You know, a few years ago I tried to fly to Australia and I can confirm it isn't there. I ended up right back here where I started, but in the meantime "they" had changed all the buildings and made everyone talk with an Australian accent, just to make me think the place was real. And you try to tell me there is no conspiracy? Hah!
Yes, had you actually been in Australia, you would have been standing upside down.

Where do you dig these imbeciles up, Grant?
This stuff would be almost humorous except for the fact that I think he may be serious.

yeah, I saw one once...
Just once.
It was like 1965, and I was driving my dad's old 1960 Chevy Brookwood station
wagon, with the six cylinder engine, the three speed manual trannie, stamped steel dashboard,
no seat belts, no padding anywhere, power nothing... My girlfriend was sitting next
to me on the bench seat, and my buddy and his girlfriend were in the back seat. It was
probably about midnight, on a summer night in Michigan, USA. Weather was clear and
mild, not much summer haze.
Drinking age was 21 then, and I was like 16. Nobody was drinking. None of us had been
smoking any marijuana, that wasn't available to middle class kids for another couple three years.
No acid or mushrooms or any of that.
We were just four teens on a double date, and we'd been to a summer dance at the local Ski area.
We were heading for some kind of lover's lane, my buddy and me hoping we might get lucky
and our girlfriends knowing damn well we would probably not.
The girl usually knows, eh?
Anyway, I was driving, and saw the UFO off to the right of the road. "What the hell is that?"
I was a couple years out of my model airplane phase, so I still knew what aircraft looked like
and what they didn't. I was looking at a luminous object, which was hovering.
I pulled off the road. We all got out. My buddy John and his girlfriend Sue had probably
been necking and petting in the back seat, and didn't notice anything until I stopped the car
on the side of the road. But I was curious, and there had been a spate of UFO sightings in
our area in the last few years. Government "experts" had been called in, actually. The term
"Swamp Gas" had been given to the press. I had never heard the term before about 1964, and
only seldom since. We all thought it was funny. "Swamp gas..." yeah right.
Anyway, we got out of the car, and looked at the UFO. We all saw it. It was not a blimp
or a weather balloon. *shrugs. ...No flashing lights like an aircraft would have.
It made no sounds. It was shaped like an American football... I found it difficult to tell how
far away it was, or how big. The near Ridgeline was about a mile away, and the UFO seemed
to be hovering over that. It was low, I think... maybe under 3000 ft (1000 m) but I found it
difficult to judge, along with range. Could not identify it as anything I was familiar with.
It began to move, and went away slowly and silently.
Looking back on this episode, I'd guess that the UFO was about the size of an Air Force transport,
or a bit smaller, like a large Helicopter. Range maybe a mile distant, or somewhat less, like a Kilometer. No closer. I always figured it was the Air Force, testing some secret thing, and I'd find
out more about it later. But I never did.
We were teens, we were interested in each other, not the phenomenon. We all said, "Cool..."
and got back in the car and went our way, on teen business. We all talked about it the next day or so, and agreed we had seen something, and that we didn't know what it was. We didn't report it
or even tell many people about it. I didn't tell my parents.

Aliens like to mess with my head.
In the past week they:
Broke the passenger front window regulator on one of our Jeeps,
broke the blower motor resistor on the other,
totally FUBARed my main thru-wall AC unit.
Maybe they think I am bored and need something to do.
Mean sense of humor those miserable f*cks.
Thats just this past week.
