A Tale of Two Merlins OR From Hell to Breakfast
August is here and with it we take a look at two different Merlins! Two Merlins, however, who both have interesting ties to UFOlogy. First seen in our second episode as All Night with the Living Geeks, Ambassador Merlyn Merlin II was a mutton-chopped feature of the Alien Highway movie. Frankly, without his efforts we wouldn’t have that stretch of Highway 375 named The Alien Highway. Then, we take a look at Colonel Donald Gilbert Carpenter who, under the pen name of Merlin Mesmer Merlino, wrote a book called The Treacherous Time Machine! Oh, did we mention Col. Carpenter also authored a USAF textbook with a chapter on UFOs and aliens?
But, best of all, we have a snippet of The Treacherous Time Machine to read for you! This book is so rare that the only copy we could find is in a USAF library in Colorado!! You cannot miss this experience!
