After finishing the renovations at my new home, it is now moving day! Today the movers are coming to box up and load everything, and tomorrow it all arrives at the new house. I will be largely offline and away from blogging during the move. If everything goes well, I hope to be able to resume my normal schedule after the move is complete. I am not sure if the new cable package includes the Travel Channel, so we will see how it goes in reviewing the upcoming America Unearthed episode when (or if) it debuts online this week.

Good luck with the move, Jason ... At least you won't be living near the chap with the fireworks any longer.

You don't need to see the shows to review them at this point.

Well, Colavito is moving. Isn't that convenient? See, sleazy pseudoskeptics like to try to highlight weak evidence in favor of the paranormal and try to make that weak evidence look like the best evidence that paranormal proponents have, and, then, to make themselves even more sleazy, those same pseudoskeptics like to criticize the other side for doing the same thing - sometimes even when the other side is not, actually, doing it, like some kind of reverse psychology/Jedi mind trick. Actually, it also sounds similar to that Karl Rove political tactic of attacking the opposition on your own weakness. Maybe not quite the same thing, but similar. We see that kind of sleazebucket tactic happening, here. Colavito thinks that the Ancient Aliens show provides weak evidence, so he highlights that show in his criticisms soon after the show airs. However, the show that came on after it, Unidentified, had much stronger evidence in favor of the UFO phenomenon, and Colavito still has not reviewed it. Now, he's moving, so it will be a lot longer before he reviews that show, if ever. The Italian UFO incident that was highlighted in Unidentified was pretty shocking, though most pseudoskeptics will probably just call the Italian government officials liars, or just refuse to believe them, like how some, in the comments sections of this very blog, refused to believe that Luis Elizondo actually was the guy who ran AATIP because others said similar things in the past.

If saying "pseudoskeptic" makes you feel okay then I'm fine with it.

That made no sense at all (as usual). But at least you didn’t attack my use of commas!

How do you know that the UFO was traveling 75 miles per hour?

You gave a link, to a photo on, a publicly accessible, website.

Imbecile cubed: the "disconnect" I refer to is when you say two mutually contradictory things in the same post, not talking about whatever it is you imagine I'm talking about.

Looks like another pseudoskeptic, sleazebucket tactic just happened. Someone hijacked my name. For the record, I posted that first post under the name "MARK," and then someone else took it and posted all of the others, perhaps to try to make me look stupid. I dunno...

Just being on the A&E suite of channels and making scientific and/or historic claims is enough to make any claims laughable. Heflin photo totally staged, look at focus, look at lighting. Garbage. If you saw that driving through Iowa, you were probably dreaming about cherry pie and coffee......and that cute brunette server......

Your stealth image is the image of a 1965 Ford pickup mirror. Thanks for the laugh. I guess instead of dreaming about pie you saw the mirror fly off some random pickup.

Mr. Colavito only occasionally deals with general UFO things -- for the most part his concern is ancient or historical matters (hence why Ancient Aliens, giant studies people, and the like are pretty prominent here).

I hope your move goes smoothly and that you will love your new home. Regarding the Travel Channel and whether it and its ilk are contained in your new tv package: If they're not, they are not worth it to spend a dime more per month to get them.

If it has a basement be sure and check the masonry for engravings with a hooked X. You just may be living on top of a double top secret shrine where the Templars worshipped the Divine Feminine, or something like that.

And check for windows that you can see Venus out of, another sure sign of Templars.

You gotta stand on a chair at a 47 degree angle from the living room window and look out the upper left corner of it, but then BAM, there it is. Chair has to be a megalithic yard, give or take, off the floor for this to work, though.

I’ve got something inside my underpants that’s a megalithic yard long!

Jason will not stoop to the level of reading your half-baked, amateurish blog. He considers you an inept, inconsequential peon not worthy of his valuable time.

Enjoy your new home Jason. Resume writing when you're settled in. The crap TV shows and books can wait.

Moving is not as easy as we think. We face lot of problems during moving house from once place to another just like saving items. Bundle of packaging items like loose fill or void fill https://wellpackeurope.com/loose-fill-void-fill are used to pack or save the things for moving. This thing will save the items from any kind of loss. Protective foam suitscase requires privacy for many types of businesses and are safely useful to transfer their goods. In addition, this suit case allows you to carry delicate and / or regulated goods by ship without violating the safety precautions. Anyways, thanks for sharing the nice piece of stuff with us.
