Build Your Own UFO
Are Belong To Us dept. writes "Guess where the billions of dollars in the super-secret
Air Force program are going? Build your own for $10 in parts. They're popularly called "Lifters" and they're flying (one
of many videos) without engines and can hover in
place. Admit it, it would have been cool to see a
UFO. Never mind if you didn't, because now you can
build your own (another, step-by-step
instruction, here), like lots
of people around the globe already have, for $10 in
parts. A number of patents surround the technology, some by
NASA. The best introduction
site to all of this is Jean-Louis Naudin's site. There goes your sleep - this is fascinating stuff. ;-)" Any website that uses the phrase "a simple 30KV power supply" is okay in my book.

Anyone else think the picture on the top looks like a flying pair of underwear?
Ah yes. The Buttered Cat drive. Actually works too. Got a car powered with that very drive. Well, I did, until those bastards at the oil companies crushed it into a tiny tiny cube.
Simple premise of the Buttered Cat drive is based in elementary physics. First, go and butter a slice of toast, then drop it on the floor. Note that it will, without err, land butter-side-down.
Next, obtain a cat. Fling it. Observe how it persists on landing feet-side-down.
Simple deduction would see that by attaching a buttered slice of toast to the back of a feline, would simply spin in place several feet above the ground.
Harnessing this energy is simple. All one needs is multiple cats and multiple slices of buttered toast. And string. Mustn't forget the string. Place the Buttered Cats into an enclosure, and marvel as it rises from the ground. Attach a ship around it, and voila! One flying saucer. To power this ship, tack shag carpet to the interior of the enclosure and draw the static electricity from within.
This explains the bright blue lights and humming/buzzing/PURRING that UFOs emit.
Try it yourself. Its great fun!
Teeee-quila! baby, Ten shots tonight. Let's try for twelve before I hit the floor. Heh...
Why is it when I hit ^R that ZSH calls me a cocksucker?
I'm sure the scientologists will like this...
About a year ago I built a UFO and let it fly away at about 1am. It was brightly lit and flew eastward, and it went way out of sight. I'd give exact details, and link to the photos, since I'm sure many people would LOVE to know the details. I heard some neighborhood children in the distance (I didn't know they were there prior to lift off) have a total fit after they noticed it. So the effect was that I spent about an hour rolling around in my yard laughing so hard I was unable to breathe.
Anyway, I'm a little concerned that releasing something that size that flies away on it's own and goes who-knows-where might be breaking some law somewhere. It certainly wasn't going to stay airborn forever and I know if it had come down and damaged someone's property (or unlikely, but possibly injured someone)I would be held liable if I could be linked to it (also unlikely...but I'm not taking any chances).
Anyway, the point is -- Making UFOs that fly away and freak people out isn't new. It's probably the cause of most UFO reports. It's also a whole lot of fun.

I just don't see any use in owning a ufo unless i can kidnap farmers in iowa and probe their bodily orficies like the real aliens.
yes i run a goth/punk/emo porn site.
Hey, this one has a four nut payload. Increase to include four bolts and a crescent wrench and I can see some clear military applications.
Any real scientist or expert in physics knows anti gravity is possible, they also know our government most likely have anti gravity,
The problem is, its expensive, and requires ALOT of energy.
Theres no way I'm going to believe some little toy anyone can make, can defy gravity, all that is, is a trick.

You should do more research on up to date science.
The theory of everything, super string theory, or Mtheory, but these theories talk about other dimensions and we cant prove they exsist, the only evidence we have, is the 5th force i spoke of.

The story revolves around two simultaneous scientific events located in the mountains of Virginia. One is a Plasma fusion experiment and the other a SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) experiment. When SETI's antennas pass through the M-33 Galaxy in the Triangulum constellation, a huge powerful signal engulfs the SETI equipment and backs up through the Kerr Dam generators into the Plasma fusion experiment, enlarging the Plasma core and creating a rift in space. In so doing it exposes the Fifth Force. There are four major forces that govern everything in the Universe. They are gravity, electro-magnetism, the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force. The fifth and undiscovered force is the Fifth Force. The force that binds the very fabric of the Universe together, empty space."

Now you don't have to lose weight anymore. You can relish in your body! Get your very own Lifter to carry those few extra pounds for you. YES! A LIFTER! A guaranteed NASA patented technology used for thousands of years by the UFOs frequenting this country (National Enquirer screamsheets shown onscreen).
This phenomenal technology not only uses electrogravitics and hoveronics, but also Muscleline(Tm) technology to lift the flab from your stomach to your the heigh of your chest, to make you look like this (anonymous bodybuilder pic) or even this (Arnold Swachc...negger lookalike pic)!
But don't take just my word for it. Listen to this testimony from a world renowned scientist: "Hi, I'm doctor Hickey from University of Buttmunch, Montana. I have been studying and using this technology for years. It works on principles hidden from us by US government ever since the Roswell crash. Just a few lifters placed around your body will make your steps lighter and make your physique look superb!".
Buy now, and not only do you get this perfectly safe 4 lifter set, which is valued at 499$ for 19,99$. But you will also receive this great How To Treat Electrical Burns manual (value 99,99$) as well as 10$ discount coupon for a new pacemaker.
