Direct from 1974 and the kindness of Brent Turner, we present the Christmas episode of the Top 40/Sci-Fi radio show The OIDAR Wavelength! The premise? The OIDAR Wavelength is a musical program from the future, playing oldies from the 20th Century, and somehow, we back in the seventies were/are able to hear the program due to some space/time continuum. In between the (sometimes good, sometimes horribly wretched) musical fodder, a mysterious announcer known only as "Programmer #9" relates twisted news and human interest stories from the future, the programs' present. And this is the Christmas episode! It seems that Mr. Turner was at a local swap meet and came across a whole box of OIDAR Wavelength reel to reel tapes! And he sent some programs to me and now I share them with you! Remember, this was originally broadcast in 1974. In Los Angeles, the OIDAR Wavelength aired on KKDJ, a typical Top 40 station, usually starting just after the midnight hour. Included with the broadcast are several commercials, including one for an outfit called Tapeworks. When you hear the ad, you will feel much, much better about your job! Enjoy The Show!
Merry Christmas from the future!

I live in SoCal and no I didn't see the "UFO" sighting this weekend but I have friends who did.
They told me "no way that was a UFO."

Psychological Implications of the James Holmes Case
I'm not a former famous baseball player, and I'm not anyone that has anything to gain by taking a stand one way or another in cases such as the James Holmes case. But I do work in the mental health field. I'm a professional with a masters degree, and for the most part I live a normal life, with normal interests and a busted up knee. I'm not particularly mad at our government, and while I hate a being around a heavy police presence, I benefit from the services of our police. I pay my taxes, I'm paying back my student loan granted to me by my government. I hate the nightly news because to me it's a well-designed infomercial. In fact, I have no business writing about the case outside of how it affects my life.
The James Holmes shooting up of a movie theater in Aurora is one crazy story that does impact mental health and thus impacts the way I will be doing business at some point. But what if this story was assembled by our government as so many folks on the internet believe? It hasn't panned out taking the devil's advocate in conversation at the local bar, it almost got me knocked out, in fact. The story is so complex that it is very difficult for me to wrap my brain around the notion it was merely a false flag. There are the families to consider. There is an entire city that has publicly mourned their loss. There is a tidal wave of news to filter through. And there's a licensed psychologist involved.
And there's my mind, that always looks at the meta data, processing, filtering and digesting all that information and comprising my diagnosis for the offending party...
Imagine if this was a fraud and we're left, as mental health workers, to accept this determination. We then base further treatment with this offense in mind. Knowing something else really happened...
Ok.. this is where I start to get into "midnight mode" so I'm just going to leave this topic before I drive myself crazy...

Property Of Mars
A long time ago, back when I decided that I'd become a blogger...
The time came when it was just simpler to put down a pad and pen and build an online home or two (or 50) where all the topics I am most interested in can be discussed and pondered. Some could remain in confidence, others could reach out to those who like similar topics. So one day I thought of Property Of Mars where I could talk about stories that are in most cases unexplained, or weird, or appealing to my senses.
I hope everything posted here is just the warmup - it seems like I have more in the tank and I want to sell t-shirts. And since blogging is said to be dead, I cannot help but want to share the way lots of my current writer-heroes continue on with it...
How to present is a continuing difficulty - and twitter complicates matters...
Here's the difficulty - I don't want to submit stories you can read on 50 other bigger sites. I want to bring up tidbits you may not discuss enough. So stay tuned, I'm just trying to reconfigure my sources for info and this eats away minutes, hours, whatever, if you allow it the opportunity.
And yes, I plan to sell some Property of Mars t-shirts soon.
