Strange UFO seen in Colorado

There's a new kind of UFO being seen in Colorado.

It's not an egg. It's not a football shape. It's not a cigar. And it's certainly not a flying saucer.

Tim Butler, a sound engineer from Durango, says he saw a silent, silver, flying boomerang – about 40 to 60 feet long – sweep over Fort Lewis College while flying a little higher than 1,000 feet, according to a report in the Durango Herald.

Butler witnessed the craft in the sky Sept. 28 and has since found out others in Colorado saw something similar about that time.

Other similar reports of a boomerang-shaped craft were recorded in the Silverton Standard more than a week earlier.

Butler told the Herald he is a scientist at heart and believes what he saw was evidence of unknown technology – possibly military.

"It wasn't thermalling and didn't make a sound," he said. "There was no heat distortion behind the end. I thought it had to be a military drone at one point but there was no contrail, no propulsion."

Well, that is aggravating. Standard models have been egg, football, and cigar-shaped, and of course, the old bland saucer prototype. But now some aboriginal ET threw in a boomerang model. We'll wait, and see if it keeps coming back.

Maybe it is a boomerang that the aliens are trying to get rid of.
But, how do you throw away a boomerang?

I've heard about these "cigar shaped" craft. Are they cigar shaped like a rocket (cylindrical)? Or are they flying discs that resemble a cigar when seen in profile?

I waved....but maybe they just couldn't see my raccoonskin cap under my Official Space Cadet clear bubble helmet !

Oh well.

What IS strange is that they didn't see the giant helium-filled SpongeBob pinata I was towing, as part of my very important Sun-Spot experiments. So I wouldn't believe anything these people report. I think they're nuts.

Is this anywhere near where the Kobe stuff went on? Maybe the Aliens are just looking for some action.

I can answer that but I don't know how to throw away a trashcan. Put it at the curb and the trashmen will leave it.

You're right, these sorts of items never stick around long in Breaking News. They usually just hover there for a few minutes and then zooooppp! they disappear off into the twilight.
