Title: The UFO thread...

Watch this:

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2008/11/24/obrien.aliens.not.just.crazy.cnn

It is quite fascinating. The witness in that video include an air force pilot with a PHD, a US senator and a US president... OK so Jimmy Carter is a little crazy, but still.

The last clip in that video from March 1997 where the witness was a US governor was chilling. I actually watched that as breaking news on FOX and CNN. But then nothing came of it. :( 

Here it is actually:

Swamp gas....

I always love stuff like this. It's really interesting. I don't know if I believe all this crap, but there is obviously something going on. I mean the Phoenix lights are a pretty big deal. I have yet to hear a good explanation for it.

The Phoenix lights are easily explainable.  A UFO landed in nearby Glendale and became University of Phoenix Stadium.

Because advanced aliens with faster-than-light travel happening by Earth out of the infinity of possible places is so much more plausible than any local phenomenon.

Well to be fair the Earth has been spitting out a lot of radio noise for a while now. Anyone passing within range could pick it up and then find us. Or they investigated planets with a high probability of supporting life, much like what we're searching for. Earth would be a likely stop.

We always think we are so unique, and that we would stand out in the universe.  I really don't think so.

The infinitesimal remnants of our century of radio waves will reach the center of our galaxy in 25,000 years.  Other galaxies, hundreds of thousands, millions of years.

It's pretty well established that there are aliens amongst us. The real question is: whom among us is one of them?

And I hate to say this, Cobra, but you aren't exactly making a compelling case for yourself.

Yeah, what the fuck sort of human tries to tell us we aren't unique?  Freak.

Cobra's scorn seems to stem from some sort of superiority only an alien creature living amongst us as spy would feel!

OH MY GOD! QUEMAQUA IS ANOTHER ONE! AND HE IS ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT KILLING HUMANS TOO!




* note to MysterD: Please don't dial 9-1-1. We are only joking here; Quemaqua won't actually do any killing with Cobra around as his ranking officer.

"I'm not the messiah!  I'm not the messiah!"

"Only the true messiah denies his divinity."

"Alright, I am the messiah!"

"HE IS THE MESSIAH!!"

*Sigh*

Ahhh shit... Cobra I wanted to quote you but hit modify instead. That's why it says I edited your post... when I really didn't.

I apologize...
