<DIV class=sh>"Man auctions ad space on forehead"</DIV>
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4161413.stm

Not only a cunning idea, but the image in the article is inspired:

User posted image

"This model shows how the forehead advert could work", a.k.a. picture of random person with text photoshopped onto their face. News journalism at it's finest.

Shame he was completely off the mark with America and the West. India are the eeeevil alien dealing overlords!

I smell combine all over this story.

Edit - is that guy a fool? The big money people will never pay for
that, and it's only him who's gonna be stuck with some second rate
slogan tattooed across his forehead. Only in America, I swear :razz:

Branding your advertisement logo on a man who lives in Nebraska is a bit redundant, don't you think?

It could actually be a good money spinner if it caught on amongst the
b-z list celebs, such as big brother ex-contestants, and other gimps
worshipped by chavs and 12 year old girls, they get plenty of media
attention. (If it does I'm setting up "I'm a tosser Ltd." and bidding
for the ad space on the freakishly small faced guy out of busted.

Listen, I'm not interested in phoney UFO stories, I'm interested in documented, admitted, evident resources of information regarding the history of the New World Order, methods used by dictators and the activity of the globalist elite.

<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">
?Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful. This is especially true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government.? -- Henry Kissinger speaking at Evian, France, May 21, 1992 Bilderburgers meeting. Unbeknownst to Kissinger, his speech was taped by a Swiss delegate to the meeting.

[/quote]
The whole UFO scenario is being hyped up and they will probably one day orchistrate a phoney 'alien' or 'threat from beyond' type invasion that forces us into submission and acceptance of a New World Order to 'help save us from the evil baddies from out of space'. Sounds crazy doesnt it? Well thats what they are already doing with terrorism. They are fundind, hiring and sometimes orchistrating acts of terrorism to enable them to step up the level of control to something that resembles a total 'police state'.

If they can con the masses into believing in the threat from the middle east, I'm sure the 'threat from mars' will seem like light work.

People believe the propoganda and as a result get enslaved by the fascist system.
I hate yuppies btw :biggrin:

Frag, apparently your government and the Russians know about some Mayan predicition
relating to the earths crust splitting (hence the recent tsunami) on
the approach to 2012.

That India daily site is full of absolute gold if you have a look
round, seems they only report far fetched conspiracy theories or
historical suspicions and stuff.

Weird :smile:

Do people actually believe those UFO stories? The Roswell incident, BTW, was actually a weather balloon that got struck by lightning and fell to earth. Even though this has been confirmed by both Roswell and Nellis, people still think it's an alien spaceship (idiots).

Fox, there are people who still,
honestly, think that the world is flat.

And like many other
crazies, their explanation is: "It's a government
cover-up"

However, that article dealt with the idea is
more realistic way possible. It would make the most sense that a
more-so intelligent being(s) would contact the major governments
(possibly the least violent ones too) for litigations.

In some ways I agree with what you are saying. If you think about it, if the Roswell Incident is such a government cover-up how come no one has ever been killed for talking about it as they are usually 'threated with death'.

Also, if you watch the nonsense on cable TV that goes on about UFOS and aliens, notice how Roswell is thee most hyped up subject.

I believe the story was an orchistrated hoax to allow for all the 'imminant alien threat' propoganda and phoney UFO stories.

I'm not saying there is no such thing as aliens, common sense suggests that there are, it's just jumping the gun somewhat saying that they use flying saucers to get here...

Your all fewls... especially you Jahzel... If someone gets assassinated by the government then no one ever knows... thats the point! They make a realistic story to cover it up and s**t- use your brain please!

Stuff about UFO's is quite pheasable- it is when the media get it and public that it gets out of hand. Anyone ever looked on the net on how to build your own flying saucer? It's interesting- I found one website that shows you how to make a bit of tin foil levetate when connected to a power source using magnetic fields and stuff, really cool stuff.

The saucer shape is only that way because it is an aerodynamic shape. Smooth on all sides and a cutting edge to get into atmospheres. The newer triangular design I'm not so sure of to be honest.

I do believe there are aliens, it would be very remarkable otherwise. But if there are any aliens within 10 light years of here, we would soon know about it. And if they're even further away, why the hell would they travel that far to get here???

The Roswell crash was a weather ballon. Area 51 is a military airstrip. There are no aliens there nor anywhere else on Earth.
