we did let our sisters play too, but only if they were the heroins who needed saving)

That’s funny! Back in my day, in the late sixties in my neighborhood, there were many more boys than girls. Some of us girls wanted to play, not with baby dolls and Babies, but to play war with the boys with cool stuff like toy guns because that was a lot more fun.

The boys would play WWII and only let us girls play if we agreed to be nurses treating the wounded behind enemy lines. But that was no fun.

We would agree to get into the game by “pretending” to be mere nurses then we’d devise our strategy as being secret double-double agents. We’d take the guns from the wounded and ambush the Nazis with our inside information and save the Americans!

We were wily and devious and imaginative. The boys cried foul and said we cheated and wouldn’t let us girls play any more.

This is a true story and I actually remember telling one boy, “We didn’t cheat: All’s fair in love and war”.

Alas, we girls were kicked out anyway so instead we stole the boys GI Joes and paired them up with our more intellectually superior Barbies. Barbie would devise the espionage plots and GI Joe was the muscle to carry out our plans.

I think kids had more fun then. We played games by the hour and never got tired of it, of course boys were a little on the chauvinistic side then, but we grew out of it when we found out what treasures girls really were! I feel sorry today for kids who don't use their immaginations but rely on computer games, tv, etc.

If something like this starts wading ashore on the New Jersey coast, RUN.

Probably didn’t land anywhere near where witnesses claim to have seen it land. Meteors deceptively fall out of the sky and seem to land nearby, but bright falling objects tend to seem much closer than they really are, especially when they’re moving so fast as to be impossible for the eye to track.

“As it turned out it wasn’t little green men or those nasty Ruskies, but a meteorite that disappeared into a high hill top called Peter’s Mountain.”

I wish I’d been roasting marshmallows at a campire when you told that story. You left out the last line - “Then the Aliens appeared!”

Probably about the same age - 7 or 8 back in 67 - 68. Was out one evening skating on the pond. I was tired and laid back to rest in a snow bank. Thought FOR SURE I saw a HUGE fireball - larger than a full moon. And of course it looked like it landed in the next neighborhood. I ran home and made mom call the TV station but they had no reports.

It is such a vague memory that now I wonder if I didn’t fall asleep on that snowbank and dreamt it!? But obviously I didn’t think so at the time.

It was the night of June 14, 1967.

What....I thought I saw something tonight.

We were camping last summer just west of Abiquiu, NM.

Between the lightening in the distance and the array of incoming celestial objects, it was hard to sleep.

People at lower altitudes miss out on a lot.

It was Obama’s craft coming back to earth. We should have paid more attention when it happened.

The Space Ship ACORN crashing and burning maybe?

I was on leave at the time, when I got to the party and told what I saw, I was the official goofball for the nite, LOL......vindicated the next day, tho :) Soon afterward I saw plenty of lights in the sky where I went. It was hundreds of miles east of me, I wish that it hadn’t been overcast....what a sight it must have been without the clouds....

Silly Vermont Lt. Obama's not from outer space. He's from Kenya. (His wife however?)

Hmmm...
