Wait for me - Hadestown
Wilbur drops to his knees, staring as the light from the portal slowly fades out. He can still see John, can see him look back. “No… no- John!” He jumps to his feet, about to leap through the portal himself. He’s caught by Xander and Schaeffer. He fights against them. “John, no!”
“He’s gone, Wil,” Xander says, struggling to hold the colonel back. “We can’t-”
By the time Wilbur finally breaks out of their hold, the light has completely gone, the portal powered down. His chest heaves, trying to catch his breath. He blinks away tears. “... I’m getting him back.”

Attitude, gratitude, and service before self. If you have the right attitude, you can do anything. If your not grateful for what you have, you don’t deserve to have it. And always put the service of others before yourself.   Colonel Gail Halvorsen , in an interview with Sherry Schaefer (July/Aug. 2019 issue Heritage Iron Magazine)

Published Statements on Unidentified Flying Objects (#2)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A list of notable published statements on UFOs, part 2 ​Transcribed below:
Published Statements on Unidentified Flying Objects Sen. Barry Goldwater, a jet-flying AF Reserve Colonel: "Flying saucers -- unidentified flying objects -- or whatever you call them, are real." Rear Adm. D.S. Fahrney, Ret., former Navy missile chief: "Reliable reports indicate there are objects coming into our atmosphere at very high speeds. The way they change position would indicate their motion is directed." Clare Booth Luce, former Ambassador to Italy. who with many others sighted a UFO at Rome: "I did see an object, I don't know what it was. " Capt. W.B. Nash, Pan American Airways, who with his co-pilot saw eight huge discs maneuver below their airliner: "I believe they were controlled machines from outer space." Maj. L.F. Baker, USAF, who with other AF witnesses saw six UFOs: "They were circular, shiny like spun aluminum. They changed course instantaneously." Capt. Jas. Howard, British trans-Atlantic pilot, who with crew and 12 passengers saw a huge UFO and six small ones: "It must have been a space ship." Hermann Oberth, noted rocket and space-travel authority: "I believe the flying saucers come from other worlds." Capt. Robert Adickes, TWA pilot, who with crew and seven passengers, saw a glowing UFO pace their airliner: "Before then, I wasn't convinced. Now I know they (flying saucers) do exist." Dr. Clyde W. Tombaugh, discoverer of the planet Pluto, chief of the armed services search for natural satellites, who has sighted UFOs: "These things, which do appear to be directed, are unlike any other phenomena I ever observed... Other stars in our galaxy may have hundreds of thousands of inhabitable worlds. Races on these worlds may have been able to utilize the tremendous amounts of power required to bridge the space between the stars." Flight Lt. J.R. Salandin, RAF, whose jet almost collided with a disc-shaped, turreted object: "It looked metallic. It was travelling at tremendous speed." Dr. J.C. Bartlett, Jr., noted Baltimore astronomer who has sighted both disc-shaped and rocket-shaped UFOs: "It is not impossible they come from another planet." Cdr. R. W. Percy, USNR, Ret., electronics engineer for the FCC: "I personally believe UFOs are spaceships from other, more advanced planets." Dr. Carl Jung, famed psychologist, in writing NICAP Director Donald E. Keyhoe: " I am a NICAP subscriber. I am grateful for all the courageous things you have done in elucidating the thorny problem of UFO reality. I do not possess sufficient evidence which would enable me to draw definite conclusions. The evidence available, however, is convincing enough to arouse a continuous and fervent interest. If it is true the AAF (American Air Force) withholds telltaling facts then one can only say this is the most unpsychological and stupid policy one could invent...The public ought to be told the truth." Col. Frank Milani, Director, Baltimore Civil Defense, who has sighted UFOs: "It is a calculated risk to assume the so-called saucers do not constitute a threat to the welfare and security of our citizens. We are given to believe they are not hostile but information on UFOs is classified." Capt. Richard Case, American Airlines, who with other pilots and thousands of citizens saw a large UFO over Indianapolis: "It was a controlled craft going three times faster than we were." Albert M. Chop. former AF official handling UFO information: "One thing is absolutely certain. We're being watched by beings from outer space." Rep. William H. Ayres, Ohio: "Congressional investigations are being held on the problem of UFOs. Most of the material is classified; hearing are never printed." Statement by NICAP Board Members Vice Adm. R.H. Hillekoetter, ret., former Director, Central Intelligence Agency; Maj. Dewey Fournet, USAF Reserve, former Pentagon monitor of UFO project; Rev. Albert Baller, Greenfield Mass.; Frank Edwards, noted newscaster; Dr. Marcus Bach, Univ. of Iowa; Rear Adm. H.B. Knowles, ret,; Col. R.B Emerson, US Army Reserve; and Prof. Charles A. Maney, Defiance University: "From evidence in NICAP's possession, it is clear the Air Force is still withholding information, including sighting reports, on UFOs." Published Statements on the Question of Other Worlds Dr. Harlow Shapley, former Director, Harvard Observatory: "We must now accept it as inevitable -- there are other worlds with thinking beings." Dr. Harold C. Urey, member, Mars Committee, former commissioner of the Atomic Energy Commission: "It is exceedingly probable there is other life in the universe more intelligent than ours." Typical Witnesses in UFO Sightings Col. D.J Blakeslee, USAF Wing Commander; USAF pilots, Maj. J.B. Smith. Lieuts. D.J. Hemer, Roy L. Jones, D.C. Brigham, Wm. Patterson, D.A. Swimley, H.G.

