UFO's

Driving back from breakfast at the local choke & puke, I was reflecting on weather conditions.
51 degrees at nine, when I left the house...41 an hour later.
The wind went from nothing to 40 miles an hour, as I watched out the window of the cafe.
Turned North, into the wind, on the farm road to the house, I observed something huge and yellow in the sky..several of them, in fact.
They would be broad and long...then vanish..then appear again quite a distance away...Fear struck into the core of my being !!1 Convinced that finally...FINALLY..we had the Invasion of the Aliens from Outer Space...RIGHT HERE ON MY ROAD !!
Brief reflection had me accelerating to meet the ships...FINALLY I was going to get some relief from a Hillary/ McCain ticket !! EAGERLY was it I was going to file aboard ship....
Finally got close enough to observe (keenly, of course) that the construction going on a couple miles short of the house was now minus a big stack of insulation...like a hundred sheets...
These sheets were flying several hundred feet into the air..and in the process of flipping, would 'vanish' when they turned flat..the 4x8 foot sheet would then take up a bit of sky when they went broadsides...
Ah, well..back to hideous reality...

Has anyone ever seen one?
How many believe in them?
I once saw something extremely strange on bow watch in the bermuda triangle but have never really seen anything that would convice me. I have family members that insist that they have seen a UFO within 10 miles of my house, this is from a very trusted family member.

One day the Good Year Blimp was flying over my Grandparents house out in the country. My Father grabbed his polaroid out of the car and snapped a picture of it. When it developed plain as day there was another object in the sky. It looked Acorn shape, and was not blurred at all. It was bigger than the blimp (about the size of a dime on the film) and had two light beams coming down from it. Within the 2 beams were shapes that looked like 6's,9's, & 8's. It could not have been a double exposure, since it was polaroid, and could not have been a reflection since it was way out in the country. We asked polaroid if it was possible that it was in the film, and they said that while a minor flaw could be in the film something of that detail would not be. So, to answer your question, No, I've never seen a UFO; however, My father and I did take a picture of one.
But that was before I stopped using mind altering chemicals. [:D]

Not any matter of "belief"--Unidentified Flying Objects exist!
Some are ordinary aircraft and atmospheric phenomena that the observer cannot identify (but more knowledgeable people can).
Some are observations of advanced research projects (not necessarily involving "flying objects"--some involve "psychology").
Some are observations of craft operated by extraterrestrial alien life forms (for real!).
All are classified "Above Top Secret" (actually, more like "Way Above Top Secret").

I may have seen one I'm not sure if it was a UFO or not, I couldn't identify it.

Ask yourself why they would make trips measured in years at light speed, and then play hide and go seek when they get here. Makes no sense.
Take a look at the world around you--if you were an intergalactic traveler and came upon a world like ours would you want to run the risk of having our species develop capabilities of interstellar/intergalactic space flight? Better to stay in the shadows and work to prevent the technology that could give humans significant space flight capabilities, than to engage in an "open introduction" to the primitive beings running loose on Mother Earth.
I just want to get my hands on one of their ray guns. [:D]

Pensacola has more sightings than about anywhere. It's probably those sly navy aviators speeding around.[8D] I have seen film clips on tv about the area out N.E. across the bridge by the pistol shop. My boy lived out there while he was in training, but I can't remember the name of the area.

Yep,
I was down there a couple of times when my son was taking his NFO training. He lived in Gulf Breeze, I'm not forgetful. I really enjoyed Pensacola. We pulled our camper down there and camped on the NAS campground. Beautiful beaches, trees, history and probably the best 4th of July fireworks I've ever seen. Also the most miserable humidity I've ever experienced. I also got into the fire ants, but I still really enjoyed the area.

No joking.
You're not looking at the possibilities from a "perspective" other than "human on Earth." You are thinking we humans are superior to every other living thing in the Universe. "Why if beings were to travel past our little planet, they'd just have to stop in and see what wonderous greetings we offer..."
Perhaps you need to understand that we are a relatively "meaningless little planet" populated by "somewhat intelligent" beings who really aren't that interesting to beings who can travel amoung the stars.
I hope we can be friends - I want to go too!

Were Romulans present at Appomattox?
He said he new one of the pilots that had been flying one of the intercepters during one such encounter and had asked him what he chased.He said he could not talk about it and never to ask him again,and if he did he would not associate with him anymore.

Its funny how in todays society there are camcorders everywhere and there are hardly any sightings anymore.
Oh Hoppe's No. 9 you are so fine.
I need to get me some more of those bullet propulsion devices.
One shot, one kill, 29 more for the thrill.
The U.S. Air Force now has the capability to shoot one down if the wanted too, Air Borne Laser system- just a milisecond is all they need.
