"Oh look! What is that????"

Have any of you seen (or seen and heard) anything unexplainable?

What was it? What was it like?

All of my own experiences pertain to engines, but somewhere, some time - many of us must have seen something strange or odd...

A long time ago...remember the first Space station? Well, you could actually see it orbiting the earth..it was much larger than the average satellite. One nite we were out in the yard, watching for satellites when here comes the space station..we thought. It came about half way acrtoss the sky..as per normal... then suddenly, made a 90 degree turn south, without slowing down or nothing...just poof..right turn Clyde... and just rolled off out of sight. And no... we weren't drinking or anything else.

I've seen a member that posts unexplainable threads quite a bit. Does that qualify? j/k

Consider this the "AM COAST TO COAST" thread at FTE. Anything goes, just don't get political or religeous.

(Guidance factor)

A lot of us drive for long hours across country, and we see many a strange thing. And many live in places where strange things are said to happen - such as Gulf Port Florida.

What have you personally seen?

Wolfie... ask us to explain something a bit easier. You are inexplicable. ( I think that's the word I wanted to use in a facetious manner.)

Ive "seen" plenty of strange things when hiking into the deer woods at 3:30 am to set up camp for the hunt, my buddys and I walk a good half a mile into the wilderness. along the way you see and hear some pretty freaky stuff. i just remember that im carryin my shotgun so if bigfoot or a warewolf want to tango they're going down

Yeah, freaky stuff usually can be found in the woods after 2:00 AM. I've never really had one of those "holy crap what is that?" moments of seeing inexplicable things. I watched Fire in the Sky and War of the Worlds today, though, and I've got quite a bit of cough/cold medicine in me, so I'm sure I'm in for some good dreams, however.....
