MEXICO CITY - Mexican scientists presented evidence
that the strange phenomenon photographed by Air Force pilots
and thought by millions to be evidence of extra terrestrial
life, was something entirely different.
The results of their findings, which were made public Friday,
cast doubt on theories that the strange lights identified
by Mexican Air Force pilots patrolling the skies for drug
runners, were indeed from a UFO or alien craft.
"We did extensive analysis of all the evidence,"
said lead Mexican scientist Juan San Ruiz. "We must conclude
that it was not any kind of advance spaceship, but instead
a giant magical piñata floating in the sky."
"Si, si, that is correct," Interior Minister Juan
Battista said. "The giant magical piñata was most
likely filled with candy or possibly gold and silver coins--
brought by the rarely seen patron saint Lucilla Maria de la
Piñata. If the Air Force pilots had not scared the
piñata away, the entire Mexican countryside would have
been littered with delicious goodies. It is a sad day for
Mexico and all of it's 12 billion sugar-deprived children."
Mexican officials said they were saddened by the misidentification,
because according to Finance Minister Francisco Gil Diaz,
"only a giant magical paint filled with candy and pesos
could save their troubled economy."
"It does gives us hope," Battista said. "Hope
that if we are patient and wait in our backyards during extended
afternoon siestas, we will once again see the giant magical
paint This time, instead of being frightened of it, we will
embrace it and beat it open with a very, very large stick."
Added Battista, "I just hope it's not filled with cocaine."
