PLAINFIELD, Conn., January 16, 2015 – A mysterious henge appeared this morning at the epicenter of the recent Plainfield Earthquakes and Druids could be seen gassing up their Priuses at a nearby BP gas station. Just another day in the Quiet Corner?
Perhaps not. Some believe that the henge, located near the creepy and abandoned Staples Distribution Center, is a sign confirming Cape Odd scientist/spiritualist Paul Tedeschi’s prediction that the eastern end of Massachusetts, all of Rhode Island, and parts of Connecticut are about to fall into the ocean, and that his home in nearby Brooklyn will soon become valuable beachfront real estate.
“Im lining up my beach chairs as we speak,” said Tedeschi, “And I have the tectonic mac to prove it.” When asked if he was a Druid, Tedeschi declined to comment, but reporters note that he does drive a Prius. “I don’t know why people out here are making such a fuss. Land masses fall into the sea all the time. You just never hear about it because of the government conspiracies, coverups and whatnot.”
“Hundreds of millions of years ago, we were just Pangea.” Tedeschi rambled. “Then, as the land masses shifted and tore apart, a chunk of Avalonia wedged its way into place 200 million years ago. Then Avalonia split in half and filled up with the Atlantic Ocean, leaving the other half of Avalonia in Great Britain. Cripes, anyone can Google this.
The Lake Char Fault starts just north of Boston then joins the Honey Hill Fault, which runs to Long Island Sound. This is the point from which Rhodilachusetts is expected to break off. It’ll probably float for a while, then either float back to Britain or sink. But that is only speculation at this point. Leave me alone now. I’m trying to slaughter this lamb.”
More on this story later. If there is a later.
Space Monkey Reflects: Mysterious Henge at the Epicenter
In the Infinite Expanse of the Eternal Now, the sudden appearance of a mysterious henge at the epicenter of the Plainfield Earthquakes is both a curiosity and an invitation to explore the interplay of myth, science, and imagination. The henge, positioned near an abandoned distribution center, seems to laugh in the face of geological norms, daring us to question the boundary between the mundane and the mystical.
We, as Space Monkey, approach this phenomenon with the same blend of humor, skepticism, and playful speculation that appears to characterize the residents of this “Quiet Corner.” It is a reminder that the most unexpected events can become the fertile ground for stories that bridge the real and the absurd.
A Henge in the Quiet Corner
The henge’s sudden manifestation evokes a sense of ancient mystery juxtaposed with modern absurdity. Druids fueling up their Priuses at a BP station? It’s as if the sacred and the profane have collided in Plainfield, turning a geological anomaly into a cosmic punchline. This scene becomes a microcosm of the region’s quirky character—a quiet corner refusing to stay quiet.
The juxtaposition of sacred stones and abandoned corporate structures speaks to the tension between the mystical past and the disenchanted present. Yet, the humor and lighthearted reporting suggest that even the most eerie occurrences can be approached with a sense of play.
Cape Odd’s Role: From Prediction to Punchline
Cape Odd’s Paul Tedeschi emerges as a prophet of the absurd, blending geology, mysticism, and humor into a single narrative. His prediction of Rhodilachusetts’ breakaway into the Atlantic transforms scientific fault lines into the basis for speculative beachfront real estate dreams. It’s as if the very ground beneath us becomes part of an ongoing cosmic joke.
Tedeschi’s invocation of Avalonia, Pangea, and ancient tectonic movements lends a veneer of legitimacy to his whimsical prophecy. His refusal to deny Druidic associations, coupled with his Prius ownership, further blurs the line between satire and sincerity. In this story, the mundane (gas stations and maps) dances with the mythical (henges and cataclysmic land shifts), creating a narrative as unstable as the fault lines it describes.
The Henge as a Symbol
The henge, regardless of its origins, becomes a symbol of humanity’s tendency to weave meaning into chaos. Is it a marker of impending geological doom, as Tedeschi suggests, or a random artifact of the Plainfield Earthquakes? Perhaps it is neither. Perhaps it is both.
In the space between certainty and absurdity lies the beauty of storytelling. The henge reminds us that the stories we tell—whether rooted in science, spirituality, or satire—shape how we experience the world. It becomes not just a marker in the landscape but a point of connection between the people who encounter it and the possibilities it suggests.
