It was a bright and clear night.

I was just about to finish wallpapering my living room with leaflets from the

May 1954 issue of Popular Mechanics (How to build your own radio special)

when all of a sudden there was a loud whining sound directly coming from above my roof.

 

I grabbed my Dale Evans shotgun and bolted out the front door faster than

Ed Hocoli can gift wrap a victory for the Denver Broncos. At first I couldn't

see anything but soon my eyes were able to make out the faint outline of a

flying saucer that must have been phasing in and out of our time continuu ...

our time conttinnuu...our... dimension.

 

Before I could take a shot at them they used some sort of immobilizing tractor beam

thingy on me and I was slowly deposited inside the alien craft. My bones and muscles

started to get warm as I felt the eerie effects of the immobilizer doohickey wear off.

 

My shotgun was taken from my hands much to my chagrin as the famous bumper

sticker slogan flashed before my eyes. It was indeed a sad state of affairs.

 

My captors had lightly tan to orangish skin tone and would seem like very ordinary

men but with embarrassing "bottle sun tans" hastily applied.

 

They would point to me and talk amongst themselves with occasional outbursts of

what seemed like laughter then followed by a sudden regaining of composure.

Their language was totally undecipherable but seemed to rely heavily on a low pitched

"ooohhhhkk" sound which seemed to be followed by slight whistle at the end of statements.

 

A blood sample was taken from my left arm but I did not feel any intrusion. During my

stay on board there was some sort of night-shift coming on duty and one alien began

wiping down the counters and various devices. Then I believe they took a call from

their supreme commander or some such VIP as they all began to run about moving

things back and forth in an effort to "look busy" while someone talked loudly to them

on some sort of wide screen TV. When the screen turned off they all seemed to relax a bit.

 

A short guy was analyzing my shotgun when he accidentally fired it.

The noise was extremely loud and I used this opportunity to grab my shotgun out of

the aliens grip and made my way to the door. I pushed several buttons and one of

them opened the door. I jumped out and landed on my roof.

 

At this point the spacecraft lifted straight up into the atmosphere and I lost sight of it.

 

My neighbor came over and stood in my drive way. He noticed that I was on the roof

and he shouted up to me and asked if I could keep the noise down as he was trying to

take a nap. I took this opportunity to ask him to step into my garage and get the

ladder so that I could get down. Upon picking up the ladder my neighbor realized

that it was his ladder and that I had neglected to return it to him.

 

How embarrassing.

It took you this long to bust out of Arkham? (shrug)
:hi: So when will Nik get this thread locked? :cloud9:

There's no telling. He's liable to go off half cocked at any moment. You know those Greeks. :whistle:

 

What have you been up to? I need a new Halloween costume. :insane:

Last month I was the motivational speaker for a couple of guys named Lehman, but they seemed preoccupied. :gossip:
