I remember when this was happening- actually periodically folks claim this happens even more recent than this. But this wave of reports of mutilated cows (and horses, at least in Oklahoma) got me in very deep trouble. KOMA radio station did a special report on this one night, the way they did the show was very much like Art Bell at his finest of course this was pre-Art Bell.

I wanted to listen to it and my mother didn’t want me to listen to that show or anything else on KOMA at the time. I snuck a radio into my room and listened to the show against her wishes. At some point I fell asleep and dreamed of aliens coming to my house for the cows and horses- I lived on a ranch.

I woke up and saw a UFO landing on the hill above my house out my bedroom window. It was glowing and giving off a really bright light...scared the tar out of me- so even though I was not that young I did what all scared children do- I fled to my mother’s room, and woke her up, babbling and crying about UFOs and aliens getting the livestock.

My mother got up, told me there was NO such thing as UFOs, marched me back to my room where she pointed out to me the galvanized water storage tank shining in the moon light outside my window. She yanked the roller shade down on my window, told me to NEVER roll it up, and grounded me from listening to KOMA.
