The fabled Project Blue Book, the Air Force's files on UFO sightings and investigations, have, for years, tantalized and frustrated extraterrestrial enthusiasts ( aka Nutbars.) However this last week nearly 130,000 pages of declassified UFO records were put online. A day to make XFile groupies pee their collective pants.
UFO enthusiast John Greenewald has spent nearly two decades filing Freedom of Information Act requests for the government's files on UFOs and other phenomena. John obviously doesn't have a day job.
BUT it paid off, because, on January 12, Greenewald posted the Blue Book files — as well as files on Blue Book's 1940s-era predecessors, Project Sign and Project Grudge — on his online database, The Black Vault.
Strangely, the one thing you won't find online are records related directly to the alleged 1947 Roswell, N.M., incident, where conspiracy theorists maintain the military recovered a crashed alien spacecraft and its occupants. (Cue eerie music here.) I have been to Roswell and to say City Counsel has embraced this part of their history is to put it mildly! There is even a FREE alien museum.....get your T-shirts here!
But the name Roswell does pop up several times in the declassified files. Several blurry photographs of lights in the sky were taken at Roswell in 1949. And in 1950. Airmen there spotted a circular object 10 feet in diameter with a bluish-white color going fast at 8,000 feet and taking a sharp turn to the right. True!
The National Archives maintains it "has been unable to locate any documentation among the Project Blue Book records which discuss the 1947 incident in Roswell, N.M." ( please note this omission - conspiracy theorists).
Only in Roswell you say......We in Canada and the rest of the world haven't been left out in the UFO department: Here are just a smattering of news headlines.
UFO spotted hovering over iceberg in eastern Canada - An eyewitness claimed to have spotted a white object spinning and shape-shifting above the sea during an excursion to Salvador, Newfoundland.
A UFO whizzes past CCTV camera on darkened industrial estate - In this video, a bright, white object can be seen hurtling through the air at breakneck pace. It was recorded on a CCTV camera on an industrial site in Prokopyevsky, Russia.
A UFO attacked a Taliban camp in Afghanistan - This clip shows a triangular shaped airborne object open fire on an insurgent position. Explosions can be seen and a huge plume of smoke soon rises up in to the sky.
A Bizarre 'rotating' object spotted over London, England - A series of photographs showed a blackish, rotating object complete with a light in the skies above the capital. It later floated off in the direction of Highbury and Islington.
M I C.....K E Y.....
And finally- a US Army Air Force fighter jet destroyed a giant 'alien monster' in the desert - A video uploaded to YouTube purports to to show the moment a fighter jet bombs a bizarre, throbbing jellyfish-like object in New Mexico, in the United States.
Then of course there is this:
Happy World UFO Day! A mock UFO with alien dolls and reading ‘Smile, you are being abducted’ is seen in Alto Paraiso town, Goias State, in Brazil.
But - I have my very own alien just down the road.....
He is missing an arm and is held together with duct tape, but, hey, his travels have him a long way from home.
Never give up, never surrender....never give up hope....
And Dear Husband asked the question:
'With all the cell phone cameras and digital cameras how come there aren't better pictures of UFOs???' Good point Dear Husband.
Things I've learned this week:
It was Martin Luther King day down here in the good old U S. of A this last week. What was closed? Banks, all Federal Offices, all State offices etc. What was still open and working? WalMart, restaurants, construction, grocery stores, gardeners digging weeds.....think about this list for a moment, and who the majority of the workers are....... Yes, America - you've certainly come a long way.

The Sun newspaper,in England, will no longer feature topless women on Page Three, the Times has reported.
The Times said it understood Friday's edition of the Sun was the last that would carry images of topless women, although they would continue online.
Page Three has been a Sun feature for 44 years but has been criticised for being sexist and outdated. Ya think!!!!

Pictured below - Chinese soldiers throw snow onto their bodies in temperatures below -30C (-22F) during a winter training session at a military base in Heihe, Heilongjiang province. Apparently to make them...what? Stronger, more manly, smarter.....
In Canada we call this STUPID

There is a website about a cat named Maru...... In which
'Maru Transcends The Very Concept Of Box'
When Maru gets into a box, he apparently, transforms the possibilities of that box. The box becomes an extension of Maru’s self – a specular transmission of his essence.
its a friggin CAT IN A BOX!!!
