owls at Java Love

 two of nine

I have been in Sedona Arizona for a few days staying on a friends couch. I have been catching up on work stuff using the internet at the closest coffee shop to her home. The place is called Java Love. So far I have counted 9 owl tchotchkes. And the first day I was in here one of the hippy baristas had an apron with 4 owls on it. Adding to the synchro-weirdness, I've been writing an essay on Owls and the UFO abductee while drinking coffee here at this little cafe.

  1. I was looking at the T-shirts they sell at their on-line store and couldn't help but notice the alien type imagery in their
    Mountain Biking Kokopelli,Tan Skull Roses and White Skull Hibiscus t-shirt designs.
    I know they are meant to be skulls,but they could almost double as aliens as well,especially the Mountain Biking Kokopelli.
    Then again maybe I've been drinking way too much coffee .-)

  5. Speaking of Owls,Richard Martini is giving a talk about his book
    "Flipside" at "The Owls Lantern"

    It's an interesting book,too.
    Worth reading.
    Could Aliens be involved in these so-called Afterlife experiences...or are they the real McCoy ?

  7. I've been exposed to owl themed art since I was but a wee lad. I'm not sure why owls (other than the fact that they're awesome) were such a prominent theme in decoration in the house I grew up in. My aunt used to cross stitch owls and frame them. My mom explained that she was just really fond of them. I have since inherited several of her owls, along with some of mom's owl knick knacks, including a small crystal owl. When she gave them to me I just smiled and nodded knowingly. Now, how about the late 60's green, yellow, orange and brown owl wallpaper in the kitchen... Mike you should've snatched up those owls! Whenever I travel, if I see one, I give it a home. My favorite is a carved wood one from Canela,Brasil.

  8. Coincidence or synchronicity, I don't know. But, last evening I was watching 'The Woman in Fifth' (Kristin Scott-Thomas & Ethan Hawkes) on Showtime. The movie was full of owls. Owls in the Paris park peering at the protaganist in the moonlight; stuffed toy owls and paper-mached owls in his daughter's room.

    I couldn't help but think of this post, Mike. ;-)
