The Olsen twins

This matter was brought up in a comment before now, and I am unable to locate it. It is in regards to Barbara Olsen, who was allegedly killed on 9/11/2001 when the aircraft she was on, American Airlines Flight 77, crashed into the Pentagon. I seem to recall that she was able to carry on a phone conversation until the moment of impact.

I am a no-planer, and so do not believe her story or her ending. She was 45 years old in 2001, and so would be 69 now. I will play with some photographs beneath the fold here, but note that her husband, Ted Olsen, remarried (several times), Barbara his third wife. He married his fourth wife, Lady Booth Olsen, in 2006, he 66 and she 45. I was surprised to find that he died just last week, on 11/13/2024 at the age of 84. Lady Booth Olsen is currently 63.

All very interesting, but the question is, what became of Barbara Olsen? The implication of the post and photos I saw was that she is one and the same person, both as Barbara Olsen, and Lady Booth Olsen. I have examined the photos, and my conclusion is that …

My Notable Death Dossier #1

As someone over 60, I find myself suddenly interested in browsing obituaries. However, with the decline of newspapers, my only source is the “Notable Deaths” page on Wikipedia. Inevitably, my curiosity leads me to uncover some surprising and unusual details, so I thought I’d share my recent discoveries here.

An open letter to Mike Williams, Sage of Quay

Mike Williams is also known (musically, I think) as Sage of Quay, and runs a website by that name. He puts out videos, and since I have been traveling, suffering jet lag and that sort of thing, I’ve watched a few of them. They are quite long, and in my opinion, very good. I will link to some of them at the end, but not run them here.

Generally when someone does an “open letter”, get ready for a takedown. That is not my purpose. Mike does a few common themes which cause me to avoid him, such as the idea that Paul McCartney died in 1966 and was replaced by a person known as Billy Shears. He and I have been around the block on that, and I am not going to rehash, as it serves no purpose. The whole of the McCartney business was covered here in my post, Sir Faul. His side, my side, and a group that first performed on Ed Sullivan in 1962, 62 years ago!

Martin Luther King … hidden in plain sight

It’s not every day this happens, but when it does, my heart soars like a hawk. I am going to reprint some comments from You Can Call Me Ray. Since we are leaving on a trip Monday morning, I don’t have time to flesh this out, study the timelines, do multiple face chops. But I am confident that with the face chop above and all of the circumstantial evidence supplied by Ray, that we can make a strong case that Martin Luther King, Jr., who readers of this blog know did not die April 4, 1968, simply became someone else.  Hopefully Ray will be around to flesh it out in the comments. I could wait until our return later in September, but truth is, I can’t wait to publish this. I am waiting on Ray’s permission to proceed. (By the way, face chops like the one above are hard to come by – you’d be surprised how rare it is to find the subjects looking directly at the camera, which is why I elected to use the one of Don King with a cigar in his mouth.)

Memory Lane: The Death of Eva Perón

María Eva Duarte de Perón, popularly known as Evita, was an early rock star of sorts, the Princess Diana of her time, the late 1940s-early 50s. She was world famous. She was (1946-forward) the First Lady of Argentina by way of her 1945 marriage to Juan Perón, who was elected president in 1946. Evita is said to have died on July 26, 1952.

This post is a bit of a rehash of my work surrounding Evita. I am quite certain her 1952 death was fake. I posted as much on my blog, PieceofMindful, and walked right in on the greatest shock of my life thereafter. How’s that for a tease?

A conversation with my dentist

I’ll recount this as faithfully as I can and with a caveat: I was not about to ‘clue him in’ on anything I might know or suspect. That does no good, and anyway, his own curiosity has brought him quite a ways farther than most Americans. I like the guy, and he is a smart man. It so happened I was having a crown put in place, and that involved a lot of sanding and stuff to make sure it fit properly, which is why my mouth was not full of dental equipment as we spoke.

Dr. D: “Did you happen to watch news over the weekend? There was an assassination attempt on Trump.”

M: “I did! Some odd stuff going on there. Did you notice that the Secret Service stood him up, making him a target even as there was, as far as anyone knew, shooters about?”

There were real people on a phantom flight?

James Burrows, now 83 years old, is indeed a “legendary director”, having directed Taxi, Cheers, Frasier, Friends and Will & Grace and other stuff. He wrote a book, a fun one about his professional years and all the people he came to know and work with. Normally I would not keep a book like that, called Directed by James Burrows. But I kept it for sake of the following paragraph on page 218

David Angell, God rest his soul, was a wonderful man. He was always teased about how he could write so funny and still be the dullest person in the room. David and his wife, Lynn, had been in Cape Cod and were flying back to Los Angeles for the Emmys (as executive producer of Frasier, he had been nominated  for Best Comedy Series) when their plane, Flight 11, was taken over by terrorists during the 9/11 attacks and crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. We had a memorial ceremony for him at Paramount. Steve Weber, who worked closely with David on Wings, said “I can only imagine the last moments, when David and Lynn looked into each other’s eyes and held one another, knowing what was going to happen.” Continue reading “There were real people on a phantom flight?”

MM 911 Thoughts

Miles Mathis has offered a summary of the events of 9/11/2001. He introduces new and old concepts. New to me is the idea that the buildings were laced with asbestos, and the cost of decontamination far exceeded the cost of demolition. Also, legal demolition would have required evacuation of Manhattan, possibly large swaths of Long Island as well, possibly even New Jersey. It was easier, says Mathis, to do it all illegally. At five pages it is quick and concise and well worth everybody’s time.

1963 Self-Immolation in Vietnam: Staged?

Our friend Petra Liverani sent this piece to all her blog followers, me included. At POM, it is right up our alley! 1963 was a long, long time ago, but those of us alive at that time (I was 13) were stunned by the image. It is forever embedded in our brains, as was surely the intent of planners of that era, if Petra knows what’s up. 

Petra’s blog is Psyop Detective. It should be on our blogroll here, and will be before the day is done. If you want to review the comments she has drawn on this particular post, go here

Prompted by the mention of the alleged protest self-immolation by Vietnamese monk, Thích Quảng Đức, in 1963 in the comments on Is It “Inappropriate” To Ask Basic Questions About “Burning Man” Aaron Bushnell? by Celia Farber, I wondered if the 1963 self-immolation might reveal anomalies too.

Sure enough, things don’t add up, just as they don’t with Aaron’s seeming self-immolation. While I must admit that Aaron’s immolation is quite convincing, one oddity I noticed was that after tipping what seemed like petrol over himself, when he put the lighting tool to his garment nothing happened and one must wonder why considering that as soon as he put it to the ground, immediately the flames started up. The fact that he was completely aflame for almost 40 seconds without collapsing also seems very odd – any enlightenment on the trickery welcome. I know there are fireproof suits but as there was no evidence of face-protection and the seeming immolation was so long it seems unlikely the trickery involved a fireproof suit.

See also article indicating that the January 2001 self-immolation by five people in Tiananmen Square was faked.

Find that floating hand …

Epoch Times (and no doubt many others) ran a story about how the (surviving) attending physicians to the JFK assassination dispute the official findings of the Warren Commission. Thanks in large part to the seminal works of Miles Mathis and Tyrone McCloskey, we know a little more about the events of 11/22/1963 than the average person. The doctors are part of a script that is still being read 60 years after the fact!
