Nolan's Pop Culture Review, 2006!
    Established A.D. 2000, March 19. Now in our seventh calendar year!
Number 321  (Vol. 7, No. 20). This edition is for the week of May 15--21, 2006.

New Direction...Again

OK, everybody, let's just forget the 24 hours or so of Wednesday night/Thursday night's "new" format of PCR. This version is a little closer to the mark. Still fine-tuning, mind you, but finally headed in the right direction, I think!

Anyway, hopefully this will help get a feel for this week's stories at-a-glance without overwhelming new readers or risking the loyalty of older ones. ---Nolan

Please note that Sanford magician Harry Wise will not be performing at Charlie Carlson's summer camp for kids as mentioned in "La Floridiana" in PCR #320 due to conflicts with his schedule. We apologize for any inconvenience this oversight may have caused.
UNIDENTIFIED STATIONARY PULSATING LIGHT IN THE SKY

Attached is a link to the National UFO Reporting Center of the mysterious stationary pulsating light that my brother-in-law Tommy Winnett and I, William Moriaty, saw on April 1, 2006 from his residence at High Rock Lake in Davidson County, North Carolina, outside of Lexington.
