Mexican UFOs








Mexican air force pilots just filmed some totally crazy video of eleven UFOs. According to The Globe and Mail:

The lights were filmed March 5 by pilots using infrared equipment. They appeared to be flying at an altitude of about 3,500 metres and allegedly surrounded the air force jet as it conducted routine anti-drug trafficking vigilance in Campeche. Only three of the objects showed up on the plane's radar.

“Was I afraid? Yes,” said radar operator Lieutenant German Marin in a taped interview made public Tuesday.

Mexican UFO researchers -- and, yes, there are indeed Mexican UFO researchers -- were ecstatic, naturally. Though it all reminds me of how wonderfully vague the phrase UFO is. Since it means "unidentified flying object", the object merely needs to be "unidentified". The longer we can keep from identifying it, the longer it stays a UFO.


(Thanks to Gord Fynes for this one!)

Yes, an UFO researcher's goal is ultimately to destroy his own fiel of research!

This brings up a funny definition of "archeologist" I once read: "A man who's carrer lies in ruins"!

Clive,

do you actually know Gord Fynes, or do you just read his site?
If you know him, that's kind of cool, coz I know him as a friend (former band-mate, actually, in the band SubStack) of two other friends.
Tiny, tiny world...

You know Gord? That's so cool! We email back and forth, and his site rocks.

Clive,

Well, as I said, I know him as a friend of a friend...he did tell me not to hit one of his hand drums with a drumstick at a rooftop party once, though. :)

The pilots were on a routine anti-drug flight...maybe the aliens were just looking to score a bag. Stranger alines/monsters exist in US government, so I wish the feds would just fess up to what they know about ufos...

Well, see ya soon, like, monday! bye! Oh, and the rest of you geeks are mofo's.

What is this? The amateur hour??
For those who haven't graduated from Simpleton elementary skool, stay there till u acquire the knowledge necessary to refute any claim that comes accross yer pimpledheadonyershoulders

If anyone can demonstrate that no, zero, member of the human race has developed a flying vehicle that cannot be seen by the naked eye, but only by infrared equipment, this mostly ignorant, thumb sucking, diaper-rashed few...(phew!) can finally realize that there is a reality beyond what comes accross their five limited pathetic natural senses. Get out of yer "dark-ages" cribs. It's time to grow up...if yer capable.
