My latest blog perfect for the armchair reader who is looking to explore some of the creepiest, quirkiest and by golly downright curious tidbits of knowledge and weirdness found on the web for the curious bunch all you tumblrs and tumblerettes out there....

You will learn about some of America's most intrguing monsters like Frogmen and Gatormen and Goatmen or read about animals that have stood trial or even Mike, the headless chicken- a bird who for 18 months ran around with his head cut off.

So come step inside the circus tent and discover the weird, strange and unusual things that go bump in the night.

Stare at the red dot on this woman’s nose for thirty seconds. Then, look over at a blank white space (a piece of paper or an empty browser tab will do). Did you see the “correct” version of the image? Here’s how it works: stare long enough at an object and the eye’s photoreceptors (particularly the color-sensitive cone cells) lose sensitivity from overstimulation. Divert the eyes to a blank space, and the surrounding cone cells send out a much stronger signal. The brain interprets this discrepancy as looking at the precise opposite colors, in what is known as a ‘negative afterimage.’ Nifty, no?
