It was pretty cool.  I made an animation to visually explain what I saw.

No, it's not a joke.  I actually saw this, and I thought I did a pretty good job with the animation. It's the best I can do.

I saw what looked like a dull star. Noticed it moving very very slowly, and then it disappeared. Then a couple seconds later I noticed a triangle of colored lights blinking rapidly and flying upwards really fast. I'm not a pro animator, so it lookes a little cheesy.

I'm pretty sure no aircraft built by humans looks like or moves the way that thing did.

Drugs are bad. M'kay.

The US government has 9 crashed alien ships and some dead alien bodies at S-4(Papoose lake) in Lincoln County, Nevada.

Look up Bob Lazar (Top Secret UFO Conspiracy)

Oh, I thought you were talking about the background that you used for your picture.

Have you seen them in person?

There's also a yeti out there somewhere.....oh and lets not forget the Loch Ness Monster , plenty of people have 'seen it'

Oh and Bob Lazar?

"His critics have asserted that "Lazar's credibility crumbled" after "schools he was supposed to have attended had no record of him, while others in the scientific community had no memory of ever meeting him"

"In 2006 Lazar and wife Joy White were charged with violating the Federal Hazardous Substances Act for shipping restricted chemicals across state lines following a federal investigation started in 2003. [ 13 ] The charges stemmed from a 2003 raid on Lazar's business where chemical sales records were examined. [ 13 ] The maximum penalty is 270 days in prison and a $15,000 fine. [ 13 ] Lazar claimed that he mistakenly concluded that he could legally sell the chemicals after finding incorrect information on the internet."

"

In 2007 Lazar/United Nuclear were fined $7,500 for violating a law against selling chemicals and components used to make illegal fireworks. [ 15 ] Lazar "pled guilty to three criminal counts of introducing into interstate commerce and aiding and abetting the introduction into interstate commerce of banned hazardous substances." [ 16 ] Lazar also "entered into a consent decree that permanently limits the amount of future sales of fireworks-related chemicals", and United Nuclear Scientific Equipment and Supplies was placed on probation for three years. [ 16 ]

Lazar again gained attention in 2006 from news reports that he sold small amounts of Polonium , a radioactive element which was in the news because of its role in fatally poisoning former Soviet intelligence agent and whistleblower Alexander Litvinenko ."

Real credible guy right there

um....I'm sure he did see a 'UFO', ie - an 'unidentified flying object'.  Since it was at night, he saw some flashing lights.  He couldn't tell what they were... therefore, it was a UFO.

Can we say that he saw a "WTFWT"?

I'm just trying to understand the thought process here. You see some lights in the sky, come down from the high, and think, "I know, I'll post that on a golf website. Golfers are notorious UFO believers." Think I got it.

I was playing golf in the desert and a UFO landed, and these little one inch tall guys got out and came over and I asked them, "Are you really that small?" and they said "No we are just really far away."  Honestly, I thought they were caddies until I realized they were green.

Easier to tell people online than it is in real person....less embarrassing....you don't get that "WTF" look

I've told everyone in my family and 5 of my co-workers.... I'm actually quite surprised at the response I got on here. You're all jealous!

UFO doesn't necessarily mean it's an alien aircraft.  So lets assume that what I saw was actually there and I wasn't hallucinating. If it wasn't E.T., then what could it have been?

Drugs are bad. M'kay.

It could be the shrooms... Do you have any airbases near by? We have a Pratt Whitney plant down here and there are stories of some strange things happening from tests and projects. My brother-in-law works there and has seen some hi tech hovering drones that he said would look extremely suspicious in the dark. I think the "jealousy" is because this is a little off beat for a golf forum.

    • Wordle 1,013 4/6* ⬛🟦🟦⬛⬛ ⬛🟦⬛🟦🟦 🟧⬛🟧🟧🟧 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 par is good after a double bogey yesterday.
    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
