Where's Fansome?

Obscure people are dying and propagation forecasts aren't being reported. I'm worried the old guy has fallen into a sinkhole. Someone issue an "Elder Alert".

He needs to combine the two, propagation has certainly been dead recently.

I've got a terrible feeling he's hitched up the goat wagon to head off Wozniak on the plains of Kansas. It will be a donnybrook come September.

United Nations intruder disappears after jumping into river

NEW YORK (AP) — Police say they are unsure what happened to an intruder on United Nations property who disappeared after climbing over a wall and jumping into the East River.

The New York Police Department says officers responded to a Saturday morning call from UN security workers about a man who had gotten onto the property. Police say the man climbed over a wall and jumped into the river.

Divers searched the river but did not find the man.

The NYPD says a search will likely resume Sunday.

Al, Al, Al, no need for such tales. We're your friends here.

Don't you know a rookery of penguins based on Roosevelt Island keeps Manhattan safe from sappers and escapees? What do you think got Kurt Russell's eye? Perhaps you should take a hit from Kurt and look before you leap.

Personally, I can't wait for President Trump to put up his Great Wall of Penguins to protect the country from evil doers. It's gonna be a winnah, I tell you, a winnah!
