Wagging the Moondoggie, Part XIV
May 12, 2011
by David McGowan

Anyway, as I noted in the last Apollo post, “whenever NASA types talk about going ‘back’ to the Moon,” they invariably seem to “unintentionally raise questions about the legitimacy of the Apollo missions.” And sure enough, the boys over at Lockheed Martin (one of NASA’s longtime partners-in-crime) certainly didn’t let me down in that regard with this latest proposal.

Before proceeding, I should probably first clarify here that the proposed missions are not so ambitious as to involve actually landing on the Moon. No, these proposed missions involve merely flying to the Moon’s far side and then sort of hanging out in Lunar orbit for a couple of weeks. In other words, all of the most technologically demanding aspects of the alleged Apollo missions – like actually landing on the Moon, surviving on the Moon, lifting off from the Moon, and docking while in Lunar orbit – have been eliminated.

Inside The LC: The Strange but Mostly True Story of Laurel Canyon and the Birth of the Hippie Generation
Part XVIII
May 26, 2011


“Our music was far from political or antiwar … I never felt comfortable with political advocacy.”
~ John Phillips

“There were no political speeches or overt protest songs performed.”
~ John Phillips, discussing the Monterey Pop Festival, of which he was a key organizer


Thus far on this journey, we have seen how what are arguably the two most bloody and notorious mass murders in the history of the City of Angels – the Manson Family murders of the occupants of the home on Cielo Drive in Benedict Canyon, and the so-called Four-On-The-Floor bludgeoning murders of four Laurel Canyon drug dealers on Wonderland Avenue – were directly connected to the Laurel Canyon music scene.

But the city of Los Angeles can boast of one other particularly notorious murder, which stands to this day as both the most gruesome single-victim murder and the most famous unsolved murder in the city’s history.

On January 15, 1947, the mutilated body of aspiring actress Elizabeth Short was found posed in a field. The ritualistically butchered body was nude, sliced cleanly in half, and completely drained of blood. Parts of the body had been removed, after which the corpse had been thoroughly sanitized. Bruising clearly indicated that the young girl had been savagely beaten. Forensic evidence suggested that she had been forced to eat feces during her tortuous ordeal. She was quickly dubbed the ‘Black Dahlia,’ and it is by that name that she is known and written about today.

Widener makes a few lukewarm assertions in this series, but he also hits some home runs.

Chief among the home runs is his comparison of the Overlook's carpet to the Apollo 11 launchpad.

We have a launch!

One interesting tidbit that Widener didn't mention, however, is that in the cut between the initial scene of Danny sitting on the floor and the scene of him rising, he ends up facing the OPPOSITE direction.

Observe the carpet patterns:

Another indication that the mission was faked.

Part XIX


“This is going to break your heart, but much of the music you heard in the ‘60s and early ‘70s wasn’t recorded by the people you saw on the album covers. It was done by me and the musicians you see on these walls … Many of these kids didn’t have the chops and were little more than garage bands … At concerts, people hear with their eyes. Teens cut groups slack in concert, but not when they bought their records.”

~ Hal Blaine, longtime drummer for the Wrecking Crew, quoted in the Wall Street Journal on March 23, 2011

Before moving ahead with the John Phillips saga, I first need to pose an extremely important question to all my readers: is anyone out there in the market for a slightly used, covert film studio? If so, then all you need do is pull about $6.2 million out of your penny jar (though in today’s housing market, you might be able to cut a better deal) and Lookout Mountain Laboratory can be yours! And if you act fast, you might be able to get a package deal on the lab and the Hodel house! (the photos in this post are of the lab as it looks today as a converted residential dwelling).

Another item worth noting: as reported by the San Francisco Chronicle on January 28, 2011, “Ron Patterson, the flamboyant, free-spirited creator of the Renaissance and Dickens fairs, died Jan. 15 at a friend’s house in Sausalito after an illness. He was 80.” As staff writer Carolyn Jones noted, Patterson’s creation “was sort of a medieval precursor to Burning Man.” And Burning Man is, of course, a rather explicitly occult ritual first performed on the Summer Solstice of 1986 and now performed every summer in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert before an audience of 50,000+.

