Brushes with the unexplained

[sweetpea]

When I get around to it..Why don't you entertain us with some more anecdotes about members in the meantime?

Skip that for a mo, how about this...
'' With my job, sometimes, as long as I do a certain number of hours a day, I can start and go when I please. It was a snowy dark morning (about 5.00am) when I set off walking to work. Although I live in a city there was no one about at that time. One part of my walk involved going down a long road on either side of which are tall old brick walls. I had not long before seen behind these walls. There use to be very old warehouses which had recently been pulled down, and when out of curiosity I had the chance to peep through the old gates, on both sides of the road, I could see vast cleared spreads of flat land behind the walls, which looked odd in a city. Walking along I was looking ahead and now and again behind (city living) and I noticed the quietness for that time of day, there was nothing around to make a noise. Well, here's the funny part, I heard a loud long horse whinny.''
Not much of a story, but it should fit in with the rest here. Want to question me about it? Sorry, like your cut & paste posts no one here gets the chance to question the people in your posts. So, don't bother asking.

I didn't read it. Don't really have time..

Of course you haven't, not since I fooled you here...

THIS is true...

A few years back I went to bed wondering about something to do with my work. It must of worried me because at sometime during the night I think I woke-up to get out of bed to make a note. Writing the note I remember there was someone standing beside me, I remember the sound of their breathing. Now, come morning there was the note...just scribble not even letters. So it was not a dream, but who was that standing beside me?

I got another true one but I'm sleeping alone tonight and I don't want to dwell on the memory of that one until daylight.

Thanks for the ''like'' back then.

Well, as I said later in that thread back then, I was trying for three of your 'likes''. but I blew me game.
I will let you have the last word, because that's the kinda guy I am.

The story is an allegory. The ark is a metaphor.

Hmm...not really , there was a flood , catastrophic flood .

But since the Ark is unrealistic , in the sense of full physical life forms of all types are on board this boat .

It is more realistic that this ark held the genetics of all life forms .

So, let me get this right.

You have endless amounts of time to trawl the internet looking for unverifiable ghost stories and tales of close encounters with UFOs, but you can't find the time to read one paragraph on sciforums?

LOL! That's why I don't have time. I'm always trawling.

Maybe you can help me.

Are you merely trolling here, or are you proselytising?

I'm busy trawling right now..
