do you believe?

Have you ever caught yourself, in the wee hours of the morning, getting stuck on a channel that is airing a show about Area 51 or the latest UFO sighting? Ever since Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds, and likely earlier, it seems we have this fascination in what lies beyond the stars. Scientists and astronomers continue to make remarkable discoveries and, not surprisingly, keep us enamored with their theories on wormholes and how to bend time. I, for one, am a huge geek when it comes to anything related to UFOs, aliens, or ghosts, and I have a sneaking suspicion, I’m not alone. So my question to you is this: Do you believe?
Have you ever been awakened in the night, startled by something unexplained? Have you ever had an alien encounter or experienced a UFO sighting? Do you know of someone who has? We would love to share your story with others. Even if you just want to share a favorite television show or article. My new favorites are Destination Truth and Fact or Faked. We’d love for you to leave your story with us here, on our website. Commenting on our site is very simple, so no excuses. Feeling a little bashful? Just send your email to me: carrie@nakedcitywichita.com. I believe. As a believer I will be respectful of your anonymity if you so wish. My fascination is incurable. I’ll be happy to share a few of my stories with you as well.
You go first. ;o)

I think you mean “astronomer”, not “astrologist”.

Of course that’s what I meant. I’m glad someone is reading this! Have you had any experiences you’d like to share?

14 years ago one of my GTA’s at Wichita State took me to his office to review my English paper. Mid-assignment he took out his wallet and handed me an ID card. He let me look at it for awhile.
Dead serious, he looked at me and said, “Do you know what that means?”
Me, “Uhhhhhhh….”
“I am a first responder when there has been an alien abduction. Do you believe it happens?”
“Uhhhhhhh….” (Get me the F outta this suddenly too tiny office!)
“It happens all the time, you know? People just don’t talk about it because they’re afraid no one will believe them or that people will think they’re crazy.”
“Can we just finish my paper, please?”
He was upset but he let me go. After I left his office he never mentioned it again. I was totally freaked out the rest of the semester. I swear to God he was not just some GTA bent on making an ass of a freshman. He was totally serious.
