Ah those wily but ingenious Greys. Good to know. Sagging lobes are not a good look for me

... First Hour: Former C2C host Ian Punnett... shares his latest adventures including... getting his identity stolen...

Ian didn't ''get his identity stolen'', George.  He had his wallet and phone stolen at the gas station and had some charges made on his credit card that he didn't have to pay for.

For that I tuned in, listened to the Snorge stumble through whatever it was he was stumbling through before getting to Ian, then heard the same boring story all over again about some lady in Ian's family being murdered 100 years ago or whenever it was. 

We did learn Ian dragged his poor wife away from a job she liked in Minneapolis to Arizona, where she fortunately found a new one she likes, and now he's moved somewhere else leaving her there.

Yes.  People actually sometimes have to move when getting new jobs.  Especially in Ian's case as he could no longer work in radio on air.  It's one of the routine parts of capitalism.

If you weren't locked up in an institution for the mentally hopeless and deranged, you might be aware of this.

Ian's just started teaching at Ohio Northern University in Ada, which surprised me.  I'm familiar with that part of Ohio and it must be a bit of a shock for Ian, after an Arizona metro and Minneapolis.  A very small town, even for a college town, in the heart of Buckeye farm country, very rural.  I'll be surprised if he stays long.

I have nothing personally against Mish Shedlock so I also wish him a happy birthday.

I think I've written here previously though that in his work, he is a total fraud, whether he realizes it or not.  Every new piece of information to him is somehow proof that the United States is about to go into a recession (and he usually predicts it will be a recession greater than the 'great recession' of 2008/2009.)

If inflation is rising, it means the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates and that will trigger a recession. If inflation is falling, it means that demand is dropping and that means a recession is just around the corner. 

The only other possibility is that inflation is stable which rarely ever happens (it almost always fluctuates at least slightly from month to month.)

Both of those statements on inflation rising and falling indicating a potential coming recession can be correct by themselves (neither has to result in a recession).  The problem is, since as I just wrote, that inflation is rarely neither rising nor falling, according to Mish Shedlock the U.S must always be about to go into a recession except for when it's actually in one. 

Obviously that is not the case.  So, I don't know whether Shedlock even realizes it, but his work is a total fraud.

He is correct though that with the decline in business investment that future GDP will continue to slow.  He is correct on that.  On this occasion, his reflexive negative attitude and reality do match up.

Ian wasn't born in Minneapolis.  I'm pretty sure he grew up in a fairly small town.  I don't think he'll have trouble re-adjusting to that.

Ms. Linda pushes some bat-shit crazy crap but I found her discussion with Professor van Dokkum quite interesting, especially with the Webb telescope, a very challenging effort.  You can't dispute she has a passion for what she does and she's definitely a dynamo.

I grew up in very small town, similar to Ada, and no way in hell I could go back, after the big city.  Have you been to Ada, Ohio?  It's very much a one-horse town.  Best wishes to Ian.  I enjoyed him during his C2C hosting days.  He'll do what he wants to do.

No, I've lived in the same suburban city virtually my entire life. However, when I was young it was a relatively rural city of around 50,000 people (it's a big city geographically and had a lot of farmland) and it now has a population of around 200,000.  The mayor of the city when my family moved here was a local farmer named Gil Blair. 

This is off topic for this thread, but with that perspective I can understand how a person does not in any way have to be racist and still be anti immigration, illegal or legal.

I personally don't mind the large increase in population but it did  increase traffic and parking problems, and added all sorts of pressures on public and private services and the promised growth in public revenue from having more people always comes at least several years later while the additional public services are needed immediately.

I don't think it's a coincidence that the politicians on local councils who tend to be most pro immigration are the same councilors who receive the most campaign donations from property developers and real estate agents.

My daughter considered pharmacy school at ONU, until I took her to see the school/town.  Got crossed off her list within minutes of leaving Ada.

Heard LMH mention the Dragonfly telescope in Cloudcroft, NM.  Anyone know if that telescope is physically located at the old USAF/NSF Sunspot Solar Observatory?  Visited there once many years ago while TDY to Holloman, but spent many enjoyable summer evenings at the Lodge, a ski resort in Cloudcroft.  The Lodge had a resident ghost, think her name was Becky, the employees used to tell us about.  One bartender in particular seemed quite sincere about his dealings with her. 

The wingnut she interviewed later in the show who related his Iowa UFO sighting described it as looking "like a square on its side".  Admittedly it's been many years since I took "Plane Geometry", but isn't a square on its side still a square?

If the wingnut mentioned the Dragonfly telescope, he wasn't a wingnut, he was a nitwit. 

Sadly, I don't think anybody will get the reference.

Thanks, I asked because I had looked at that site but did not see "Sunspot" referenced.  The facilities description from that site sounded like what I remember from the observatory tour I took thirty years back.....machine shop, electronics/calibration shop, dorms, etc.  I thought perhaps it had changed hands, and therefore its name.

I wouldn't worry about the old guy but watch out for the Amish folks.

He's a middle-aged guy starting over after having to leave a career because he physically couldn't do it anymore. One he seemed to love but at least was certainly good at (my opinion, anyway).  May not be his dream location but it is the first step on the long road to tenure.

I think it's very sweet how he and his wife are hanging in there together.  Ian has always explained but never complained, whined, bitched or moaned. Unlike some people, Paper*Boy

Remember what likely was a language misunderstanding, mechanical problems, or maybe the "giving a tourist a long ride" in a taxi for a higher fair situation was, to Norry, some major international kidnapping attempt with multiple actors, rigged door handles, and threats against one of the driver's family. He even mentions how he wished the cops showed up and kissed the ground when he got back to the USA. (Hint to Norry, in many places in Mexico bringing in the cops just adds to your problems or final cost.)

lol. First thing I thought when Wingnut said this was a square is 2D so ... If he meant a cube then a cube is still a cube on its side.  I can imagine Linda's look of puzzlement trying to process this. But unlike her usual tenacity in investigation decided not to follow up for clarification. Even for Linda that might have been more High Strangeness than she could handle

Noory used Ian's wallet story for his Life Lock commercial reading.
