Re: So how many of you guys have actually seen one?
Wow Darkbreed. Am I wrong in thinking you might just have had an episode of missing time? I am, of course, referring to your number 2 account. I must ask you if you've thought about this at all. Some pretty strange things have come from finding out exactly what may have happened in many other peoples missing time experiences. Of course, I may be misreading what you wrote, and in that case I appologize, but were you walking on the shores while 'wandering' afterwards, or were you in a boat at all? Did you notice any anomolies like your clocks seeming hours fast?
RWPTRBL -- I wish I would though, I have never been fortunate enough to see anything paranormal or mysterious...No UFO's, ghosts, vampires, bigfoot, Not one damn thing!!! I am getting desperate and may have to get Prophet Yaweh to help me out.
Honestly, like you RWPTRBL, I've never had the opportunity of actually seeing a UFO either. Likewise with all the other good stuff you wrote, but there are people in my life who would swear and be damned if wrong that they have. They will actually get into heated arguments about it. My late mother was always into paranormal stuff (at least she talked about it quite a bit). I don't know if it's because of my mother's influence or not, but my sister also swears that she's seen, and been touched by ghosts. Of course, I'm the bad guy who is always playing Devil's advocate by asking them to explain exactly what happened that made them believe in such things, but honestly their belief has always fascinated me, and I don't think I've ever truly completely disregarded what they believe. This could be because of what my Father told me one time though.
First, you have to understand that my Father is - and without imbellishing as a son normally would do a father - the smartest person I know personally. I have yet to sit down with Mr. Kaku or Mr. Hawking, but I would seriously compare him with them when it comes to sheer brainpower. I was always told that he had a photographic memory, and there simply hasn't been occasion to doubt it...at all.
Anyway, he says that he has seen plenty of them, and he doesn't even flinch when he says it. I don't know how to react when he tells me about them except to simply try to keep my mouth shut (without it dropping as it sometimes does around a pretty waitress or sompm...LOL) and listen to what he's saying. He's been a truck driver all my life, and he's been on every Interstate that the lower 48 states offers, as well as plenty of other roads (even without names) trying to get his cargo delivered, but I recently got a copy of his resume, and I was flabberghasted by his credentials of which I had no former knowledge. He volunteered for two terms in Vietnam, and has a very prestigious Intelligence background! I asked him why he chose truck driving as his proffesion and why he'd been doing it all these years and he simply stated that's where he belongs, \"on the road, and never tied down to one place\". Which both upsets me because of his absence for most of my childhood, and freaks me out when I think about it too long.
Anyway, I digress...sorry. I simply have to believe what he is telling me even though I have never been privvy to such things, or been afforded the chance to actually see one for my own experience.
The truth, however, is still a quandary. Are they government black projects, or are they aliens? I still tend to lean toward the former although I could tolerate a certain percentage of each.
thereisnoproof -- I remember 3 years ago when I thought I saw one. I was at home alone and I decided to dance to old school destiny's child while I was on the phone. So I did just that, but then I looked outside the window and guess what I saw. THREE HUGE BRIGHT BLUE CIRCLES SPINNING AROUND THE FREAKING CITY! I immediately screamed into the phone and told everyone I knew. Later I found out they just opened a new club and they were just celebrating.
I wanted to die.
I swear to whomever will listen, that was one of the funniest things I've ever heard. A bunch of LOL's for you man. After reading it again, I still can't help but chuckle deep.
GREAT THREAD HEGGY!
