Dixon is an FBI Stooge!

From SkepDic :

Jeane Dixon & the Jeane Dixon effect

Jeane Dixon (1918-1997) was an astrologer and alleged psychic who did not predict the assassination of President Kennedy. She was featured every year in various publications that engage in the entertaining pursuit of making predictions for the new year. Ms. Dixon was never correct in any prediction of any consequence. She predicted that the Soviets would beat the U.S. to the moon, for example, and that World War III would begin in 1958. When that didn't happen, she predicted there would be a cure for cancer in 1967. Most of her predictions were equivocal, vague or mere possibility claims.

Dixon achieved a reputation as a very good psychic, however, when the mass media perpetuated the myth that she had predicted President Kennedy's assassination. In 1956 she predicted in Parade magazine that the 1960 election would be won by a Democrat and that he would die in office, "although not necessarily in his first term." However, in 1960, apparently forgetting or overriding her earlier prediction, she predicted unequivocally that "John F. Kennedy would fail to win the presidency." These inconvenient facts were omitted in Ruth Montgomery's 1965 book A Gift of Prophecy: the Phenomenal Jeane Dixon. More than 3,000,000 copies of this mythological account of Dixon's psychic prowess were sold with nary a cry of "non-sense" from the mass media. 

Dixon was an FBI stooge, who agreed to make claims about Russia being behind the civil rights movement and left-wing agitation on college campuses. She was chummy enough with J. Edgar Hoover that he agreed to serve as an honorary director to Children to Children Inc., a foundation established by Dixon to help sick children.

In her obituary and in its final issue of 1997, The Sacramento Bee perpetuated the myth of Jeane Dixon's psychic powers by declaring her to have predicted the assassination of JFK.

The Jeane Dixon effect refers to the tendency of the mass media to hype or exaggerate a few correct predictions by a psychic, guaranteeing that they will be remembered, while forgetting or ignoring the much more numerous incorrect predictions.

I think I finally remember where I got the name "Dixon" from -- I read all of Jean Dixon's stuff as a kid, and she fascinated me. Sheesh. What a realization. I named myself after a fake psychic. Irony gets a gold star today.

(By the way, I don't buy that Jean Dixon was an FBI Stooge. I hope the people at SkepDic remain skeptical about that.)

Did you also know that Billy Carter was a stooge for the beer industry and Robert E. Lee was a stooge for the U.S. Army before the American Civil War?

Hey DCL, you're the Three Stooges.

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

C'mere you porcupine.

 

[RosevilleCAguy]

C'mere you porcupine.

Only if you promise not to make me a "fluffer"

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Yeah. That's exactly what occured to me.

 

[Starfish]

I am tapping into your mind.

 

[RosevilleCAguy]

Fine.

Ignore the witty quips by the doggie.

 

[IrishWolfhound]

Damn...I thought when I saw this thread that Dix was confessing to being the FBI stooge in Lit.

I know one of you is.

And whoever said I'm paranoid is making that up because they are out to get me.

Actually, its you. I should know.

 

[IrishWolfhound]

Actually, its you. I should know.

Quiet, fool! You'll blow our cover.

 

[Cheyenne]

Jeane Dixon is dead? Really?

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Yeah. She didn't see it coming.

Dammit, when you say blow, that makes me think of coacaine. Coacaine makes me think of Former Director Hoover's drug policies. Hovver makes me think of the vacuum cleaner of the same name which really sucks. Sucking makes me think off all sorts of perverse things. As a good church going man, I am not allowed to hink of perverse things so now I'm gonna lose my membership in the Christian Coalition. God will hate me now. Im going to hell.

Dammit, I can't concentrate on the surveillance anymore with this whole hell thing running through my head.

Thanks. Thanks a lot.

I'm gonna write your sorry ass up for a transfer to a new detail. From now on, you get to monitor "Teletubbies.com" to secure conclusive evidence that "Tinkiewinkie" is in fact gay and in league with Redwave and/ or p_pman.

 

[IrishWolfhound]

Fool!

You actually believed all this time it was I who reported to you? You fell for the old controller is the agent is the controller scam.

Now I'll arrange to have you forced to read all of yayati's posts and follow him around in his totally inane life.

Wrong again.

I was using the old controller is the agent is the controller who is really yayati, but is not, but who thinks he is, so he might be, then secretly becomes a small household appliance, that has more than one use.

Besides. I also know you stole Spinaroonie's shoe. Give it back.

Damn...I fell for that one again?

I just borrowed his shoe to make a phone call. I was going to return it.

 

[RosevilleCAguy]

I can relate. I used to use the shoe phone all the time. Problem was I could only call the other shoe I was wearing.

That and the roaming charges really sucked.

Have you tried the new bagel phone? It was deveoped by the Israelis. The service area is anyplace that has a deli well stocked with cream cheese. Lox also works, but it is more expensive.

I did, but kept getting the cream cheese in my ear.

I tried the french baugette phone, but it was on strike half the time.

Never, never, NEVER trust the foul and most foreign French.

With the exception of the kiss, they have made no contributions to civlization. My theory is that the "French" kiss is actually from Alsace-Lorraine, a region which is arguably German. Unfortunatley, a "German" kiss gives the image of a fat guy in lederhosen reeking of beer trying to "blitz" his tongue down your mouth. Its very unappealing.

A "French" kiss, on the other hand, makes you think of somebody who is easily and quickly invaded.

That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

And the never to be forgotten Russian kiss, which tastes of borscht. And once they enter you in the name of peace and brotherhood you can never get them to leave.

But don't forget, with the French kiss came the French disease, which they called the English disease, who called it the Portuguese disease...

It seems syphilis was a disease without a country.

In California, they call that marriage. Where the hell is Gorby when I need him?
