Nick was about five years old at the time the photo was taken.<br /><br />He writes, in part:<br /><br /><blockquote>He made me a model flying saucer out of balsa wood, an old plastic breakfast-cereal bowl, silver paint, and tripod landing gear from plastic bottle lids. He then hung the Venusian scout-craft on our clothes-line and snapped the picture.You can just see a bit of the clothes-line top right. The picture remained in a cupboard at my dad's house for years, until he brought it over to me a couple of years ago on one of his visits to see us. I think it looks pretty good, and no sign of the wire (or whatever it was) holding it up!</blockquote>Machttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11074004681516756703noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236365971547336505.post-71388344687869154102008-09-23T22:07:00.000-07:002008-09-23T22:12:59.882-07:00That's the spirit!<CENTER><br /><IMG SRC=http://www.mactonnies.com/saucer/vacuumufo_01.jpg><br /></CENTER><br /><br />It's a relief to discover that someone aside from me has discovered the profound <a href="http://www.137.com/celebrity">link between UFOs and vacuum cleaners</a>.Machttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11074004681516756703noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236365971547336505.post-13231074907839213702008-09-22T00:37:00.000-07:002008-09-22T00:55:02.108-07:00Motherships!<CENTER><br /><IMG SRC=http://www.mactonnies.com/saucer/decodisks_01.jpg><br /></CENTER><br /><br />If there's anything more inspiring than the unexpected sight of an extraterrestrial mothership floating serenely overhead, it's the sight of said mothership emitting a way-cool neon glow.Machttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11074004681516756703noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236365971547336505.post-10406530121093215512008-09-15T22:15:00.000-07:002008-09-15T22:17:02.917-07:00Mirror-shine<CENTER><br /><IMG SRC=http://www.mactonnies.com/saucer/chromeufo_01.jpg><br /></CENTER><br /><br />The ufonauts tooling around in this one sure know how to bring the bling.Machttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11074004681516756703noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236365971547336505.post-5787309914173117372008-09-12T19:30:00.000-07:002008-09-12T23:19:05.770-07:00Send your photos!<CENTER><br /><IMG SRC=http://www.mactonnies.com/saucer/redfern_01.jpg><br /></CENTER><br /><br />TTLLFC is looking for photos of objects that might plausibly masquerade as flying saucers (or other alien spacecraft).
