, their stories were retrieved and later they died by mysterious circumstances. The government selected drunks and derelicts, because they would not be missed by friends or family members. Below this article you will find my comments on the 2nd Montauk Monster that they found. If for some reason DNA testing of this strange animal is analyzed and it is determined that it comes from an unknown species, then I will eat crow. I will also look at the factors of this strange place called Montauk Point. A place where a dimensional rift may have been torn into our own space/time continuum that now allows creatures such as the Montauk Monster to enter our plane of existence. At Fort Hero, there is an abandoned air force base that was decommissioned in 1969. The base at some areas seems operational and finances to keep areas of this base operational come from unknown sources. Montauk Point is a scenic area with a beautiful lighthouse. But this scenic area may be hiding strange secrets that date back to 1943. In 1943 the USS Eldridge was experimented on. The government sought out radar undetectibility, but stumbled onto something else. Legend has it, that the USS Eldridge became invisible and was removed from our space/time continuum. It was also teleported 100 miles away to Norfolk, VA. The sailors on board were released to mental facilities, so any comments they would say to the public, would be perceived as unbelievable. It was also reported that some of the sailors were infused into the hulk of the ship. You would see a man's torso seemingly glued to the hull of the ship. It was rumored a green mist enveloped the ship and it became invisible to many witnesses. Experiments in time travel and further experiments.
The strangest monument in America looms over a barren knoll in northeastern Georgia. Five massive slabs of polished granite rise out of the earth in a star pattern. The rocks are each 16 feet tall, with four of them weighing more than 20 tons apiece. Together they support a 25,000-pound capstone. Approaching the edifice, it's hard not to think immediately of England's Stonehenge or possibly the ominous monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Built in 1980, these pale gray rocks are quietly awaiting the end of the world as we know it.Called the Georgia Guidestones, the monument is a mystery—nobody knows exactly who commissioned it or why. The only clues to its origin are on a nearby plaque on the ground—which gives the dimensions and explains a series of intricate notches and holes that correspond to the movements of the sun and stars—and the "guides" themselves, directives carved into the rocks. These instructions appear in eight languages ranging from English to Swahili and reflect a peculiar New Age ideology. Some are vaguely eugenic (guide reproduction wisely—improving fitness and diversity); others prescribe standard-issue hippie mysticism (prize truth—beauty—love—seeking harmony with the infinite).What's most widely agreed upon—based on the evidence available—is that the Guidestones are meant to instruct the dazed survivors of some impending apocalypse as they attempt to reconstitute civilization. Not everyone is comfortable with this notion. A few days before I visited, the stones had been splattered with polyurethane and spray-painted with graffiti, including slogans like "Death to the new world order." This defacement was the first serious act of vandalism in the Guidestones' history, but it was hardly the first objection to their existence. In fact, for more than three decades this uncanny structure in the heart of the Bible Belt has been generating responses that range from enchantment to horror. Supporters (notable among them Yoko Ono) have praised the messages as a stirring call to rational thinking, akin to Thomas Paine's The Age of Reason. Opponents have attacked them as the Ten Commandments of the Antichrist.Whoever the anonymous architects of the Guidestones were, they knew.
