“The one that landed in my backyard came tromping down the ramp with a clip board.
He stopped at the bottom, looked at me and then his clip board,
“Arthur Dent?.....Arther PHILLIP Dent?”
I said:”No.”
He said “#@!###@!”
He turned around and tromped back up the ramp and took off.
The only reason I remember it was because he crushed my peonie bushes.”___Eastern Shore.

“So what’s the punch line?
A joke has a punch line. This story is not identified as a joke but as “100% fun lunacy” and “an absurd pointless piece”
So...I don’t know.”___Yesthatjallen
__________
* Now that makes me happy.
* You actually read the story.
* You actually saw the opening two lines.
* Many thanks. Nothing beats clarity -— as in
“100% fun lunacy” and “an absurd pointless piece”
* That’s ‘bout as plain and clear as plain and clear can be, me thinks.

“I’m not saying “believe” anything here, but I am saying I was present back in 1975 when an “unexplained” incident occured in Montana. I was a computer maintenance man on the NORAD Sage Air Defense Computer, stationed at the 24th NORAD Region, Malmstrom AFB, MT. I was on duty and on the Senior Director’s Dias the evening/ morning that an event occured that eventually was featured on the Robert Stack show “Unsolved Mysteries”. I did see the objects, whatever they were, on the SAGE system’s display. Here is a clipping from sometime in the 80’s from the Great Falls news paper .”___Jaguar XKE
________
* Actually there are some serious people
that have reported UFO sightings. This
cannot be denied. What conclusions can
be drawn from this, is unknown to me.

WPAFB was also the home to "Project Blue Book".
“I have an opposite take on it. Scratch the term, “believe in.” That applies to things that are unseen. The correct question is, do you believe they exist? The answer, of course, is YES. People see objects in the sky that are “flying.” If you can’t identify what they are, the are unidentified flying objects. To deny them would be insanity.
Whether or not they come from another planet, that’s a whole other question.”___Lee’s Ghost
________
* Now THAT makes GOOD SENSE to me.
* THAT is solid.
* Sign me up for that.

I agree with that. Odd things in the sky that people find unexplained are not ‘all one thing’.
“In the General/Chat forum, on a thread titled I Believe In UFO’s. , Crusher138 wrote:
I don’t know what they are, but there are strange things flying around.
Around 1974 or so my father and I witnessed a UFO. It was about 100 yards ahead of us, crossed from our right to our left, about 50 feet up. The object was very bright. We were east of it, it was dusk, and it wasn’t flying all that fast at first. As it approached a busy road it swooped up to the south and flew out of sight in a matter of seconds.
I don’t have the faintest idea what it was. It was solid, it was quiet, it looked like a slightly flattened sphere. There were no fins or wings. It accelerated faster than anything I have ever seen before or since.”___Crusher138
_____________
* Interesting.
* I know that MANY people have “seen stuff”
that cannot be explained.
* I do not doubt for a minute that you saw
what you said you saw.
* Thanks for sharing that.

* Cool. Will do.
* I have seen the writing on the wall.
* In another vein, King Nebuchadnezzar is
one of my Biblical hero’s.
*He was driven insane.
*I have always been able to empathize
with King Nebby on that point. LOL
* But I have never let my nails and hair
get in the condition that King Nebby
allowed. His grooming was not all that
good there for awhile.
* But it all ended up good.
* All is well that ends well.
* By the way, I believe King Nebby was
a “Christian” ie, a true believer. You?
Scot me up Beamy.
JAG
He’ll be back. You are somewhere on his list too you know.
* Many thanks.
* I love cartoons.
* Have you ever seen a UFO?
* They say there is no Santa Claus.
But every Christmas I see him in stores.
Can you explain this mystery?
