My Predictions

Will an alien space ship visit the Earth on October 14?

Settled as No

No signs of alien life on October 14.

Found a 'non official' source that confirms this (if there were any doubts!)
http://www.ufodigest.com/news/1008/notcoming.html

Background:

A bunch of wackos claim to have been told (by ESP) that a massive alien space craft will over over our planet on Oct 14, and stay a couple of says, imparting a message of peace and harmony (or something like that - see: this particular nutjob for more background: http://www.blossomgoodchild.com). I'm just covering my back here on the off-chance that they are right!!!


Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source.

It must be true – there is photo of some guys marking out a landing site, taken from a spy plane?

Even if one were to visit Earth do you think any of our govenments would acknowledge it? We would have a hard time settling this one.

Probably not dragon; it has to be a REAL UFO... but wait if we identify a UFO as a UFO is it still a UFO because it's identified... but as a UFO...

A ufo is nothing but a unidentified flying object! So if they make a flying object thats unidentified by the masses for the brief stint its in the air then its a ufo.

If I gather some parts, made from Alien material, like a meteorite, and make them into a space ship, would it classify as an Alien space ship? (i am not an Alien)...

Based on the photos, I think the starting odds are way too low.

According to this story...
http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/view/54515/Aliens-will-land-here-tomorrow/

"Extra-terrestrials will make a grand entrance to our planet by flying across our skies in a space craft that will be visible for three days, experts said.

The internet was buzzing with claims that the strange alien aircraft could even land after it appears over the American desert."


"So many people reckon the rumour is true, bookies have stopped taking bets on the UFO"
Wonder what those people would think of the 1% odds here!
And if it's in the middle of the dessert, where nobody sees it, did it happen?

I guess "they" think we're all immune from horror because of variety of space-alien films that some of us can recite. So that makes us ready? Maybe the aliens got impatient waiting for us to 'grow up'.

All i know is those dumb aliens didnt show up on time! Sheesh! Someone needs to teach them some manners! If they are going to behave like that i say we dont let them come to earth! They just gave me a call! they said there going to be a few millenium late and that there sorry.
