Obituary: Ron Perlman, R.I.P.
by L. Neil Smith
It’s possible that this obituary is a trifle 
premature, but I think it may be useful as a thought experiment. I 
first noticed Ron Perlman in the medieval murder mystery Name of 
the Rose. The star was supposed to be Sean Connery, but Perlman 
completely stole the show with his appealing and heartbreaking 
portrayal of the retarded monk Salvatore.

The Deep Breath
by Sarah A. Hoyt
You know where you are. I know where we are.
The first week was …. rough, but now, among our 
side, a strange calm has set in, even as our press shrills ever more 
loudly that we MUST believe them, and idiots run around saying “if 
only we give in to them, they’ll be quiet.”

Do Flying Saucers Exist?
by Sean Gabb
Though what he really said is open to doubt, the 
nuclear physicist Enrico Fermi
gave his name to a short and possibly final argument against the 
existence of intelligent life on other planets. There are 200 billion 
stars in our galaxy alone. 20 billion of these are like our own sun. 
Let us assume that one in five of these has planets—and we find new 
exoplanets every year—and let us assume that one in a hundred of these one in 
five has one planet with liquid water: that gives us 40 million 
earth-like planets. I will not carry on with the assumptions, but it 
seems reasonable that there should be around a hundred thousand other 
advanced civilisations in our galaxy alone.

Don’t Que the Fat Lady Yet
by Sean Gangol
In the last election I predicted correctly that 
Donald Trump would win the presidency. I also predicted that he would 
win again in this current run. In a way, I was right, despite what 
the Democrats and their cronies in the media say. I can’t even begin 
to tell you how I distrust the current vote count in the critical 
swing states, except that there is nothing about it that smells 
right. I should have known that this Vote by Mail scheme was a recipe 
for disaster. Donald Trump and just about every conservative media 
outlet predicted it. There was even a series of books called The 
Fallen Empires written by James Rosone and Miranda Watson, which 
actually predicted a debacle similar to our current situation. Though 
in these books the outcome of the rigged election led to a civil war, 
an invasion from the UN and in all-out war with China. Let us hope 
that it never comes to any of that. Yet, I wanted to be more 
optimistic about the election, since everything else in 2020 has been 
one sour note after another. I suppose election integrity is just too 
much to ask for from the left.

The Land of Ooog
by Paul Bonneau
Some time ago I was living in 
Wyoming, and somewhere in there I decided to write a book, my first 
and only such attempt. Well, it fizzled; I just don't have the drive 
for that sort of thing. However it just occurred to me that people 
might be interested in it, as far as I got with it. Might give some 
chuckles. If any real authors think it's a worthy start, and want to 
run with it, let me know…

The Lull Before the Sh!t Storm
by Jim Davidson
We are not in the middle of a terribly violent 
storm, and for that I am very grateful. Americans are not yet 
fighting one another in street battles in major cities along the 
coasts and in some places in the middle of the country. I, for one, 
continue to believe that is coming.

The Norseman’s Diaries: Post Election Special
by Jeff Fullerton
I came, I saw, I voted.
For Donald John Trump again and against the scourge 
of democratic socialism and the wretched GND they are looking to ram 
down our throats in 2021. And for another 4 years to at least hold 
the left wing tyrants at bay and enjoy life a little longer. And even 
the remote hope that the nation might take a more prosperous turn and 
the radical left is exposed for what it is and the majority of 
Americans come to realize that individual freedom is the solution to 
the human condition and we go on to usher in a new age of expansion 
out into space and secure a future of abundant energy and other 
resources and put asunder forever the possibility of one of those 
dark dystopian futures hallmark of science fiction. That’s what the 
left is out to give us. And why I will do everything I can to keep 
them away from the reigns of power and undermine and derail their 
agenda whenever they get into power.
