Well, let's get the obvious stuff out of the way first. Mr. Ramon Watkins, alias Prophet Yahweh, summoner of UFO's (on camera, no less), has come up lame. Yeah, I know, no surprise there. He gave a deadline of July 15 for him to summon a spaceship over Las Vegas. Well, he took until the very last minute to cancel out, giving the excuse "it was the media who broke the covenant." Then, came this little news flash from his PR:
MEDIA ALERT: Prophet Yahweh, Seer Of Yahweh, Will Call Down UFOs For Radio And Television News And Talk Shows In All 50 States Of America, One State At A Time. Beginning August 7, 2005, Prophet Yahweh, Seer of Yahweh, will start his "50 State UFO Summoning Tour 2005." During this time, UFOs will appear on Prophet's signal for radio or television news and talk shows to film and photograph.
Prophet Yahweh is now calling on all radio and television news and talk shows to allow him to come to their cities and summon sightings for them to document.
Don't let Prophet Yahweh be blacklisted because the powers that be don't want humanity to find out that UFOs are real.
Give Prophet a chance to summon real UFOs for your cameras like he did for KTNV ABC TV-13.
Call today and get your station on the list of those Prophet visits and summons sightings for.
And about his failure, he said this:
"The spaceship would never have appeared if I was not filmed calling it down. This is what the space beings wanted. They wanted me captured on film with their spaceship so everyone would know that these beings have chosen me to speak for them and no other person.The space beings kept their end of the bargain by sending a real UFO, on my signal, that was documented. But, Las Vegas media refused to film me calling down the spaceship. That's why it never happened."
Uh huh. I still don't know how he did what he did, but now I just don't care very much. Maybe we'll find out in the future, but he just can't be trusted, no matter how it comes out. Am I surprised? Oh, hell, no. Just disappointed in a turkey.
Now, on to other items.
In the August, 2005, issue of Fortean Times, on page 4, there is an article about a "rooftop madman of Santa Fe" in Argentina. The article says the entity is similar to Springheeled Jack, of Victorian London. The article is in part as follows.
"Eyewitnesses claim he has glowing red eyes, although he never shows his face. He stands 2m (6ft6in) tall, has long wavy hair, dresses entirely in black and wears a cape and a balaclava. He has been seen scaling sheer walls or leaping from one darkened rooftop to another. These phenomenal leaps can be up to 5m (16ft) high and 10m (33ft) long. He howls like a beast or cries like a child as he dances on the rooftops. A resident of the El Arenal district claimed to have fired 17 times at Roofman without the bullets having the least effect....
"During heavy rain on 28 February, Roofman jammed the door of a car containing seven armed vigilantes ready to hunt him down....
"While [a woman] was bathing her youngest nephew, she said, Roofman had pressed his face against the bathroom window, showing his claws menacingly."
According to the article, hundreds of sightings have been reported. Is this entity a variation on Mothman, or is it a metahuman? There are many more questions than answers.
Lastly for the week, there is a report out of the Ukraine, mentioned in Pravda, of a boy who can attract spoons and forks to himself. This little human magnet is named Misha Dulnyavka. Evidently, Misha can feel a force when he is sticking metallic objects to his face. The full article is here:

This boy really does seem to be a metahuman. What is really interesting to me is that so many metas seem to pop up in the former Soviet Union and its old satellites. More than likely, if these people really are metas, it is due to the difference between their cultures and ours.
Well, that's all for this week. Tune in again next week for a new installment.
