Life in Wales

[gerisullivan]

On my way home from the Transfer Station, I stopped by the Wales Market for a munchie fix. There's what looks like a new sign in the window, just to the left of the door. It reads:

"Please report any UFO activity by email:
WalesMA@[ISPdeleted].com

A.I.D.F. - Alien Invasion Defense Force
Defending earth from Extraterrestrial invasion from the
Center of the Modern Universe, Wales, MA 01081"

Great sign! The woman running the store tonight assured me it's not a joke. Better yet, two guys on the town's Finance Committee are the ones behind it. They're very scientific, very educated, she assured me. Their beliefs are based on a lot of scientific information.

Neither of them were present, so that's all I can report at this time. I do have one question -- is a mysterious change in the appearance of my LJ friends page a sign of UFO activity?

I will also observe that if Wales is the Center of the Modern Universe, it's vital that both minnehaha's visit soonestkind and arrange for a way to move it.

Did you want to arrange for an overflight by Martain Defense Forces?

Or — and this would be more difficult — a visit by a Combat Rescue team of the Martian League of Assassins?

Hey, your questions prompted an idea! I must have the Combat Rescue artwork around here someplace.... What we need are a handful of Combat Rescue jackets, and a few compatriots to join me at the town's annual meeting in May....

But, yes, an overflight in the meanwhile would be most excellent indeed. Thank you!

(Thank you, too, for your most thoughtful note and the book. It's doing an excellent job of helping me think about interesting things. More on this later, or so go my intentions, at least!)

Believe it or not, I still have a handful of the original badges that members of the Combat Rescue Team wore last time they visited Earth. But jackets would be awesome.

I await with bated breath the fulfillment of your intentions...
