X-Files Notes: Alex Krycek Is Not from Tunguska
Sena and I used to watch the X-Files back in the 1990s, but I must have missed quite a few of them. My memory is at best spotty for a lot of episodes, probably because I was on call a lot as a resident and as a psychiatry faculty member at the hospital. The other…

Okay, More Drain Tile Grate Flipping
Well, on Saturday morning we noticed that a different drain tile grate was flipped in our back yard. Same problem as the other one that I blogged about last year. I put the wormhole gear clamp back on the other one and so far, so good. Now I’m considering getting another clamp for the other…

Sena Returning New Coffee Maker Today Already!
Well, Sena’s returning the new Mecity coffee maker today. Go figure, we just got it. There’s really nothing wrong with how it works. It’s a little tough to remove the pod after the brewing is done. It would be nice to have a machine able to make a full mug of coffee, which would mean…

Parody vs Satire on Old X-File Show
I see Dr. George Dawson blogged about an interesting movie he saw. And Dr. H. Steven Moffic watched an interesting play the other day. I like science fiction. I watched an old X-File show the other night, “War of the Coprophages.” You can read a Wikipedia article for a nice summary of the plot and…

The Drain Grate Flipper is Back
Some of you may remember last year’s drain grate flipping saga in which something removed one of our back yard tile drain grates nearly every day for a while last fall. It’s happening again! This time it occurred during a pretty fierce heat wave which is still ongoing. It was so hot, the videos and…

Heat Joke Alert!
OK, I got sort of a Dad joke about the heat. It’s about 106 degrees now with the heat index in Iowa City. Q: What do you call a flying saucer on a really hot day? A: An Unidentified Frying Object Believe it or not, I couldn’t find this joke anywhere on the internet. So…

Maybe an Iowa State Fair Contest Would Settle the Score in UFO Flap
I just saw the news story about the whistleblower David Grusch a couple days ago. Apparently, Mr. Grusch’s personal medical record was obtained through the state of Virginia’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and released to the public. He was one of three people who testified recently at the House Oversight Committee hearing on Unidentified…

Tough TV Choices
I have a couple of choices for TV shows tonight. I could watch an X-Files rerun on the Comet network or the “season finale” of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch. Sena and I have been watching the X-Files reruns the last few nights. We didn’t know it was on until Sena happened to catch a…

The Empire Fires Back
I saw this reply tweet posted to the web. It was the reply of Sean Kirkpatrick, PhD, the director of the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) in reply to the testimony of the witnesses at the House Committee’s UAP hearing on July 27, 2023. I’m not sure we’ll hear much more about it.

House Oversight Committee UAP Hearing Today
We watched the House Oversight Committee UAP Hearing today and it was one of the most interesting presentations we’ve seen in a long while. I make fun of the topic a lot but I thought all the witnesses were credible. In my opinion, the most credible witness today was retired Commander David Fravor of the…