Predator (1987) - Episode 138 - Decades of Horror 1980s
  "If it bleeds, we can kill it!" One of the many famous lines in Predator (1987) spoken by the film's iconic star Arnold Schwarzenegger. The design of the alien hunter from FX maestro Stan Winston is one of the most recognizable creatures in cinematic history! Doc Rotten and Christopher G. Moore revisit the classic sci-fi/action/horror fils from director John McTiernan, the genius behind Die Hard.
Decades of Horror 1980s Episode 138 – Predator (1987)
Released in 1987, Predator introduced horror fans to a brand new alien threat. No E.T. friendly, extraterrestrial love here, folks. This alien is out to hunt and kill its prey: humans. A gigantic hit when released due to its star-studded macho cast, the film registered with audiences and solidified Schwarzenegger's rising star power status. Alongside Schwarzenegger, the film cast Carl Weathers, Bill Duke, Jesse Ventura, Sonny Landham, Richard Chaves, and Shane Black as a group of mercenaries on a mission in Central America when they encounter a creature bigger and more powerful than they are. The Predator is played by Kevin Peter Hall who also played Bigfoot in Harry and the Hendersons and the alien in Without Warning.
Christopher G. Moore and Doc Rotten revisit Predator in time for the upcoming blockbuster film The Predator (2018) directed by Shane Black, who is featured in the 1987 original. The Grue-Crew find the film holding up remarkably well due to Schwarzenegger (and his co-stars) and the fantastic creature design by Stan Winston. Winston, interestingly, came into the feature late after the first designs didn't live up -- those designs were to be worn by Jean-Claude Van Damme who quit the film after only two days. "Get to the chopper!"
A team of special force ops, led by a tough but fair soldier, Major "Dutch" Schaefer, are ordered to assist CIA man, Colonel Al Dillon, on a rescue mission for potential survivors of a Helicopter downed over remote South American jungle. Not long after they land, Dutch and his team discover that they have been sent in under false pretenses. This deception turns out to be the least of their worries though, when they find themselves being methodically hunted by something not of this world.

If you don't mind me sending another: Tree on the Hill from The Lightning Thief Musical
“It’s not your fault, John,” Schaeffer says, her usually stern voice soft.
Xander nods in agreement, reaching for his friend. “You’re being too-”
“I’m not being too hard on myself!” John shouts as he pulls back. “I knew this was a bad idea! I knew and I didn’t say anything because everyone was so goddamn excited about what it could mean for the future! I could have saved him! He would still be here if I had just-!”
“Colonel Cross made his choice,” Schaeffer tells him grimly. “I doubt you would have-”
Screaming, John easily knocks over a filing cabinet.

