Amelia Earhart is missing again.<\/p>\n
Turns out the smoking gun evidence from Sunday night’s program on the History Channel (the photograph with two figures said to be Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan), was more smoke than gun. Not exactly a hoax<\/em> per se, as it seems those presenting the photo really didn’t know its origins, but not at all as it was described. Apparently the photo was published in 1935. Regardless of what you believe to be Amelia Earhart’s ultimate fate, there is no doubt she was very much alive and living in the U.S. until 1937.<\/p>\n Whoops.<\/p>\n Still good television though. And let’s face it, this doesn’t disprove anything about being held by the Japanese or that she snuck back in the country as Big Foot or Elvis or whatever other theories are out there.<\/p>\n To other matters… yes, CNN’s special on the 1990s (cleverly called The Nineties<\/em>) is must-see viewing every Sunday from here on out. So the first episode was basically clips from a series of ’90s television shows… that’s good enough for me! It’s how I spent the entire decade; I’d love to relive it for an hour each Sunday in 2017.<\/p>\n Episode Two is about Bill Clinton.<\/p>\n Sign me up for that for sure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Amelia Earhart is missing again.
