ABOUT GUELYLAND

"One of the smallest , independent kingdoms in the ciberuniverse. Nothing fancy. Population? Just me, myself and my jaguars, my movies and my books (and, at this very moment, YOU). Hided and secret like Skull Island or Opar, the ancients in Guelyland use to read the scrools of a minor god called Voor-Hes.
Most of the treasures of Guelyland are made of paper, plastic and vinyl.Guelyland dreams with expanding in deep more then in surface. The music of Nik Kershaw has been heard here. There are apes, lots of apes in Guelyland. Woody Allen and Bob Hope visit it quite often. Here we love books (the Kingdoms Library is both celebrated and secret) Here we are atheists but very tolerant and think of god a bit too often and much. Guelyland is, the stuff my dreams are made of..."

PEOPLE WITH TASTE. YOU CAN BE ONE OF THEM!!

MY HERO, JAMES RANDI



I hope this guy will live long and prosper, because he makes and amazing job. The former magician James Randi and now worldwide debunker of charlatans, liars and preachers . Since many years ago his fundation is ready to pay a million dollars to anybody that can proof something supernatural. No one has got the money yet.
In the following video he unmask the once famous israeli psychic Uri Geller and the christian healer Popoff (and yes,that's Ricardo Montalbán at Geller's right).



And here The Amazing Randi doing his thing again (at this time he only offered 10,000 dollars)



I hate those damned healers (really sinister guys ,if you ask me) playing and getting money with the hopes of faithfull people be careful because Randi is around!



And finally about horoscopes



I strongly recomend you these two James Randi books (I read them more then once and check them now and then) they are not just a good lecture but a couple of eye openers in case one is in need of that, or just in doubt. Funny how Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke (each one introduce one book), two very rational fellows and probably the most famous science fiction writters have Randi in very good opinion and thank him for his work (in case my word is not good enough).
