George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[SciFiAuthor]

We're on the same page there. As a compliment to George, I have to admire his endurance when he interviews tons of guests whose tales fit the first two slots in your post. That has to be exhausting. Not all of the abductions and channellings can be true, and some of the claims are so outlandish that "outlandish" is too weak of a word to categorize them.

The Dyatlov Pass story is one of the best, and it definitely fits into the third category. The Travis Walton story does too. I share your doubts on most of the abduction claims, but he and his co-workers all passed polygraph tests, and their claims stayed consistent. It's the gold standard.

I agree with everything you said. Travis Walton definitely passed my "Something else . . . " tests. Aspects of Roswell do too, there's a kernel of something in that one. There's something to the animal mutilations also and possibly something to that disturbing Brazilian case from the 80's of a human mutilation. But most of it I don't buy. There's a lot of attention seekers, whackadoos, people wanting to sell books, and mixes thereof. I wouldn't be able to do those interviews, I'd have to call BS.

I did that once. Total mistake. I wrote an article skeptical of a phenomenon that was happening at the time and Lex picked it up for the Coast website. End result was LMH coming at me in email with an axe. I'll never cross her again.

Do you have a link to your article? I understand if you want to keep your privacy. It's a precious and dwindling commodity. Could you comfortably reveal the subject?

I like Linda as an expert and a person, a genuinely dedicated professional. It's not shocking that she's tough. That's not to say that you deserved her response. She just seems like someone who doesn't play games for the sake of public appearances.

I should remain anonymous if for no other reason than I'm having fun with everyone thinking I'm Tommy or whatnot, and it's not right to plug on MV's forum without buying advertising.

I'll reveal the subject though, it was on the "drone" phenomenon she and Whitley were talking about a five or so years ago. It's since fallen flat. Even though I never mentioned her or her reporting on it--I was after the phenomenon itself--something about it got her fired up. I sort of miss those days, I got to interact with lots of coast guests. I've often thought about setting up a blog and having a go at that kind of thing again under a pen name.

As for the phenomenon, those were the days when not everyone was yet aware of the power of photoshop and graphic design programs. It was a case where one or two pictures, pushed virally on youtube and other sites, can either grow a phenomenon and result in a rash of "sightings" or invent a previously non-existent phenomenon that eventually can make it into the mainstream paranormal study genre. We may be seeing that with this black-eyed children business that's been making the rounds. It's an interesting phenomenon in itself, seeing paranormal phenomena going viral just like a marketing ploy would.

I never meant it as an attack on LMH though. She's just an investigative reporter and putting stuff out there for you to decide on. But she is formidable. I'd be scared to meet LMH if she knew who I was after that incident. Think "I'll cut you!"

[Nucky Nolan]

That's a good point about the ostensibly fabricated paranormal memes. "Have you seen this man in your dreams?" Then, you have the black-eyed kids and the Slender Man. The former is based on a real report, though. It's based on an authentic and genuine encounter (if you buy it). As for those drones, it could be that some folks saw some prototypes way back when. Look at the situation now. They're all over the place.

Hmmm... thinking the only thing Dave likes better than dead kid stories, are possessed kid stories.  Hmmm...

If you really want to think yourself into circles, apply John Keel's ideas to it. Even if the phenomenon is fabricated, or a minor phenomenon that grows virally, it could still be that a paranormal force is enabling that and or using it. In other words someone hoaxes a phenomenon and then another phenomenon, a legitimate one, co-opts it and uses that imagery.

I had a Dolphin Dave sighting too -  It was Bee on Bleef!

He's working on sea cow mutilations now.  This is his buddy, Carl.

George researched this topic, specifically Balducci. George has been adding a lot of commentary about it.

[Étouffée]

I turned off MST3K just a few minutes ago to hear this on C2C (I don't know the set-up):

Guest:  "I've never seen a vampire, but I've seen a few IRS agents"

George:  "Also bloodsuckers"

I think George just said something funny?

He just hammered the guest's joke.

I love MVs new avatar. 

I guess he (george) should be by anytime now.

Depending upon my mood, I just call him George, or Georgie, or Schmuckface, or sometimes, my little putz. 

He calls me his "Bottomfeeder."  I am not sure how to take that.

BTW, there is a portal in my avatar picture!

Let's be fair, you said "Whats up, Chicken butt" to greet George and he replied with "Not much bottom feeder".
Which was a pretty funny retort I thought.

[Jesus Undercarriage]

I'm thinking he has a different computer situation. He said he's in St. Louis last night. I'll bet he's probably watching but not logged in, and someone will eventually say something that gets his goat and he breaks down and logs on. I maintain that I think there's more here than just simple PR or corporate motives. I think we're useful, sort of like an unbiased soundboard. I think he also wants to keep his enemies close. I'd certainly find that useful, especially if I was facing a probable drop in Coast Insider subscriptions, which is what I think the real threat is from Art's new show.

I don't think this train wreck is over. If Premiere keeps airing Art's Somewhere in Time shows while he's on the air with the new show, we could see some great stuff. I'm personally hoping for Art to use one of George's Elvis songs as bumper music.

It's 11:11 here, gotta go get my marching orders from the NWO.

Unbiased?

[expat]

Dear George:
Paola is pronounced differently from Paula. Just saying.....

[SciFiAuthor]

Unbiased?

I should have chosen a different word. Let's say "No holds barred criticism". It's flagrantly biased, of course.

[ItsOver]

Sweet! Since the NSA is reading this message, please send me the combinations to the 3 locks you don't see me using anymore. Thanks!

....and if you could tell me what all these keys I have stashed in my desk drawer are for, as well as what happened to all my missing socks.  Thanks in advance!

Yeah, I heard how Prem Rat regularly pays people to call in and praise Jorch ("George, you're doing a tremendous job since taking over for Art!" Etc, etc, ad nauseam), and praise how he has grown the show since Art was more or less fired by the network.

I predict one day somebody will use the word "ironic" correctly.  What Catholic journalist

Perhaps like rain on your wedding day or like ten thousand spoons when all you really need is a knife? 

Yeah, perhaps one day there will be somebody in the media who has looked the word up in the dictionary prior to using it (or titling a song "isn't it ironic...")

Just for you- somebody fixed "ironic" so that it is...

I predict one day somebody will use the word "ironic" correctly. 

This gives me hope that maybe someday people will once again use the term "literally" correctly.  I've recently heard these bad examples:

"I literally bent over backwards." Really?
"It literally rained cats and dogs."  Really??
"He literally had the weight of the world on his shoulders." Really???

I've been wondering about this for ages.  It's so weird how they seem to always start out with and say the same gushing compliment which equates to "You're really doing a great job and we're all grateful for your efforts - keep it up."  (And implied in that is that anyone who disagrees with it must just not get it since everyone else just knows the show is awesome just like it is.) Even the guests sometimes talk like this, as if they get a bonus for saying it.  Why would some guy who's been doing this so long and just got his contract renewed until humanity has colonized the solar system keep getting the same kind of sugary-sweet praise over and over again in so many calls?
