Brits Blame UFO For Damaging Wind Turbine
By Wyatt Earp | January 9, 2009
Alan B, would you care to explain the insanity of your countrymen?
LONDON – Debate erupted on Thursday over who or what caused the mysterious destruction of a giant wind turbine in northern England – with everything from UFOs to the freezing winter weather taking the blame.
I blame George Bush and Karl Rove!
Residents of Conisholme in Lincolnshire discovered that a 72-foot (21.9-metre) long metal blade has been torn off a turbine at their local wind farm while another has been badly damaged.
Some residents reported seeing strange lights streaking towards the wind farm, prompting speculation a UFO collided with one of the 213-foot tall turbines, newspaper reports said. It was unclear exactly when the crash would have occurred.
Don’t believe it? Well, if you can’t take the word of this witness/turkey farmer Robert Palmer, then who can you believe?
Local councillor and turkey farmer Robert Palmer said he saw a bright white light with an orange edge as he drove close to the turbine on Sunday morning.
“I am not counting it out that it was a UFO,” said Palmer, who wants local authorities to investigate what caused the mangled metal. (H/T – AFP)
Here is the most logical explanation:
Aliens are continually monitoring events here on Earth, and are in constant contact with their representative, Al Gore. Gore realized that Britain’s wind turbines, while responsible for the decrease in “global warming,” were also responsible for taking away Gore’s environmentalist wacko spotlight.
This could not stand.
So, Gore sent a signal to his Mother Ship, asking them to destroy the wind turbine for the good of all humanity. The Mother Ship – on orders from Ron Paul – dispatched a Cylon Raider to Conisholme and blasted the turbine with tracer rounds – which would explain the strange lights. Having completed its mission, the Raider returned to the Mother Ship to await Gore’s instructions.
Any questions?

I blame Prince Charles.
These aren’t the droids your looking for.
He can go about his business.
Move along.
Wyatt,I think you gave a perfectly logical explanation,which lets you know how really screwed up I seem to be these days……LOL!
Makes sense to me. Out of the 100 perfectly logical reasons seems like one crazy reason is as good as another. MUD
Maybe the aliens just had really bad gas and it overpowered the turbines.
The Marshall said: Alan B, would you care to explain the insanity of your countrymen?
In a single word, no.
Would you care to explain the insanity of YOUR explanation?
On a marginally more serious note, why not the thirst for publicity?
Who in the US would have known about Conisholme oe even Lincolnshire? Who would have known about a turkey farmer and local councillor,Robert Palmer?
Now the whole world knows that at least a few people in rural England are attention seekers. Unlike anyone, of course, in the USA …
My bad For “oe” read “or”
Cylon raider! January 16, BSG airs again!
