Oldtime UFO Reports 1

Hello TAL readers - thanks for checking in. I have any number of UFO reports from NJ MUFON Investigator Ken Pfeifer and I bring them to both my UFO blog and elsewhere that I blog. Knowing that TAL readers would also like an occasional shot of KP's reports - I'd thought I'd start that today:
--------------------------------------
CLOSE ENCOUNTER BY SISTERS IN BORING OREGON

7-7-89 BORING OREGON

My sister and I are from Boring Oregon. That is where we lived at the time we saw this UFO!  We were young kids myself about 9 or 10, my sister 2 years older than I.  We always enjoyed sleeping outside in the summer, so the night of the sighting was like any other night.  We got our beds ready on the front patio of the house which our house was a good sized 2 story home with big sliding glass doors on the front of the house which is were the patio is and where we chose to sleep that night. The view from sleeping on the patio was an unobstructed view of the night sky. There were trees on the outskirts of my vision, but from a laying position I could see about all of the night sky.  I fell asleep with no problems that I can remember, and then I remember waking up to take the covers off my face, and when I did I was lying on my back and I opened my eyes to see the whole previously unobstructed night sky being taken up by this UFO!  The UFO was right over the top of us.  If felt like we were directly under the middle of it. Its height was very low and it seemed to be just over the topped off tree!  It was so close I could of thrown a rock and hit it.  With it being so close I remember I could see the different textures and see shadows casting off those textures on to the craft . I can't recall direct lights in my eyes but the thing seemed to be illuminated by a soft dark light glow. I remember feeling like I was looking at someone that was looking at me but I did not see anyone.  It was very steady and not moving.   It just seemed to be hanging there. I did not even here any noises and it was so big and close.  So all that was about a minute of observing the UFO.  I then woke up my sister by shaking her. When she woke up we both got another look at it and then  threw the covers over our head.  I was very curious so I looked again and as I uncovered my head I just caught the thing with hardly any movement.   The craft was very fast and effortlessly.  Went from right over my heads to a little bigger than a big star way up into the sky, and then disappeared.  The only noise it made when it moved was a swish like the noise of the wind and air moving.  I was in shock when we saw it and I don't really remember anything right after the sighting like falling back asleep or what we did?  I find that really weird also cause knowing me as a child my first reaction would be run screaming for my mom and I don't even remember if I went back to sleep, went inside or anything till the next morning when we both told our parents. They were amazed by the story but kinda in disbelief.  They had us separately draw what we saw. I have thought about that every day since it happened and am very interested In learning more.

TWO AMAZING PHOTOS OF A UFO OVER PITTSBURG PENNSYLVANIA

8-29-11 PITTSBURG PENNSYLVANIA           MUFON CASE 31317

Last night around 9:15 I went to smoke a cigarette on my front porch before heading to bed. I have a straight shot of open sky off my front porch and could see a light that looked like a bright star. Then it started moving closer towards my house and it kept getting brighter and brighter. It was all alone until it was almost over my house then it seemed like out of no where 2 airplane like figures appeared beside it and behind it, constantly changing positions. The airplanes had red and green lights on the side. I convinced myself it was just two planes meeting up with something else to refuel. I snapped two different picture. One as it was approaching my house, which in the picture, you can see it was going fast enough to cause i tail behing it. Then another when it was above my house. The photo on my phone just made it look like a dot on my small cell screen but when i uploaded it on my computer you can see it is a circle and very bright. There were tons of stars out last night and none of them were bright enough for my camera to pick up but this is clear as day. It went over the hill behind my house and I went inside assuming it was gone. So I posted something on Facebook about it and 20 minutes later my neighbor replied they went outside and looked and it was there again, followed by someone 2 miles in the opposite direction of where I last saw the "thing" headed that it was also over their house. That is what really got me thinking. It if were jets refueling would they be circling a town or headed in a straight path to their destination. I don't know much about that kind of stuff, but I would bet money that was not planes refueling.  The light on this object was almost as if it were a high powered search light but the light never pointed down to the ground it just surrounded the object.

How about a `science' look and reasoning about the Bigfoot phenomena.... with a great line IMO.... all unlikelihoods are not created Equal .... (tying this logic into the traces of real evidence for the Giant Squid)... reported TOO many times to exist.... by such logic ... where does `science' stand on UFO's or the anomalous?

Talk About Body Stereotypes!

I've discovered a new Subreddit called data is beautiful - and indeed, just looking at data visually yields confirmations and insights into many subjects.......today it's FOOTBALL body shapes. A natural for fans of The AnomalyMan Listing:

And, finally - a find in Georgia (Asian) may be re-writing how folks understand `early mankind'. As you are aware... a slowly building consensus has been that a LONG time ago - say over 1/2 a million years ago .. that any number of `species' of humanlike beings were in existence... Well, Consider This. Good 2 minute final read.
