    Great Greer interview! Thanks. I enjoyed it. I especially like the parts where he slightly over does it when he talks about his own importance. Greer is certainly one of the most controversial and divisive people in ufology. He talks a good game. But his humble origins and his...

    Police across USA given new UFO handbook. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-13742439/Police-given-new-UFO-handbook-warn-craft-pose-significant-safety-risks.html Perhaps it’s a practical joke? Or an early April Fools stunt? Or maybe they think there is enough evidence to warrant...

    Lt. General and National Security Advisor, H.R. McMaster on UFOs yesterday… https://www.instagram.com/uap_files/reel/C_m86heNEKm/ Again, when super high level people like McMaster says stuff like this, it has to lend a Little credibility to the topic. He doesn’t say he knows what it is, only...

    Yup. If you are going to do international relief work in the developing world, you must have one of these vests. God bless ‘em. https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/09/1154016

    You know you are getting old when:

    I sometimes find it necessary to remind people that “I was born deep in the middle of the last century.” Such was the case when someone used the word “Rizz” as a verb and I had no idea what they were talking about. Apparently Rizz is short for charisma and to use it as a verb is to charm or...

    Thanks for your vote of confidence. if I may ask, you have neglected to mention your views on the topic.

    Oh, please. basically: 1. Ufo stories are anti-democratic because they promote conspiracy theories; 2. Ufo stories are anti-intellectual because they dismiss science; 3. ufo stories are racist because they misrepresent the stories/legends of indigenous peoples AND because one group of aliens...

    Caught on film: A luminous orb moves across a field and then, suddenly, it transforms into two humanoid beings. Just as suddenly they then turn back into an orb. The film is from Mexico. Crazy stuff.

    You know you are getting old when:

    If you really live in the country and you really haul a lot of stuff, then having a monster truck is fine. But if you live in a congested urban area, share tight parking spaces with 1000 other people, and you work as an accountant in a cubicle, the ownership of a monster truck might just be an...

    So… Lockheed Martin. Credible sources have claimed that Lockheed Martin is in possession of at least one recovered off-world craft. David Grusch has reportedly given the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) the ADDRESS where Lockheed Martin is (or was) storing this crashed UFO. In...

    ^^^^^ When I was in high school, you were either a corvette lover or a corvette hater. Everyone loved the old mustangs, although they were already a little outdated. In my high school there was also a vocal faction who loved the Datsun 240Z. These sportscar fans were in contrast to the...

    What Are You Reading

    I will have to add “Piece of Cake” to my list. Ripping WWII RAF Battle of Britain novel. Most of the reviews that I read were very good. Unfortunately I‘m having trouble inserting a link in this case (keeps rolling over into ads.) Anyway, PoC Fits right into the interests of the Lounge. Thanks!

    Why vintage?

    Oh, absolutely. I remember every mistake I made in my life, every unkind deed, and every stupid thing I’ve said with agonizing clarity. I dread death not for the usual reasons, but because they say you have to sit through a life review where you have to re-experience everything you did. Ugh...

    Why vintage?

    Oh, my magical thinking can sometimes run all over the place. My career was more exciting than it actually was. That dame at the book Store has a thing for me. I’m better looking than the evidence supports. My foreign language skills are fantastic. I fit the wise old man stereotype. The...

    My problem is that I can’t get my magical thinking to the level where I actually believe it.

    The Ernest Hemingway Thread

    Okay. I would definitely go to see this movie. https://www.vulture.com/article/review-hemingways-across-the-river-and-into-the-trees.html I agree that Across the River and into the Trees was the worst thing that Hemingway published in his lifetime. I’ve actually tried to read it twice. The...
