Location: Utah		A strange metal object came loose inside my daughter's Adamas tonight. Ideas? Approx 2" long with a tab on one end. I will attempt a pic upload from my phone.

Location: Route 66, just east of the Cadillac Ranch		A piece just like that was found at the Roswell site. Initially authorities said it was part of an alien spacecraft, but later they recanted and said it fell out of a guitar.

She says the can is loose but everything still works. It came loose during a band rehearsal. She texted me the picture with great worry that her beloved Ute might have a serious problem. Gotta love technology - a text message with picture to my phone while I'm away on a trip, so I post to a forum where a nearly instant response solves the mystery!

"great minds and all that" If you have ever been through downtown Roswell... Alien = Great Mind isn't what you leave town with.

Kookville.

This is actually a room in one of the "Alien Museum"s in Roswell.

Location: Utah		With the wonders of Skype I talked her through opening the hatch and reinstalling the wing. Somewhere in the conversation she tricked me into giving her Al's phone number and my credit card number for some doodads she needs. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
