#1 Ya know, the thing is, I think the aliens exist, but there's really no such thing as galactic welfare.

#2 There's a starman,
waiting in the sky.
He'd like to come and met us,
but he thinks it'd blow our mind.

#6 Condor Guy, those are just ducted fan vehicles.

I suspect that all "UFO photos" that show discs and aren't ducted fan vehicles are basically hoaxes. I'll explain later, I gotta mangle some more luggage.

#7 I have a wild UFO story Thing...

Basically... in the early 70s I was messing with a souped up he-ne laser and... mmm well...
when I met the ex-police chopper pilot 8 yrs later at a wedding and discovered he had a life changing experience the same night I was playing with my laser... and said experience on the same night, within meters of me, in his bubble police chopper, caused him to drop everything and become a true believing UFO researcher... well... besides the cost to my KARMA... I quickly understood that UFO stuff was total and complete BS!

I need some compensating KARMA?
Shipman ... will your ceiling cat grant me some?

#8 Of course he gained much KARMA by not turning ever again within feet of our dorm rooms at night...
Sleep was fine from then on.
