Well, if you look at size and age it may well be that we are the only ones at this moment in time.Gerry Cullen wrote:Considering the size of the universe is it not just a tad arrogent to assume that we are the only life form?
There is so much creation and destruction going on in the universe and there has been since the dawn of time. Considering the dawn of time is a helluva long way back, it may well be that we are the only "freak of nature" around at this particular astronomical second.
Hell at the rate we are going, we probably won´t be around long enough to find out anyway.
“Kinda Biblical”..!!!….…for… sure…..cowboy wrote:Sorry guys, but I was living in Roswell New Mexico, just South of Area 51, at the time, and Neil and "Buzz" landed in my back yard (back yards are Really Big in New Mexico).
They stayed awhile, put up a flag, took some pictures, used my Loo a few times, and left on a piller(sp) of fire.
Kinda Biblical in a way....and in New Mexico, you tend to read the bible and talk to God alot....(no newspapers to read and no one much else talk to....).
BTW, did Nixon win the election?
WOW…. the ultimate UFO….
BTW, did Nixon win the election?….don’t remember…but he was bad-ass big-time (I saw the movie)
Late one night, an alien spacecraft landed near a deserted gas station.
After a bit, one of the aliens came down the ramp, looked around, and walked over to one of the gas pumps, where he demanded
"Earthling! Take me to your leader!"
The gas pump, of course, did not reply.
The alien became agitated and again demanded
"Take me to your leader!"
The gas pump remained silent.
Frustrated, the alien went back to the spacecraft where he was confronted by the captain:
"Report."
"I contacted an earthling - he would not cooperate."
"Hmmm. I will deal with this earthling myself."
"Yes sir. Be careful sir, I have a feeling there could be trouble."
The captain left the ship and approached the gas pump.
"Earthling, you will cooperate. Take me to your leader."
The gas pump remained unresponsive.
"Very well."
The captain drew his blaster.
"If you do not respond by the count of three, I shall be forced to fire on you.
One.
Two.
Three."
ZZZZZT. WHAM!
The gas pump exploded, knocking the alien ass over teakettle.
The captain jumped up and got back to the ship as fast as his whatevers would propel him.
"Quickly! Make ready to depart!"
"Yes sir. What happened sir?"
"I fired on the earthling and it responded very forcefully."
"Sorry sir, I was afraid that might happen."
"How did you know that there would be trouble?"
"Well sir, I assumed that anyone who can take his dick, wrap it around his feet and stick it in his left ear is probably going to be one bad bastard."
( Of course, we all know that they had a Close Encounter with a Texas Gas Pump )

Ok, ok, ok...............
I'll try again.......
An astronomer is on an expedition to Darkest Africa to observe a total eclipse of the sun.
However, our Intreped Hero is captured by cannibals.
The eclipse is due the next day around noon.
To gain his freedom he plans to pose as a god and threaten to extinguish the sun if he's not released, but the timing has to be just right.
So, in the few words of the cannibals' primative tongue that he knows, he asks his guard what time they plan to kill him.
The guard's answer is,
"Tradition has it that captives are to be killed when the sun reaches the highest point in the sky on the day after their capture so that they may be cooked and ready to be served for the evening meal".
"Great", the astronomer replies.
The guard continues, though, "But because everyone's so excited about it, in your case we're going to wait until after the eclipse."
Batta-Boom
