UFO Over the Desert

"I was heading back to work after a late lunch. Just as I opened my car door, I noticed a strange weather anomaly, forming in the sky over the desert some 70 to 100 miles away. We see storms develop out there all the time, and it can be a beautiful sight, as long as the storm is over the desert and we are here in Murrieta. However, What I saw was rather unusual. A circular space was forming in a patch of high clouds, with a rapidly changing puff of cloud building in the center.

"Thinking I was catching the absolute beginning of a thunderstorm, I pulled out my old Sony Mavica to snap a picture. I was going to send it to the weatherman on a local network affiliate, who likes to show pictures of strange weather patterns during his segment. So I took the picture, and waited for a couple of seconds for the thumbnail to appear (the camera is an old model that saves its images to a 3.5" floppy disk. The screen goes black when the picture is taken and I have to wait to see the image).

"I nearly dropped the camera when I saw the thumbnail image on my Mavica's screen. There in the middle of the clear space was a saucer-shaped vehicle. I know I didn't see the saucer with my naked eyes, nor did it appear on the screen when I framed the shot. Yet there it was, captured on disk! It seemed to be pushing the high clouds apart, but the new 'storm' cloud was forming right beneath it. Soon afterwards, that same cloud became a powerful storm that sent flash floods through the southern canyons and desert. Could this picture be proof that extraterrestrials are manipulating our weather?

"[Truth: The clouds in the picture are all that are real. It was a new thunderstorm brewing, and thunderstorms always send flashfloods through the canyons and deserts out here, so there is no great stretching of truth in that regard. The rest? Well... 3-D modeling and Photoshop can work wonders.]"

Eight legged freaks: is this the worst spider bite


Hey, do you reckon that this guy needs to see a doctor, it seems that he has been bitten by one of those eight legged freaks, yes that’s right a spider. Hey I don’t mind admitting that I am scared of these things, and looking at that wound can you blame me. The bite is about 3cm (1.5 inches) across, and it elevated to almost half an inch.

Have you seen a worse spider bite than this?
