“Why would they want to come to our backward “neighborhood” and just buzz around? Joyriding in such a place makes no sense.“
Perhaps they are from the renown publication Intersteller Geographic and taking picture of the curious savages.
Or perhaps they are scouting for slave labor, food, or space.
Or perhaps they conduct routine threat assessments.
A little story will explain my view of these things.
Years ago my wife and I were looking for a house to rent.
We answered an ad “house for rent” and went to visit the place.
The owner gave us a wonderful tour and we were thinking seriously about signing a contract on the spot.
I noticed one door we hadn’t opened yet and asked the owner what was behind the door.
He hesitated for a moment and then said “the other tenant”.
