You don't honestly think anyone is distracted from the news of the day because of a stupid Congressional UFO hearing, do you?
If I had to guess, you sound like a person who has been abducted by aliens, but the memory of your anal probe is still buried deep in your unconscious. The aliens programmed you to say "Squirrel" whenever you encounter an article on UFO's. I can't imagine what their intentions might have been in programming you to say Squirrel. But I wouldn't ponder it...all those abduction memories might come rushing back.
God only knows what they might have done to you.;-)
What would scare the hell out of me if I were you is, when are they coming back? Will they abduct you again tonight? Is that them (the little gray ones with the big eyes) scratching on your bedroom window just as you fall asleep?
Humor, look it up
