The Second Glass of Wine
I'm on my second glass of wine hence the title.
The question is what you, the reader will find interesting? I'll tell you more of the things that I find interesting.
I've thought a lot about flying saucers. One of the reasons I find them interesting is that one of the things that crashed at Roswell, New Mexico also went down on my grandfather's ranch in New Mexico. I didn't find out about that until many years later. You'd have to have known my grandfather and my father to appreciate how it would be unknown. My grandfather's ranch covered 30,000 acres in New Mexico. I used to ride out on it with him and we'd have to spend the night in a cabin far back in the mountains.
Anyhow, many years later, my father told me that my grandfather had found something that had crashed far back on his ranch. He reported it to the authorities. Government agents came to the ranch, went back to the site, and collected the remains and took them away. They told my grandfather that what he had found was a weather balloon, and he should never talk about it with anyone. The only person he told about it was his son, my father. My father told me that my grandfather said he didn't know what it was that he found, but it was definitely not a weather balloon.
So that got me interested in flying saucers. I was also interested in theoretical physics. Physicists were theorizing the possibility of time travel. That led me to wonder if flying saucers could be people from the future rather than people from other planets. After further thought, I wondered if the flying saucers could be more like probes from the future without any people aboard. That led me to wonder what the people of the future would be interested in.
If I were in the future, I think I'd want to take a good look at the Kennedy assassination. I imagine you could put a flying saucer high enough that it could see what was happening without being visible from the ground.
Having said all this about flying saucers, I have to add that I don't believe in flying saucers. I don't rule out the possibility of them, but I haven't seen enough hard evidence in them to be convinced that they exist.
My grandfather's ranch was not too far from Area 51 where exotic weapons are tested. He could have stumbled on the remains of something top secret but still made by our government.
None of this rules out the possibility of time travel. Einstein himself said that his theory suggested that it was possible although he found it hard to believe. M Theory still allows that it is possible.
So, here's the thing. If there are people from the future here now, why don't we know about it?
You could construct a theory that some people do know about it. The future might have ended in a disaster that killed off most of the human race. They might have sent people back to warn the governments how to avoid the mistakes of the past. If that were the case, the governments might keep it secret.
On the other hand, if people managed to come back on their own somehow, they might use their knowledge of the future to their advantage.
If that were the case, you might look to the most successful people in the world to find the people of the future. The people who managed to make quantum leaps in technology and make money off it. Bill Gates comes to mind.
One of the other things I've always found interesting is the Kennedy assassination. Personally, I've never been able to accept it that Oswald killed Kennedy on his own. I could ramble about why I think more than one person was involved, but I'll focus on the one point that I decided on. If it was a conspiracy and if elements of the American government were involved, it seems to me that the person who arranged for Kennedy to drive that particular route at that particular time has to have been a key figure in the conspiracy. To put it another way, whoever in the government decided that Kennedy would be in that spot at that time would be the beginning of, not a paper trail, but a decision trail that would lead to the person or people responsible for Kennedy's death.
