Oh Pravda....

[farmfriend]

I keep telling you, you are looking in the wrong places.

[A. Morgan]

Paging Art Bell, paging Mr. Art Bell.

[Crazieman]

Pravda has become a supermarket tabloid. There was a story a couple weeks ago about some crazy timewarp thingie at the south pole.

[BluH2o]

What is this ... a slow night on FR?

[Fitzcarraldo]

[Fitzcarraldo]

Ugh. Looks like something that crawled out of Chernobyl.

I got to admit, relaying stories from people who belong in mental wards is an interesting way to come up with stories for a paper.

[Oorang]

Wow, you are on a roll tonight. I hearby declare you tonight's "entertainment" director :-)

[rintense]

I thought John Kerry was in Utah. Huh. Go figure.

[Young Rhino]

Upon watching the John Kerry jock-strap buying tour, the creature slit its wrists.

[TBall]

It would be nice if Pravda would report the part where she ate the fresh mushrooms that she picked earlier that morning.

[tet68]

So the CIA operative that went though the "Time Tunnel" in Antarctica ended up here?

Ok, wire Hillery! it's SAFE to go thourgh.

[GreenHornet]

The pensioner approached the grave and saw a strange creature about 25 centimeters in height. This was not a human being.

Could have been Lanny Davis.

I remember in the 80's, that there was a massive UFO thing going on in the USSR. It was on the news in the USA for about 4 hours, and then died.

Small heads, big bodies. They've done this before over there. I have no idea why. Back then, my mom said maybe they'd visit Russia first. It was the cold war and all. And it was from AP saying it.

Oddly enough, AP simply stopped talking about it after those 4 hours. I must've been 14 years old or so, but it was a day-long sensation. At the time, the USSR was considered to be taken for real.

So much we have learned.

[Tennessee_Bob]

My ex-wife is no where near Russia. I saw her earlier tonight after her visiting hours with our daughter was over.

[Bismarck]

Must have been an illegal Mexican.

[GeronL]

saw a strange creature about 25 centimeters

Thats what... 4 inches tall???

[MarMema]

You can see this crud standing in line at any US grocery store. Why post a Russian version of it here? The US versions are less exciting for some reason?

The interesting thing about this genre (the ooooooh i saw a UFO doing about 60 on the wrong lane ) is that even if, and it's a big if, there was something it would nto be believed. Everyone would scoff at the person telling the story and all credence would be thrown out the window. Even if a UFO came and hovered over your house and teleported some alien dudes who came into your place for supper, the best thing to do would be to just entertain them wish them well and once they flew off go back to what you were doing before (and try to ignore the irritating rectal probe). Telling your friends, neighbors and the press would not be a prudent course of action, unless you are a masochist and enjoy pain and suffering.

Now, i personally believe in UFOs. I just don't believe in Aliens. Let me explain.

Think about it. A UFO is simply a flying craft that cannot be identified. Hence if i saw a plane that was unlike anything i'd ever seen that would fall under UFO.

Perfect example: The B-2B stealth bomber (and to a lesser extent the F-117A stealth fighter). Both planes, especially the B-2, do not look like conventional planes. And for almost 2 decades they were not official. Yet, they flew covertly at night. Now imagine some hombre spotting a B-2 in 1985! He'd think it was an alien craft. Is it? No! But it is definitely a UFO.

Hence UFOs exist .....the only problem is that they are just unidentified but not alien. Humans for some reason tend to attribute mystical qualities to anything they do not comprehend.

However the fact still remains that any UFO sighting is automatically termed as a kook-pot story. And it is great for national security due to the fact anyone seeing the B-2 back then or the alleged Aurora (the supposed replacement to the Sr-71) today will be taken by the public to be a crackpot and hence his story will be effectively negated.

As for lil' green dudes smoking space weed while flying at warp 17? Mmmmmmmm, let them come on Meet the Press and i'll believe in them.

The little creature had no ears, huge slanting catlike eyes occupied the biggest part of its face. ...The skin on the body was gray and with dark spots in brown on the head. No hair, small holes instead of ears. Small flat nose enabled the creature to breath. ...Long fingers had small sharp claws. No genitals revealing creature's sex. ...a complete set of teeth, but too small lower jaw and huge scarlet tongue occupying almost all the mouth ...The creature was lying and did not move most of the time.

Damned if it ain't James Carville! What was he doing in Russia?