The Green Apple Incident - A Jade Smythe Story
A loud, shrill shrieking alarm makes Jade jerk from their sleep. Groaning, they reach for their phone, desperate to turn the noise off. They finally get it off before sighing heavily into their pillow. Stumbling out of bed, they walk around the makeshift wall of storage cubbies blocking off their bed from the rest of the studio apartment.
As they step onto the tiled section of the kitchen, they flip on a light. On the counter sits a shiny green apple with a yellow sticky note stuck to it. Jade grins as they pick up the note, reading the spiky handwriting that reads ‘have a great day at work! -Dad’
Soon, they’re parking their beat up 2002 black Ford Taurus Wagon. They stare at their lunchbox for several moments before grabbing it and climbing out of their vehicle.
Jade shifts awkwardly in their uniform as they walk up to the building. The purple lunch box hangs from their shoulder as they walk up to the doors of PEIP HQ. They swipe their badge before pressing their thumb against the sensor that scans their print. A series of beeps sounds off before a robotic voice greets, “Welcome, Agent Smythe.”
“Good morning, PEIP-bot,” they respond as the doors slide open. They walk inside, nodding to the pair of agents stationed in the entryway. “Hey Connor, hey Dexter.”
“Hey Jade,” Connor greets with a wave. He looks bored, a cup of coffee cradled in his hands. He rubs at his cheek with a groan.
Dexter’s eyes seem to twinkle as he salutes. “Good morning, Jade!” He steps up to the counter he and Connor are stationed behind. “Your bag, please, so I can check for contraband.”
Their boots squeak as they scuff the floor. Jade grimaces as they grab the strap of their lunch box. “Come on, Dex, it’s me. Do you really need to check it?”
“It’s the general’s rule,” Dexter says, his tone turning serious. His warm brown eyes narrow slightly. “Please don’t make this difficult, Jade. It’s just a quick peek.”
Their hand tightens in panic.
“Oh, just let them go,” Connor comments with a roll of his eyes. “If you ask me, ol’ Johnny Macs is just paranoid.” He grabs Dexter by the back of his uniform and pulls him down into his chair again. “Have a good day, Jade.”
“You too.” Relief sweeps through Jade as they walk past the checkpoint. A short while later, they’re sitting at their desk, their lunchbox stashed in the mini fridge under their desk. Cracking their neck, they log into their computer and get to work.
About an hour later, a small rumble shakes the building. Jade’s head snaps up from their computer to look around in concern. The other agents do the same, similar expression of worry and confusion on their faces. “Probably just an earthquake,” someone suggests.
Murmurs of agreement spread through the room, though they’re followed by unease. Hesitantly, Jade reaches for their keyboard again. They’ve barely touched it when an alarm comes blaring through the speakers in the room: Warning, ERT 1 report to the Checkerboard Lab. Repeat, ERT 1 report to the Checkerboard Lab. Impending breach expected
Jade’s heart drops into their stomach. A couple agents stand from their desk and sprint for the door, apparently part of the response team that was called for. As they run out, Colonel Schaefer walks in, her features set in a stern scowl. “Keep working,” she calls out to the room at large. She surveys them for a moment, ensuring they turn back to their monitors, before marching out of the room again.
Shortly before lunch, the alarm finally stops. A soothing bell sound comes through the speakers instead now: Crisis averted. Repeat, crisis averted.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Jade leans back in their chair. A high stress situation like that definitely warrants an early lunch. They reach under the desk to open their mini fridge and take out their lunch box.
They’ve barely set it on the desktop when the room goes oddly silent. Jade, feeling eyes on them, stiffens. Slowly, they swivel around to see a man with curly dark blonde hair, pulled back in a ponytail under his beret, storming towards them. Following close behind him is Xander Lee. Xander pulls off his sunglasses when they get closer. “Agent Smythe, we-”
“I just spoke to Connor and Dexter. You were the only person whose bag they didn’t search this morning,” the man says, his frown still prominent behind his neatly kept beard. He reaches for Jade’s lunchbox, only for them to snatch it away. His blue eyes seem icy. “Hand it over, Jade. That’s an order.”
“Who the fuck are you?” Jade demands.
They can hear the collective gasp of everyone else in the room at their response.
The man straightens up to his full height. “I’m General John MacNamara.”
Heat floods Jade’s face. They wish they would just sink into the floor. Shamefully, they hand their bag over to the general. He all but slams it on a nearby table before unzipping it. One by one, he pulls out the contents: a bottle of Mountain Dew Voltage; a snack size bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, a small container of almonds, and, finally, a sandwich.
MacNamara frowns as he examines the contents. “What type of sandwich is this?”
“Um, peanut butter,” Jade asks, watching as the general opens one of the pouches on his vest and pulls out a pair of black disposable vinyl exam gloves. He dons them before opening the plastic bag and taking out the sandwich. He examines it carefully before carefully peeling back the top slice of bread.
There, within the gooey spread of peanut butter, lie slices of apple, their green skins bright even against the color of the peanut butter.
Jade shrinks back into their chair as the general silently closes the sandwich and places it into the bag again. As his gloved fingers press the seal on the bag closed again, he says, “You were informed at orientation by Xander that green apples are strictly prohibited on PEIP property, were you not?” The chill of his tone makes Jade shiver.
“I… yes,” Jade answers sheepishly.
“I see.” MacNamara carefully places everything except the sandwich back into the lunchbox. “What made you think you were exempt from that rule?”
Jade lowers their head. No one looks at them. Everyone else purposefully the other way. “I… My dad left it for me. I just wanted to have it for lunch,” they admit softly.
John doesn’t say anything, just passes the sandwich to Xander, who promptly leaves to dispose of it. “I appreciate the honesty and sentiment. You did, however, just put the lives of everyone at risk.” He carefully peels off the gloves and drops them into the trash can by Jade’s desk.
For a long moment, he considers them. There’s something in his eyes Jade can’t quite place. “You’ll have a disciplinary meeting at 1300 hours in my office.” Seeing them tense, he chuckles slightly. “Relax, it’ll just be a warning. This time.” His tone hardens. “I can’t say the same for if it happens again.”
“Yes sir,” Jade says meekly.

MacNamara: I can't look at you right now.
Xander, tearfully: Then you should know I'm crying.
MacNamara: I forgive you, but only to escape the established pattern of self righteous indignation followed by immediate comeuppance.
Schaefer: General MacNamara-
MacNamara: Okay, I guess it's happening anyways: you broke my heart. Continue.