What does any of that though have to do with Laurel Canyon? As we have seen so many times before, all roads on the Conspiracy Superhighway seem to lead to Laurel Canyon: “In the beginning, the Renaissance Faire was an experiment in Mr. Patterson’s backyard. In the early 1960s, Mr. Patterson and his wife, Phyllis, who were both interested in theater and art, began hosting children’s improvisational theater workshops at their Laurel Canyon (Los Angeles County) home.”

One naturally wonders whether aspiring thespian and golden child Godo Paulekas (originally cast, it will be recalled, to play Satan in Kenneth Anger’s Lucifer Rising) was involved in those workshops. In any event, there is certainly nothing creepy about children’s workshops being hosted in a small, tight-knit community that was home to more than its fair share of pedophiles, so let’s just move along.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Is There a Political Angle to Serial Killers?, March 22, 2006
By Donald Hunt
This review is from: Programmed to Kill: The Politics of Serial Murder (Paperback)

Programmed to Kill: The Politics of Serial Murder, by David McGowan
(New York: iUniverse, Inc., 2004) is not just another sensationalized
book about serial killers. McGowan, author of Derailing Democracy:
The America the Media Don't Want You to See, and Understanding
the F-Word: American Fascism and the Politics of Illusion,
ties serial murders, programmed assassins, satanic cults and child pornography
and prostitution to a fascist political and military conspiracy of frightening scope.

I normally hate reading about this type of material. Too sickening.
But McGowan, unlike most authors who treat this stuff, is not interested in
sensationalized accounts that appeal to dark prurient interests.
Rather, he wants to sound the alarm about the real methods used in
fascist takeovers of societies.

McGowan begins by reviewing the evidence for government sponsored mind
control experiments dating back to the Nazis and the OSS (forerunner of the CIA).
According to McGowan, these shadowy intelligence agencies, along with
the military intelligence units, founded, encouraged, and covered up for Satanic cults,
whose systematic abuse of children from very young ages provided a
contnuing supply of potential mind-controlled programmed assassins.
They supplied not only assassins but also child prostitutes, pornography
subects and even sacrificial victims. The more susceptible to dissociated states,
the easier to program. Mind control in this context refers to "the process of
first enhancing an unwitting subject's natural ability to dissociate
(creating, in essence, the condition of Multiple Personality Disorder),
and then controlling that subject's dissociative states (by creating one
or more alter personalities that are effectively under the control of others,
and that are unknown to the `core' personality)." (p. xv)

Part I of the book is titled "The Pedophocracy."
Here McGowan takes the reader on a tour of child sex, child porn and child murder
rings around the world whose members include many high-ranking political
figures. One of the things that tie all these scandals together is the cover-up
of participants, destruction of evidence, and lenient sentences to those who
have to take the fall by authorities around the world.

From the Marc Dutroux scandal in Belgium, to one in Latvia involving the
Prime Minister and Justice Minister, to another in Portugal, to the scandal in
the United Kingdom that reportedly reached into Tony Blair's cabinet,
to those of Larry King, Michael Aquino and Craig Spence in the United States
with many circumstantial connections to high-ranking political and media figures,
McGowan shows how the damage control operations, including numerous
"suicides" by potential witnesses, work.

McGowan then details the CIA connections of some of the Satanic groups that
have been linked to ritual abuse and killing of children, in particular
the Finders, described in an article in the Washington Post from 1987 as
"a 1960's style commune ... described in a court document as a `cult' that
allegedly conducted `brainwashing' and used children in `rituals (p. 59).
After some members of the group were arrested for possible kidnapping
when found in the possession of several children who they were keeping in a
van and who showed signs of neglect, abuse and sexual abuse, homes and
warehouses belonging to group members were searched. U.S. Customs
found "photos showing children involved in bloodletting ceremonies of
animals and one photograph of a child in chains" (pp. 59-60).

While memos written by one of the U.S. Customs investigators detailed evidence
of much worse actions, nothing was written in the press about the matter until
seven years later when the US News and World Report attempted to
put it to rest by downplaying the accusations as "rumors" even though
they were in the possession of the memos.

