About This Item

"...in peace and goodwill"

Starman, E.T., My Favorite Martian; they all wanted to go back to their home worlds. This friendly "visitor to a small planet" wants to see all the places where his off-world colleagues have allegedly been seen: Roswell; Exeter; Aveley in Essex, U.K.; Sweden, where the "ghost rockets" were seen in 1946 and any others you can think of or discover. "The decision rests... with you." And don't forget those places where aliens friendly and otherwise, such as Devil's Tower, Arizona's Barringer Meteor Crater, Washington, D.C. (numerous times) and virtually everyplace in Japan ;+) Naturally, he would also like to see whatever Earthly curiosa might be worth telling about if and when he ever "goes home". Literally, the sky's the limit with this Bug! Oh, and please take a picture of two of each place he visits, for his scrapbook, so that he can show his people how friendly we humans are, and how nice a place Earth can be. Who knows? We might need his help some day.

Aaaargh! Just a few days after this guy was dropped into a cache in the Long Beach, CA area, that cache was muggled 😡 So it Goes... At least he got around some: over 17,000 miles all over the country, and even into Mexico 🙂 We'll bring him home for burial, and hope that he turns up somewhere down the line.

Sorry for the late log on this one. I found it in the Alien's cache... or rather next to it since it would fit in that cache on Monday, March 23th. I then brought in to log and forgot to do so, thinking that it was still in my car.

I am hoping to find a cache large enough to place it in we I go out looking tomorrow.

i was taking my son to vegas for march madness for his 21st birthday, and we stopped here at about 4 am. it was pitch black, no lights on, so i had him take the photo, and he sort of freaked out when he saw the dudes in the car! priceless.
