I could see it all now…


CNN REPORTS -  
THE CITY OF WILKES-BARRE IS UNDER ATTACK BY INVISIBLE ALIENS THIEVES FROM OUTER SPACE!


Being a science fiction fan, I have seen hundreds of movies with aliens from outer space coming to earth for various reasons.  But, not one of them ever even remotely suggested that the aliens would be invisible thieves that smash windows and  break into cars; striking in the  light of day, around crowds of people and loads of cameras and not being seen at all.

What, oh what, could they be doing with our purses, IPods, stereos, CD’s and GPS systems in these far off galaxies ?

Sounds crazy?  It is the only plausible answer I can come with. How could all this be happening over and over right under our noses?  Public Square, Park and Lock Central, Wilkes and Kings parking lot, Main Street, etc. and no one sees them?
Well, here it is… If you have a better idea.. let me know.

  1. Oh, those clever aliens! They are probably learning the value of money, how to moon walk like Michael Jackson, someone rest his soul. They are enjoying the sport of petty thievery and will probably remain here on Planet Earth - at least until we blow ourselves up.
