Aliens put George Bush in the Oval Office!

UFOs & Bogus Science

Evidently they don't see flying saucers in South Africa. The author suggested their mission ended when they arranged for Bush to become president.

One lady, who was forever being lifted into spaceships by her waist by amorous Venusians, showed me several pictures she had taken of flying saucers.

"But that's a straw sun hat that somebody's spun into the air," I said. "And this one's a Chevrolet hubcap!"

She was unabashed and I realised years later that, unwittingly, she probably invented the Frisbee.

One young woman claimed to have been seduced by various aliens. She went for rides, if you'll excuse the phrase, in space ships whose control room always glowed a greenish colour.

The men (there were never women aboard flying saucers as far as I recall) always dressed in tight silver suits. She even persuaded a woman's magazine to publish her adventures with some very hazy pictures.

And remember Paul Adamski* and his book Flying Saucers Have Landed? Whenever he went into the Arizona Desert (for flying saucers never land in people's gardens or, say, in one's local Pick 'n Pay car park) he would hardly have time to put his shades on when the first flying saucer would land.

UFO mission accomplished: Earthlings get Bush

* He means George Adamski who was an exceptional looney-toon, saucer nuts have rarely been funnier.
