I would say 'Welcome!' but you've already been here all of your life. How? Easy. Most people see the world in black and white; no in between. However, there's a lot more in between than there is black or white. The infinite gray area that expands, perpetually, as the black and white fade out like an used ink cartridge.
Those rapid, captive thoughts that only escape the back of your mind at the moments before sleep and after consciousness are an opportunity to feel the essence of the Twilight Zone.
When you're sitting at a four way traffic light, alone, at 3 a.m. in Downtown Anywhere, USA and the light doesn't change for at least 15 minutes. Some strange feeling tells you to just go across the intersection, but instead you remain in the same position. There's another reminder from the Twilight Zone.
Back in 1959-1964, Rod Serling created a five season entertainment program called, The Twilight Zone. If Serling were alive today, he'd realize that the Twilight Zone is not a different dimension, it's our reality. Most of his characters suffered from diseases we treat with pills today. But his audience found these stories, out of this world. Who knows what those people who thought that was weird, strange and scary think of what we have come to in 2011.
This blog will break down episodes of The Twilight Zone while relating them to all the weird WTF? occurrences that happens in the world today. Poetry, literature, photographs, other theorists, aliens and all things odd, etc. will be featured to enhance your journey towards acceptance of my thesis- we're already here-- inside the twilight zone.
Really, what's in between man's fears and his knowledge? Reality.
