It'll Never Fly

Clever… not good, but clever.

Solway Firth, 1964I was trying to find the pictures taken by the Art Bell guest I mentioned a few months ago, and came across this site that has photos of UFOs and aliens that are, get this, sorted by authenticity.

My favourite is the one pictured on the left. If I could, I’d make the caption “Intel Inside.” I mean, you can almost here the guy saying, in a comically perky British accent, “Hello!”

My other favourite is a little lower down from that picture, where the caption, which is the only thing we have to go on, reads, “Source and story unknown, but probably authentic.”

Priceless.

    You know, for a second there, I thought your parents put you in a dress for your next picture. I was a touch concerned…

    LOL. You know, I didn’t even think of that. I’ll have to be more careful in the future. That, coupled with the spaceman growing out of my head, would’ve made a real conversation piece at dinner parties… ;)

    Hi, I have done a fair bit of research on the Solway/Cumberland Spaceman on my site.

    I live near to the Solway Firth where the photo was taken. The photographer, Jim Templeton passed away recently.
