SAN LUIS, Colo. — A creepy string of calf mutilations in southern Colorado has a rancher and sheriff's officials mystified. Four calves were found dead in a pasture just north of the New Mexico state line in recent weeks. The dead calves had their skins peeled back and organs cleared from the rib cage. One calf had its tongue removed. But rancher Manuel Sanchez has found no signs of human attackers, such as footprints or ATV tracks. And there are no signs of an animal attack by a coyote or mountain lion. Usually predators leave pools of blood or drag marks from carrying away the livestock. Two officers from the Costilla County Sheriff's Office have investigated the mutilations but say they don't know what's killing the calves. "There's nothing really to go by," said Sanchez, who's ranched for nearly 50 years. "I can't figure it out." A spokesman for the sheriff's office told The Pueblo Chieftain that investigators doubt a person butchered the calves because there is no blood at the scene. "I've butchered a cow before and I know what kind of a mess it leaves," Sgt. James Chavez said. Some in the area believe the mutilations are the work of aliens. An area UFO chaser, Chuck Zukowski of Colorado Springs, has been to the Costilla County pasture to investigate. He told the paper there have been other unexplained calf mutilations in the area, including three in March. One of the other calves, found dead on a ranch near Trinidad, had its ears removed, Zukowski said. Sanchez said he has sold off his 32 remaining calves out of fear more would be mutilated. He hasn't decided how he'll manage the remaining 40 animals in his herd. "It's a big loss for a small rancher," he said.
Well, there you have it. Holy Cow, where is Mulder and Scully when you need them? Well Mulder (David Duchovny) is now a stud-bucket that has beautiful women falling all over him in Showtime’s Californication and Scully (Gillian Anderson) has just finished her latest movie, Boogie Woogie. Not likely that they could rev-up the old X-files and find out what’s really going on in San Luis Colorado. That being the case, you are left with Banginthedrum’s intrepid investigator, and all-around inquisitive fellow, uh, that would be me, to get to the bottom of this messy business. Good luck with that. Nevertheless, this latest event of Animal Mutilations and the possibility of, Oh no Mr. bill, Aliens fricasseeing helpless pasture animals and taking only the choice organs is a disturbing event. It also begs the question, “Why are the Cosmos ruffians coming all the way to Earth just to carve up some US Grade Choice Black Angus on the hoof?” Perhaps they can’t get a good prime cut on their home planet, “Gillydad Prime”, and so they have to motor light-years just to get to the way-out-of-the-way Earth in order to finally get some decent fixin’s for a really good meal. Of course, perhaps they (the Aliens) are not Cosmos Carnivores looking for a special evening-out meal but they came to the third rock from the Sun because they are Scientists engaged in research about how life on this planet is progressing. Well, if that would be the case, why are they checking out dumb animals, why don’t they go to the top of the heap and carve up Humans to really find our how we are doing, evolution wise, that is? If that is what the Aliens are doing, I would suggest they fly into Washington D.C. in order to pick off some really smart and advanced Humans, because that’s where all the really smart Humans live nowadays, and believe me, we Earth people wouldn’t miss them all that much. But I digress. There is a serious side to this, and I want to address it with you. By now you have read my many pieces railing against Science, and about how Science has become Politicized, and in general, how the Scientists have developed an arrogant attitude towards us dumb-butt ordinary citizens. Let me give you a case in point.
Do you recognize the above diagram? The above diagram is a plaque that was attached to Pioneer 10 &11. Pioneer 10 & 11 are Satellites that are now on their way to parts unknown in the Cosmos. The plaques were put on the Satellites in the event that extraterrestrial life might find them at some point in time and somewhere in the Cosmos. The plaques contain basic information about who we are, where we live, and other basic information. The plaques are an attempt to communicate with unknown life in the event life exists out there and comes in contact with our voyaging craft. When I learned that scientists had placed these plaques on our Satellites, and then shot them into the Cosmos, I was outraged. Think about it. If life here on Earth is just one of many that occupy the Universe, then, more likely than not, all of the other life developed under the same Universal rules as we did, and with the same resulting characterizes and traits as us Earthlings. In case you missed it, while watching the Colts beat the crap out of everyone, its dog eat dog here on good old terra firma. I, and neither did you, make it that way, it’s the way it is. Life consumes (eats) life in order to conserve that planet’s resources and this is the only way that life can survive to advance. It is the height of arrogance that Scientists would make a decision on their own that could have devastating consequences for all life on Earth by assuming that advanced extraterrestrial life would always be benign. What I am saying here is that we don’t know if other life is out there, only that if other life exists, chances are excellent that they developed just like us and we might represent some mighty tasty food that could ensure their survival. After all, the advanced life could rationalize we Humans are not all that advanced, and so they would have no ethical problems associated with using us as food or as beasts of burden. This is not meant to humorous. We have no ethical problems eating cattle or using horses as beast of burden because they are an inferior life that is not really all that advanced and we eat to them and use them in order to survive and advance. An extraterrestrial life, much more advanced than us, would not have an ethical problem having us for lunch either, i.e., big fish eat little fish, or using us as smart beasts to do their bidding. I am outraged that arrogant and sophomoric Scientists could put all life on Earth in such jeopardy without having knowledge of what is really out there in the cosmos, life wise that is. Get the serious picture?
