But that doesn’t seem to be deterring the throngs of people who are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the only person on Earth who can transmit Pleiadian instructions, warnings, and random nuggets of wisdom (“Don’t eat too much candy”) to the non-channeling masses, for only $90. “I’d like to confess my sins to the Pleiadians, so hopefully Barbara functions as a two-way radio,” said John, an Asheville-based tax attorney. “I had doubts she was ‘The One,’ but when you see her channel, you can tell she’s definitely in a trance.” Marciniak’s Saturday workshop and channeling event in Asheville is a remarkable feat in itself, since so many people who claim to Marciniak, above. channel ex- [Photo provided by Marciniak.] traterrestrial intelligent life forms wind up in mental institutions or living shameless lives of fraud and deceit. But Marciniak, as even the Pleiadians themselves frequently confirm via Marciniak, is the real deal. “Why pay good money to listen to some speaker share thoughts about life when those thoughts haven’t sprung straight from the minds of alien life forms?” said Trisha, who’s taking a break from preparing her dissertation for a Ph.D. in neuroscience to attend the alien-thought-channeling session. “I hope the Pleiadians suggest I buy Marciniak’s books, CDs and Web site membership, but who knows what they’ll say, other than Marciniak?” I’d like to thank everyone for coming to my “Stand Against Racism” event!

APD’s Chief Hogan quits; Sends farewell message to officers Friends and co-workers: Following the embarrassment of the evidence room fiasco, it seems obvious that I, as the city’s top law-enforcement officer, must accept full responsibility and retire from the post of Asheville chief of police. I hope that all of you, even the select few with whom I found the occasional disagreement, can remember our time together fondly, with both pride and a sense of humor. Remember all the times I popped sandwich bags behind the new bomb squad trainee? That guy could jump a yard in the air — while crapping himself! Classic! How about my undercover rainbow afro from the panic show? I’m going, “Only a total idiot would buy from me,” and then I kick back to take in the show, but I’m the belle of the drug ball — they wouldn’t leave me alone, the dopes! And my community outreach, with the realistic rubber hand that comes out of my sleeve and sprays fake blood? One guy even fell for that one twice. I’m standing there, going, “No, Bob, it’s my real hand. My 100% real hand, with no fake blood, I absolutely swear. Would I try that on you a second time?” Sucker! When I think of how many times I used to mock Ron Moore when I gave testimony, in court, it just kills me. I mean, here’s this guy who thinks he’s the second coming of Clarence Darrow and I’m answering in my “funny Ron voice” and the jury’s snickering, the defendant is physically shaking with suppressed laughter, and the judge — there wasn’t one of them that didn’t go for that shtick. Good times. Then there was that time I made officers ride Segways on patrol. Hee-larious! From the hot Wiccan strange under the magnolia tree to the craps games in Chicken Alley, there’s nothing I won’t miss about this town. The stickiest buds, the most discreet swinger’s club, the hairiest girls (excuse me, it’s a predilection). So long Asheville, I hardly knew ye; Stay weird, fellow flatfoots. — Chief Make Funny Joke P.S. Assume your phones are bugged for the next six months are so.
