Regarding "1997 UFO Sightings" - Latest First

I KNOW I SAW A UFO! UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL i Was playing basketball WITH MY NEIGHBOR (A BOY). AGE 9 OR 10 THE BALL WENT ACROSS THE STREET. WE RAN AFTER THE BALL AND REACHED DOWN TO GRAB IT AND WHEN WE STOOD UP THIS THING WAS FLOATING OVER US MY FRIEND TOOK OFF RUNNING AND LEFT ME ALONE I WAS SO SCARED IT WAS LIKE A MAGNET ON ME WHEN I MOVED IT MOVED. SOON AS I STARTED TO CRY IT TOOK OFF. WE RAN IN THE HOUSE AND NEVER TALKED ABOUT IT AGAIN. THIS HAPPEND TO ME AROUND 1973-1975 IN BLOOMINGTON, CA. I FEEL LIKE (THEY, THEM, IT) ARE STILL TRYING TO MAKE A CONNECTION WITH ME. I HAVE WAKEN UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TOTALLY NOT BEING ABLE TO MOVE OR SPEAK. IT'S NOT A DREAM. MIMI JENKINS, LOS ANGELES, CA. -- MIMI JENKINS 7/20/98 (#7)

California Lights Last night (7/14/98) I was sitting in my back yard around 10PM. I kept seeing these lights moving through the sky (about one per minute). I know these weren't airplanes because there was no beacon. They lookes more like stars moving through the sky. Can someone offer an explanation for this? -- J (jevans@mail.vendoco.com ) 7/15/98 (#6)

What did I see ? My family and myself had seen some oblong lights , only slanted , while on vacation in the Pocono Mts. Pa. The date was 8/8/97 Time:8:15 PM The sky was overcast and the lights were suspended under some clouds. They apeard to just be sitting still when one of the lights rose up into the cloud and then came back down . Did anybody else see this? -- Rich (RB1415@msn.com ) 8/10/97 (#5)

Just In Case...... I was thinking that it would be a good idea for UFO watchers and enthusiasts to carry around a good camera and some film in their glove compartments of something. Just in case the unexplainable happens. -- Jason Burgess (jasonburgess@hotmail.com ) 4/28/97 (#4)
