Aliens

A couple of summers ago we were driving to Edmonton. It was about 2:30 in the morning. My wife was driving. She was driving the truck and we were pulling a 20 foot tandem axle equipment trailer. We decided to find a place to take a 10 minute break.

We pulled up to this rest stop just outside Whitecourt. It was about 150 yards long and about 30 yards wide. It was brightly lit. The restrooms were on the side near the highway, the lights were on the opposite side of the restrooms.

We pulled up beside the restrooms. My wife and daughter went to the women's can and I walked across the rest area and into the grass and whizzed in the bush at the edge of the rest area. I finished and turned around and started walking back. I was about 25 yards from the truck. All of sudden I sees this thing running from under the truck straight towards me. Phizzzzt !!! Fastern a bat outta hell. It's about 12 inches long sorta rectangularish and furry. It didn't have a tail. It was low to the ground. It looked like a big furry chocolate bar.

So, zip, it's heading straight for me. Thanx to my amazing reflexes I jumped and it missed me and headed off into the bushes.

Now, I don't know what it was. I know it was no squirrel. It weren't no hairy marmmot. It weren't no ring tailed leemur. It weren't no animal I ever seen.

Now I'm not sayin' it was an alien ner nothin'. But consider this, say you was an alien and you were gonna kidnap someone. Wouldn't you be kidnappin' the most intelligent and most physically perfect speciman you could find ? Think about it.
