It has been difficult to even begin to think of anything to write about yesterday, or today, as I am still reeling from the defeat of my Dallas Cowboys, by the "Rams"!?!
It is unfathomable that we are playing so bad, though the intervention by our "stupid" owner, Jerry Jones, on a daily basis, is surely not helping the situation. He should take a long flight with fellow "moronic" sports owners, Al Davis of the Raiders, and Steinbrenner of the Yankees, and never return, which would aid their respective teams, immensely in recovering their greatness, just by virtue of their absence!!
Anyway, I finally found an interesting story at the odd news section of Yahoo News, concerning two U.S. pilots, who were ordered to shoot down a UFO during the Cold War:
Two U.S. fighter planes were scrambled and ordered to shoot down an unidentified flying object (UFO) over the English countryside during the Cold War, according to secret files made public on Monday.
One pilot said he was seconds away from firing 24 rockets at the object, which moved erratically and gave a radar reading like "a flying aircraft carrier." The pilot, Milton Torres, now 77 and living in Miami, said it spent periods motionless in the sky before reaching estimated speeds of more than 7,600 mph (12,000 kph).
After the alert, a shadowy figure told Torres he must never talk about the incident and he duly kept silent for more than 30 years.
