Brendy - Thanks for the compliment.

I looked up the two addresses you listed. Very interesting. By golly, maybe it is "side-hill gougers" making some of those crop circles! Ha Ha. Do the males run clockwise or counter-clockwise?

As for the other one, on those guys who spend their free nights creating beautiful crop circles...pretty impressive. Downright astounding, in fact. It's almost more extraordinary in a sense than if aliens had done it. I mean, look at the time and trouble involved. It doesn't surprise me that they can't find women who want to do this. I've noticed all my life that women are generally a whole lot more mature than men (with some notable individual exceptions, of course).

Curiously enough, the hoaxers seem to have had some UFO encounters themselves lately. Stranger and stranger...maybe the aliens are trying to figure out who is making crop circles and why. Ha ha. If so, they no doubt think it's a religious ritual of some kind.

I had some friends once who went to a great deal of trouble creating what appeared to be a comatose body lying on a road at night, just around a hairpin turn. They made a dummy with some clothing and stuffing and laid it across the road. Meanwhile, another guy hid in the bushes dressed exactly like the dummy. In due course of time a car came around the corner and ran over the dummy. The driver screeched to a halt 15 or 20 feet down the road. The dummy was whisked off in an instant by a pull rope, and the non-dummy quickly lay in the road in its place. My friends had conveniently made tire marks across his clothing beforehand, one across his chest, and one across his legs.

The driver came rushing over, yelling "Oh my God, oh my God..."

As the poor man bent down to take a closer look, the supposed victim stood up, dusted off his clothing, and said "Why the hell don't you watch where you're driving!" He then walked away, leaving a very upset, virtually incoherent man standing in the road.

My sick friends thought this was pretty funny, but they were only 17 at the time, so I guess I can forgive them.

So, that was a hoax. A well planned one. Like the crop circles those guys did. However, not every body lying across a road is therefore a hoax. Perhaps the same can be said of crop circles...or UFO's...or anything else unusual that you could care to mention.
