I have to disagree. I sent a copy over to the Society of The Saskatchewan
Friends of Andy Warhol and they told me that it looked frightfully like a
minor piece of re-entered Skylab wreckage grazed by a bottle of linseed oil
ultramarine blue #2.

In an attempt to remain under budget, such markings were often used by NASA in
the early 70's. In a possibly related story indigenous to that decade, a
number of "life-like" decals were stolen from the official Mission Impossible
fan club, known for its profuse collection of props from the TV series.

That is Jennifer Lopez' backside. As we all know, she has a summer vacation
home on Tobin Lake in Nipawin and, for fun, will put any number of things on
her backside. As for the famous water tower of Nipawin, it appeared nowhere in
the shot.

IMO, it's a prime candidate for the Identified *Landed* Object file (a
comparatively smaller manila envelope).

The only reason I can think of why people say this is to reassure themselves,
because it doesn't affect me in the way they seem to intend. IMO, anyone who
needs to say this has just blasted to smithereens any amount of respect or
trust I might have happened to have toward such an individual. There is
clearly a conspiracy here that is worth unraveling!