McGowan goes on to note that "the firm that supplied training to CIA officers
didn't just employ several members of the Finders, but appears to have in fact
been a wholly owned subsidiary of the Finders organization. It should also
be noted that the CIA does not, as a general rule-of-thumb, assign the
training of its officers to outside contractors, unless, that is, the `private' firm
utilized in such a capacity is a CIA front." (p. 61) The leader of the Finders group,
Marion Pettie, in a 1998 interview explained that "Going back to World War II,
I kept open house mainly to intelligence people in Washington. OSS people
passing through, things like that." (p. 65) Regarding evidence found regarding
international trafficking of children, the US Custom Service investigator in
his memo stated that he was advised by a member of the Washington D.C.
police that "the investigation into the activity of the Finders had become a CIA
internal matter. The MPD [D.C. police] report has been classified SECRET and
was not available for review." (p. 66). No one was indicted.

McGowan concludes Part I by suggesting that "it is certainly in the realm of
possibility that the high profile child pornography raids in recent years, which
invariably result in relatively few arrests and even fewer prosecutions
and convictions, are not intended to punish the victimizers, but to identify and
compromise them. And it is not inconceivable that the databases being compiled
will be utilized as something of a recruitment list to identify those persons who
have been `preconditioned,' so to speak, for future mind control operations." (p. 68)

McGowan begins Part II with the story of Henry Lee Lucas, a serial killer
who confessed to nearly 600 murders, committed "rape, torture, mutilation,
dismemberment, necrophilia, cannibalism and pedophilia" (p. 71) and who,
oddly enough, was the only death-row inmate in the State of Texas
spared death by Governor George Bush
.
McGowan suggests the reason for this and other odd leniencies enjoyed by
Lucas lies in the possibility that he was an MK-Ultra programmed assassin.

By perpetuating the myth of the lone serial killer, authorities can deflect attention
away from organized groups, cults or intelligence services. McGowan shows
that in nearly all cases, the serial killers most likely had accomplices.
The close ties of serial killers, child pimps and pornographers to people in position
of authority in politics and law enforcement has also been covered up.
Lucas himself is quoted as saying: "No one wants to believe the cult story.
The TV people cut it out. The writers don't write about it." (p. 88)

Part III looks at some recent scandals as well as historical precedents
from the past. Along the way we get a lucid exposition of why the parents of
Jon-Benet Ramsey probably killed her and why Charles Lindbergh probably
killed his "kidnapped" son.

McGowan concludes that the wave of sensationalized serial killings beginning
around 1966 were a domestication of Operation Phoenix, the U.S. program
of mass political assassination in Vietnam. The goal was to shock and frighten
the public into acceptance of police state measures in the United States and
to create a climate of right-wing reaction."

Random Thoughts at the Dawn of the Year 2012
By Dave McGowan
February 13, 2012

I thought I’d begin this rant by sharing some of my thoughts on the historical figure known as Jesus of Nazareth. I think we can all agree that, unlike some of the other subjects I have weighed in on in the past, this is one on which people do not tend to have strongly held points-of-view, so there is little chance that I will offend and alienate readers right off the bat.

So let’s jump right into it then with observation #1: When the likely outcome of an unwed pregnancy is death by stoning, people can be really creative liars.

Nothing in the least bit controversial about that … right? Let’s move on then to observation #2: It is fully understandable why the lie was told, and even why many people in that era might have believed it; what is more difficult to understand is why tens of millions of people around the world still believe it 2,000 years later.

I doubt that I’ve lost anyone yet, so let’s quickly move on to observation #3: Jesus was initially described as coming from a line of men who worked with their hands, which was later interpreted to mean that he was a carpenter. Given though that the primary building materials in the land of his birth were sand and rock, it is far more likely that Joseph and his sons were stone masons. Just saying …

Observation #4: Jesus of Nazareth’s real father was undoubtedly a Roman citizen. Some have speculated that he was the product of rape by one of the notoriously ruthless Roman storm-troopers, but his later actions suggest to this completely impartial observer that it was more likely a consensual coupling and that the father was someone of considerably more importance than a mere soldier.

