TEXAS TOWN SOLICITES INTERSTELLAR TOURISM

Recently, UFO sightings in southern Texas has run rampant. Locals have been capturing them on video and cell-phones more than the paparazzi have shot Brad and Angelina. The interesting thing is that the UFOs captured on film do NOT all look alike. This has given the impression that there were more than one of them possibly looking for a place to land and something to do. The town of Stephenville, Texas has taken this to heart. They are providing discounts, and welcoming incentives for any aliens that would like to stop, land and visit their little community. One place, a fried chicken restaurant is even advertising free parking for spaceships. Another is providing discounts but the aliens must show IDs. One claims to have a spaceship mechanic on duty for break downs. Where did they get him? Area 51? I’m not sure inviting aliens to your hometown is all that well thought out. Have these people seen Independence Day? War of the Worlds? Invasion of the Body Snatchers? One of the local taverns has a sign: Aliens welcome. We don’t know what alcohol could do to these creatures. We thought drunk driving was a problem. A drunk alien, angry at a bar patron may not just go out to the vehicle and come back with a gun. It could start an interstellar war. We all remember the bar scene in Star Wars, light sabers, blasters, this could get ugly. What about drunk alien pilots? “Pilot to tower, Pilot to tower, we have a UFO coming straight for us. He’s not moving. He’s still coming at us. Oh god he’s going to hit us. No, he swerved at the last second. We’re Ok tower, we’re OK.” Once they get here, who says they’re going to leave. This could present a whole new illegal alien problem for Texas. Remember “Men in Black,” they put them all to work in the post office. Your Christmas gifts could end up on Mars. I think Stephenville should rethink this invitation. If aliens are coming here, they need to apply for passports and visas just like everybody else.