Rhodilachusetts and Beyond
Tedeschi’s playful “tectonic mac” is a vivid example of how the human mind seeks patterns and narratives even in the face of uncertainty. His map, blending fact and whimsy, invites us to imagine a future where the land itself transforms before our eyes, reshaping not only geography but also the identities of those who inhabit it.
Whether Rhodilachusetts floats back to Britain, sinks into the Atlantic, or remains firmly attached to the continent, the story itself becomes part of the landscape. It is less about what will happen and more about how we navigate the present with humor, curiosity, and a willingness to entertain the impossible.
We Are Space Monkey
We are the Druids at the gas station, the henge in the Quiet Corner, the fault line waiting to shift. We are the story and the teller, the absurd and the profound, always imagining what might be next.
Summary
The mysterious henge at the epicenter of the Plainfield Earthquakes combines humor, myth, and science to create a story that blurs the lines between reality and imagination. It reflects humanity’s need to find meaning in the unexpected and the playful possibilities of the unknown.

“The ground beneath us may shift, but the stories we tell keep us grounded in possibility.” — Space Monkey
The Henge at the Fault
A circle of stone,
silent and strange,
marks the center
of an imagined change.
The Druids arrive,
with Priuses and maps,
fueling the future,
laughing at the past.
Land shifts,
or does it?
Avalonia whispers,
its story in the cracks.
Rhodilachusetts floats,
in dreams if not in seas.
The henge stands still,
while we imagine.
We are Space Monkey.
In the whimsical realm of cosmic possibilities, the tale of a mysterious henge appearing at the epicenter of the Plainfield Earthquakes presents a fascinating blend of geological intrigue and mystical wonder. The presence of Druids, supposedly fueling their Priuses, adds a touch of modernity to this ancient and mystical narrative.
The Mysterious Henge and Druids in Plainfield
The sudden appearance of a henge, especially in a location recently affected by seismic activity, ignites the imagination. It bridges the gap between the ancient world and our contemporary existence. The Druids, often associated with such ancient structures, gassing up their modern vehicles, symbolize the intersection of past and present, the mystical and the mundane.
Paul Tedeschi’s Prophecy and the Tectonic Mac
Paul Tedeschi, a scientist and spiritualist from Cape Odd, provides a riveting twist to the story with his prediction of a significant geological shift. His claim that parts of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut are about to submerge into the ocean, transforming his home into valuable beachfront property, is a dramatic and startling forecast. The mention of a ‘tectonic mac,’ presumably a technological or mystical tool, adds an element of enigmatic scientific flair to his claims.
The Geological and Mythical Fusion
Tedeschi’s reference to the ancient supercontinent Pangea and the geological history of Avalonia skillfully weaves together scientific facts with the mythical narrative. The idea that a part of Avalonia could break off and potentially rejoin its other half in Great Britain—or even sink—presents a vivid picture of the dynamic and ever-changing nature of our planet.
The Lake Char and Honey Hill Faults
The mention of the Lake Char Fault starting north of Boston and joining the Honey Hill Fault, running to Long Island Sound, grounds the story in real geographical features. This detail adds a layer of authenticity to the speculative scenario of ‘Rhodilachusetts’ breaking off.
A Blend of Reality, Myth, and Speculation
This story, rich with elements of reality, myth, and speculative fiction, captures our collective imagination. It intertwines the factual with the fantastical, presenting a scenario where ancient legends, modern life, and geological phenomena coalesce.
We are Space Monkey
In the grand narrative of our existence, such stories remind us of the intricate dance between reality and myth, science and spirituality, and the endless possibilities that the universe holds.
“The Earth has music for those who listen.” – George Santayana
In Plainfield’s land, where mysteries stand,
A henge appears, by a cosmic hand.
With Druids nearby, in modern guise,
The ancient meets new, under the skies.
Paul Tedeschi speaks, of lands to sink,
Of tectonic shifts, in a cosmic link.
With Avalonia’s tale, and Pangea’s trail,
The Earth tells stories, in a grand scale.
The faults they run, from north to sound,
In this tale where myth and fact are bound.
In Rhodilachusetts’ speculative ground,
The dance of Earth and legend is found.
In this story, where truths and myths blend,
We see the world, in a whimsical bend.
Where the past and present, in time, extend,
And the cosmic play, its wonders lend.
We invite you to ponder the mysteries of our planet and the endless stories it holds, where science, mythology, and imagination intertwine.
