There are extraterrestrials who want to abrade the anuses (ani?) of cows? Or, perhaps they merely want to speak harshly of the north end of a southbound bovine. In any event, the things some of these “aliens” do to animals, both four-legged and two-legged, seems to be directly related to the wilder fantasies of those who sight these UFO occupants, fantasies with not a little bit of drooling exhibited by the tellers of these tales of alien encounters as their eyes glaze over in imagined extasy…

…some people see every plane, satellite, meteor, and radar blip as a ship carrying a transdimensional human from the future who wants to excoriate cow anuses and warn us about nuclear weapons.

That’s the best synopsis for all these beliefs that I’ve ever heard.

UFO is what some Aliens call us,,,Ugly Food Objects,,,

Like, we need to be told by some “higher” power that nukes are BAD TOYS???

My elder brother built nuke missles years ago. When I asked him how he could justify working on such, he blithly stated, “,,,because I know people aren’t stupid enough to use them in an all out war,,,”

Looks like he was right,,so far.

Oh, and I suppose SHADO doesn’t stand for “Supreme Headquarters Alien Defence Organisation”. Harumph.

Jd,

I saw that one years ago one summer evening. It really looked just like one of those battery operated toys I had when I was a kid with the flashing lights.
When it got really close and flew overhead I could see it was an advertising plane.

If it had veered away I might have never been able to say what it was!

I remember one night when I was in elementary school, my father, brother and I had just come out of the library, when we saw a strange object in the sky. It looked like a circle of rotating lights that was slowly moving towards us. It turned out to be one of those airplanes with scrolling advertising messages on its underside, which none of us had ever seen. But what I also remember about that night is that none of us thought we were seeing an alien spacecraft. We just stood there knowing that once the strange lights got close enough to us, we’d probably figure out what it was. I’ve got to give kudos to my Dad for his rational perspective that night.
