According to several UK tabloid newspapers (so it must be true:dubious:) Aliens are to arrive tomorrow. ET will make a grand entrance by flying across our skies in a space craft that will be visible for 3 days…it could even land after it appears over an American desert. The harbinger of this great joy is an American psychic, Blossom Goodchild who claims the aliens informed her of their plans. She said that they come in love and to help us move to a higher vibration of love. Does this mean giant vibrators or what? ---

We should hold a sweep on what will be their excuse when the prediction fails. My bet: They were there for everyone to see, but invisible. ---

I was reading it. But I didn’t seem to have anything much worthwhile to say on the matter that wouldn’t have just been ‘I like black pudding’. I like liver too - I browned some onions and bacon the other day, then added one of those little pots of chicken livers, fried until brown, then finished with brandy and some chopped fresh herbs. My taste buds thought they had died and gone to offal heaven. ---

Higher vibration of love? Bah. Whatever happened to the days when aliens were cold-blooded killing machines who wanted to enslave humanity? These aliens today just aren’t cutting it. ---

Why is it always a higher vibration of love, and never a higher vibration of _bacon_? ---
