I think I did - long time ago - on a school trip - we all saw this dark cigar shape tracking us out at sea as we drove along the coast in the school minibus - it seemed to follow us for a minute or two and then fly straight up out of sight - I imagined I could almost see "movement" lines when it moved up it happened so quickly....Lord knows what it was.
Earlier tonight I was called to a guy asleep in a garden. When we found him, he was using a rock as a pillow, and thought we'd broken into his bedroom and were taking the piss, until the street lamps came into focus. At one point, apropos of nothing, he looked me in the eye and told me he wasn't going to buy a tractor.
Ive got a fair idea why Outlaw's step-mum sees ghosts and UFOs.
I have a childhood memory of seeing aliens but I probably dreamt it
He could've just said they came from another planet but seems keen to convince people with his bullshit pseudoscience that he knows stuff. I wouldn't trust him with my lunch. - SG
Whitley Strieber's book Communion is a good read, pretty damn scary in parts. It was lucky that a science-fiction writer was abducted by aliens - who better to write a book about it?
I have retrospectively spoilered this - the subject matter being potentially offensive or disturbing. It's a series of old Victorian post mortem photographs in which the deceased (usually a child) are photographed in poses; in some cases with the family; which was at one time the done thing. No doubt the higher child mortality rate meant that people dealt with it in a different way than we do in the so called modern, developed world. Photographs being expensive then it was typically the only photo of a child - so these were by all accounts treasured.
Very odd and very sad. The guy who posted this has added weird ambient music which adds to the overall oddness.
Spoiler:
A quick image google of "victorian post mortem photos" will show loads of these - many of them heart breaking.
Some photos I took in Rantepao, Sulawesi, Indonesia few years ago. The Toraja people build tombs for their dead with a life size effigy of the dead person outside, or sometimes inside, looking out a window. It's quite bizarre. You come across what look like little cottages with someone looking out the window and it's not until you get up close that you see that it's actually an effigy looking out a glass window in a tomb. Sometimes the effigy is more conspicuous.
This is honouring the dead, not vandalism. Apparently the dead like a fag. Or ten.

I have a huge bowl of sweets by the front door for later this evening. Halloween is not a tradition in Spain. Last year one kid knocked on the door (on the wrong day). I like sweets.
We had two kids knock on the door. They left empty handed, though were the beneficiaries of some impromptu re-education about the folly of commercial holidays.
