OMG LOLZ IM SCURRED

no but seriously its prolly a sloth that lost its hair, still freaky though if its not.

It isn't an alien, because they were at my home just a few days ago. They have more than claws on their hands.

Actually, I could go into why aliens are bunk, but I don't know who would want to read it.

I'd read it. We are not alone. The truth is out there. Fox Mulder says so.

I didn't even post it yet. How did you read it?

Darn, I better put my tin foil cone hat back on!

[Cliff]

Meh. Even if it is an Alien who cares?

It's not like it was a threat ...

A mystery creature reportedly beaten to death by a group of teenagers in Panama is the subject of much speculation on the web.

Maybe he was just a scout.

Now the nasty ones will come down and exterminate our whole race.

Silly kids, they've killed us all!

I guess I meant I WOULD read it, not that I already had. I don't have THAT ability.

Okay, I do. I've read your mind. It didn't take long. It was a lot of empty space mixed in with a dancing purple hippo and some German porn.

j/k

There it goes again, that darn English language. Who decided that the past and present tense of read would be spelled the same?

I better get a better foil hat.

I'll give you the quick and dirty version.

There is a famous equation that gives the estimated possibility of life on other planets based upon star type, planets expected, and other variables. Sheldon (Jim Parsons) on Big Bang Theory went through the equation quickly in one episode.

That's all fine and good, but as far as aliens go, one has to ask, "Why?" Even if some alien species was far advanced of humans, and they could somehow manipulate space/time to travel faster than light or close to it, why would they come here?

There are billions of stars like ours in our galaxy. There is nothing peculiar about the Solar system that a space faring race would see from a distance to make them want to explore here.

True, if they could intercept our radio waves, which travel almost as fast as light, they would see a bug fat mess here on Earth, and maybe they would come, but we have only been sending out radio waves for a little less than one hundred years. That means the aliens would have to be within one hundred light years to know we are not just a rock around an average star.

We know that there are no similar radio wave coming from anything that close to us, so the galaxy is basically blind to our civilization. If that is so, why would any alien race farther away have bothered to come here? Note that the radius would only have been about fifty light years back in the 1950's and the Area 51 tale.

While it is likely there is life out there, there is little reason to believe that any of it is any more advanced than us, and that any of it would even bother to check out our star system for intelligent life.

Well, you have to read the context of English to fully understand our complex, almost-as-hard-as-Chinese, language.

An English lesson for non-native speakers: 'I'd read it' means 'I would read it'. If they'd already read it, it would say 'I've read it'. See how simple that is?

who the heck invented this language anyway?

No... Star Trek showed us we weren't.

I think it's rather arrogant for humans to believe there is no intelligent life in the universe other than on Earth. One can believe in extraterrestrial life without believing that they are flying here in saucers.

[Greg]

What????? you mean we're NOT the center of the universe???

One looks like a horrible genetic human mutation mistake that some teen had on prom night and promptly dumped it off somewhere. The second looks like a horrible genetic mutation possible related to a pig.

I'm sure some of you have seen that poor little girl on Discovery Health "Born Without a Face". Her name is Juliana Wetmore. You can Google it and see how terribly disfigured she still is, even after several surgeries. If you can see past all the abnormalities, she's a cute little girl. I feel bad for her.

I agree, but I was talking about close encounters of the third kind.