Observation #5: Jesus was very likely a controlled Roman asset. Just as, nearly two thousand years later, the obviously controlled asset known as Jesse Jackson replaced the slain Martin Luther King, and the equally controlled asset known as Louis Farrakhan replaced the eliminated Malcolm X, so it was that Jesus was maneuvered into position to replace the executed John the Baptist, who had, I’m guessing, become a bit of a problem for the Roman overseers.

The message that the emergent messiah delivered to those living under the brutal hand of those Roman occupiers was, by any rational analysis, exactly the wrong one. It was a message brimming with advice about loving neighbors and turning cheeks … a message that constantly reinforced the notion that it was better to be poor and oppressed than wealthy and powerful, for the poor, you see, were going to spend all eternity in the glorious ‘Kingdom of Heaven,’ while the rich were going to burn in the fires of Hell (unless they were somehow able to steer their camels through the eye of a needle, or something like that).

It was, in other words, a belief system seemingly designed specifically to suppress any thoughts of rebellion amongst the unwashed masses. And the beauty of it was that no one would find out if the fabled Kingdom of Heaven actually existed until it was too late for them to get a refund.

I know what you’re thinking here: “But Dave, didn’t the Romans execute Jesus, and do so in a horrifically brutal and sadistic manner – you know, like in that Mel Gibson torture-porn flick?”

Maybe they did and maybe they didn’t. Even if they did, that would not necessarily prove that Jesus was not a covert Roman operative. Most all assets are expendable if they become more valuable dead than alive. And it’s pretty clear that for the last couple thousand years, Jesus has proven his value as a dead martyr. But was he crucified? I tend to doubt that he was.

Consider that Mr. Nazareth was alone by choice when apprehended. He had supposedly wandered into a garden to gather his thoughts, or some such thing, allowing Roman authorities to conveniently apprehend him quietly and without incident. It was almost as if he had turned himself in, knowing that he was in safe hands. The most likely scenario is that he was replaced with a look-alike at the private palace of Pontius Pilate, where he was taken to supposedly be tried and convicted (so to speak).

Bear in mind that whoever had the misfortune of resembling Jesus needn’t have been all that close of a double. By the time he was beaten, whipped and outfitted with a custom crown of thorns, the battered, bruised and bloody body would undoubtedly have been all but unrecognizable. And following the crucifixion, as we all know, the body, uhmm, disappeared. Because it was, you know, resurrected from the dead. Or because it had to be disposed of before anyone caught on that it wasn’t really Jesus.

“What struck both of us was that there were huge gaps in Houdini’s life story and some puzzling inconsistencies. So we embarked on a journey to discover the real man. Early on, we discovered an important connection that most biographers seemed to miss.”

~ From the Introduction to The Secret Life of Houdini, by William Kalush and Larry Sloman, 2006

As noted earlier in this series, there is considerable debate over the question of whether Harry Houdini ever lived in the Laurel Canyon home known locally as the “Houdini House” (the History Channel’s Brad Meltzer’s Decoded recently aired an episode on Houdini that included a segment filmed at the site, which was unreservedly identified as the former Houdini estate; the series, however, doesn’t appear to be overly concerned with accuracy).

Even if Houdini did live in the home that now lies in ruins, his story would seem to have little relevance here. After all, Harry Houdini, widely considered to be the consummate entertainer of his era, reached the peak of his career long before there was a Laurel Canyon – before there was even that magical place known as Hollywood. What then is there to gain through an examination of the life of Harry Houdini? Quite a bit, as it turns out.

What are generally claimed to be the basic details of Harry Houdini’s life can be found in countless published biographies and web posts. Born Erik Weisz in Budapest, Hungary on March 24, 1874, he was the fourth of seven children born to Rabbi Mayer Samuel Weisz and the former Cecelia Steiner. The family later changed the spelling of their names and Houdini became Ehrich Weiss, known by friends and family as “Ehrie,” which ultimately became “Harry.” His stage surname was an homage to famed French magician Robert Houdin.

In mid-1878, Rabbi Meyer, with his five sons and pregnant wife in tow, set sail for America, arriving on July 3, 1878. The family first put down roots in Appleton, Wisconsin before later moving, in 1887, to New York City. Four years later, Houdini launched his career as a magician, at first performing basic card tricks. He had little success and at times would make ends meet by performing in circus freak shows.

