Did they nearly crash because they had their
"Light's out! Light's out in London..."?

Blinkin Eck. That would be a cool name for a band.

Man, if I had a nickel for every time I thought "blinkin' 'eck", I'd have something like 12 cents.

Carol, aged 58, described a flat round structure 'like a giant dinner plate' that was flashing orange.

If only she looked below the flashing orange to read the sign.

My dinner plate only flashes orange if I've had too much curry and can't keep it down. Also the constant anal probes give me an upset stomach.

"But there is no way you could make something up like that."

Well then I'm convinced.

Terrified Cliff and Carol Sheldon say the flashing orange mass nearly smashed into their car in Bubbenhall on Monday night.

Sorry my bad.

Why do UFO sighting articles get greenlit so often? Not interesting, funny, unique, anything-- just some dweebs who see lights and some two-bit online rag writes an article about it. Let's move on then.

In other news, I am adding "blinkin' hell" to my vocabulary, at once.

Now if it was even remotely like a meteorite, they should have scampered right on over to the "near by field" and investigated rather than simply driving on...

I also read the same thing, except my eyes went a step farther to "bikini hell" -- which makes me think of that pic I've seen post recently of the four grossly overweight "women" in bathing suits. Ugh!

I can't believe I actually read an article about a UFO sighting in which the observers and commentators didn't immediately jump to the conclusion that just because what they saw was strange, it must have been an extraterrestrial spacecraft.

I know this pic of which you speak. I know it is not good. Not good for the eyes or the mind.

So you are compelled by some unknown force to click on them?

Without pics, any UFO claim is worthless. And even then, with the average quality of said UFO pics, they are still worthless.

Pseudo-rationalists, overwhelmed by their perceived need to conform to "unless its official" meaning "some guy from guvmint wearing black suit admits on CNN " standards still cannot resist their inner urge to explore what they find unexplainable.

You know, I've always wanted to see a UFO, I mean really.

But with the exception of the Hills, why do the aliens always pick on the trashy redneck types?

I thought I saw a UFO once, something going across the sky really high up; wasn't a meteor or anything, just as if it was slowly, gradually floating at a steady clip. Then I did my research, I happened to be underneath a flight pattern for the ISS that night.

That is the most concise explanation for certain behaviours I have yet seen.

I don't understand why people still think this, I know the media likes to portray it that way, but a large number of the people that report seeing UFOs are pilots, scientists etc even astronauts have reported them. Really a cross section of the populace.

Half the size of a Vauxhall Corsa? That makes it about the size of a large dog.

Guess they really are little green men....