In 1893, he met singer/dancer Wilhelmina Beatrice Rahner, known as “Bess,” who would become both his wife and lifetime stage assistant. The pair though, performing as “The Houdinis,” continued to find success an elusive goal.

To say that Houdini’s fortunes changed in 1899 would be a bit of an understatement. As recounted by Kalush and Sloman, “Within months, he had gone from cheap beer halls and dime museums to the big-time – vaudeville. In one year’s time, he had gone from literally eating rabbits for survival to making what today would equal $45,000 a week.” After finally hitting it big, however, Houdini then did something rather inexplicable – he abruptly sailed off to England to begin a lengthy European tour.

“Why people even said Dr. Crandon committed illegal operations on little children and murdered them.”

~ Mina/Margery Crandon

On April 29, 1911, Houdini debuted his famed Chinese Water Torture Cell escape in Southampton, England, though he had perfected and copyrighted the act well over a year earlier. The inherently dangerous stunt caused quite a sensation: “Just the sight of the apparatus was enough to give you shivers and make you believe, as one critic noted, that you were about to witness a ritual sacrifice.”

Around that same time, Houdini was, for reasons unknown, busily buying mothballed electric chairs at auctions across the country.

In 1913, Houdini’s beloved mother passed away, which apparently resulted in Harry learning some deep family secret. Following her death, Houdini sent the following cryptic note to one of his brothers: “Time heals all wounds, but a long time will have to pass before it will heal the terrible blow which Mother tried to save me from knowing.” The meaning of this rather provocative note remains a mystery. Houdini, by the way, was in Denmark when his mother died, and he requested a delay of her funeral to allow himself time to return to the States. Despite strict prohibitions in Jewish law, the entertainer’s request was, of course, granted.

In December 1914, just a few months after the staged provocation that allegedly triggered World War I, Houdini was summoned to the nation’s capitol for a private audience with then-President Woodrow Wilson. It is anyone’s guess what business the two men discussed, but it probably had little to do with stage tricks.

A year-and-a-half later, on that most notorious of dates, April 20, an estimated 100,000 people gathered in Washington, D.C. to watch Houdini perform a straightjacket escape. Other than for a presidential inauguration, it was said to be the largest crowd ever assembled in downtown Washington. One year later, in April 1917, the US declared war on Germany.

For the duration of the United States’ involvement in the war, Houdini spent a considerable amount of time aiding the war effort, both through fundraising and by frequently visiting the front lines, where he ostensibly went from camp to camp providing entertainment for the troops.

Houdini’s Hollywood career also began just as the US was entering the war. It has often been said that one of his first credits was as a special-effects consultant on the Mysteries of Myra cliffhanger serial, though others have claimed that Houdini had no involvement in the production. Curiously, the real consultant for the project is said to have been occultist/intelligence asset Aleister Crowley.

Houdini’s first feature-length film, The Grim Game, opened to rave reviews. Ensconced in Hollywood, Houdini quickly made friends with mega-stars Charlie Chaplin and Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle, both of whom would soon be caught up in scandals – a career-ending one in Arbuckle’s case. The fledgling actor next began work on Terror Island, filmed largely on Catalina Island. Unlike his feature debut, Island opened to poor reviews, leading a discouraged Houdini to launch his own production company to create his own starring vehicles.

Just after completing Terror Island, in December 1919, Houdini was involved in yet another curious incident. Having injured his ankle performing the water torture escape, he paid a visit to a doctor who examined the performer and pronounced him in imminent “danger of death.” Houdini nevertheless lived on for several more years; the doctor, meanwhile, turned up dead within two weeks.

Thanks P(Denny), that post just made the hairs on the back of neck stand up!

" The tribes that occupied the LA area when the Spanish arrived were the Chumash and the Tongva (later called the Gabrielino), the Chumash being the older and more numerous. While similar, they spoke different languages. The Chumash were a seafaring people and lived along the coast north of Malibu. The Tongva lived in small settlements throughout LA and northern Orange couny, with a substantial settlement at Cahuenga Pass."

"With a little imagination, we can picture a Tongva settlement with reed huts and a communal sweathouse near a little stream at the site of the Chevron station at Sunset and Laurel Canyon Boulevard."
