It was in the winter of 1978 and at that time I worked 2nd shift for a company in New Milford, Connecticut. I lived in Waterbury, so each night I had about a 45 minute to 1 hour ride home.

I don't remember the exact date, but it was either February or March. I do remember it was a very clear, very cold, and beautiful night. There was a full moon.

It was around midnight, and I was travelling east on I-84, one of the busiest highways in our state. But this night there was very little traffic. I came over a large hill about 5 miles outside of Waterbury. After you come over this hill there is a long straightaway, maybe a mile, then the highway curves sharply to the left (north).

Anyway, as I am coming down this long straightaway, I look over to my left. Just above the trees, I would say no more than 50 feet above them, I saw this large object. It was a very simple object, it looked like a long metallic tube. It was shaped just like an Oscar Mayer hot-dog. I know that sounds silly, but that was it's shape. It was long and narrow, it was not shaped like a balloon or blimp (which I have seen on several occasions). I would estimate it was maybe 100 feet long, and maybe 15 feet tall, with rounded ends on each end.

I could see this object clear as a bell, as the sky was very bright that night from the full moon. The object actually looked dark against the sky, that is how bright the sky was that night. I cannot tell you the color of this object, but I thought it was a dark greyish color.

I quickly rolled down my window to get a better look and to see if I could hear this aircraft. All I could hear was the wind as I was going probably 65-70 MPH. I looked at the object as best I could while still looking at the road. This object had no wings or stabilizers whatsoever, it had no undercarriage as blimps do.

This aircraft did have three portholes on it's underside. They were perfectly round, just like the portholes on a ship, and evenly spaced apart. And a blue light was shining out of each porthole. The portholes looked like windows to me, and I could actually see INSIDE this ship. But all I saw was blue light inside.

Now, as I am driving down this long straightaway, this aircraft is travelling parallel with me in the same direction, although it is out-pacing me slightly. So, I estimate it was going around 80-90 MPH. It is just on the other side of this four lane highway, probably 200 feet distant at most. I wouldn't say I could have thrown a rock and hit it, but if I had a BB gun I could have hit it easily, that is how close this object is to me.

As this object got ahead of me, I saw that it also had a round porthole on it's end. This porthole was different though, it was shining green light. Again, I could literally see inside this craft, but all I saw was green light. It was as if this object was hollow inside.

As the object got to the bottom of the hill it did something that amazed me. It turned and followed the left turn in the highway. It was amazing, because I realized this craft was using the highway to navigate by! As I got to the bottom of the hill and made the left turn myself, I could still see this object, but now all I could see was the rear green porthole. It was very low now, and I was not in nearly as good a position to observe it. We were approaching the outskirts of Waterbury, and now the highway had many streetlights on each side, and I lost the object in the glare of the lights.

So, that was it. When I arrived home a few minutes later I told my wife what I had seen, and she believed me. She thought I should call the Police, but I didn't see the sense, they would just think I was crazy, and besides, the object was gone. So, I didn't call.

I do not believe this object was a military craft for several reasons. First, it was flying too low. The military does not fly aircraft, even experimental aircraft at tree-top level in the middle of the night in very hilly terrain. I am sure it was not a balloon or blimp as it was not shaped like a balloon, plus it was way too fast. The world speed record for a blimp is around 90 MPH I believe, at altitude. It also made no noise that I could hear, if you've ever heard a blimp they make a real racket that you can hear for miles. And again, balloons do not fly at tree-top level at midnight.

Plus, I can't say I know it all, but I grew up around military bases all my life, as my father was an aircraft technician for the military. I have seen some pretty amazing aircraft, including captured German buzz-bombs that the Air Force used to fly as drones when we lived at Eglin AFB. I was very into planes as a boy, I used to build models of all the WWI, WWII, and modern aircraft. This doesn't make me an expert, but I was pretty good at identifying aircraft. This object was unlike anything I have ever seen before or since.

But I did not look for this object, it was just right there where I could see it. And you know, I got the strong impression that it was making this display just for me. I don't remember seeing any other vehicles on the road when I made this sighting. And I really don't enjoy seeing these things. I will say it is fascinating, but afterwards I do not feel well. I have never for one second thought these objects are from another planet, I know they are spiritual, and that they are evil. I do not know why they even attempt to fool me, I trust in Jesus.

'If you have even a grain of doubt that you should be out looking for UFOs, then don't do it.'

Winman- I was referring to another brother on this board who made plans to go looking for UFOs. If a believer will study the issue they will see that UFOs/aliens are deceiving spirits. I don't know why you have seen them and I haven't. Major sightings tend to have multiple witnesses of the same event; it's not a vision, it's real. UFO activity seems to pick up during important events in history, too. If I ever see one I will be commanding it to depart in Jesus's name!!! If anyone has a spare 6 hours on their hands the link to the videos/audios on post#7 are very enlightening on this topic.

Winman, you are being called out on the Funny Furball Forums.

Apparently, we have to question you and cross examine your witness here, even though, like many other witnesses to UFO's (by definition, UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS), have no reason to lie.

But I guess you must not have seen what you saw because everybody knows UFO's don't exist.

Yeah, I figured it would get out over there. You know, they have regular spies here, you can see their names at the bottom of the forums, some have been members for months, and have never posted even once.

Hey, I would be a liar if I said I did not see these objects. And I have several more I could tell, though not quite as interesting as the one I posted a few months ago and today.

You tell me, do I come across as a nut-case? Or maybe they think I like to spin yarns? Maybe I missed my calling and should be writing fiction and making millions.

No, it is easy to write these accounts in detail because they really happened to me. I have only seen these objects, I have never seen an occupant or had missing time or any of that stuff. And I do not look for these events. Actually, they are very disturbing really. I often have periods of depression afterward. They are extremely peculiar things to see, very wierd.

Let 'em laugh. I think they come here because we are far more interesting, and also far more spiritual than they are. They are a bunch of doubting-Thomases. They like to puff each other up with their pseudo "scholarship". Other than criticize real believers, they have very little to offer.

So, let 'em laugh, I stand by my story. Maybe I will even tell another.

[Winman]

Oh, and if anyone wants to cross-examine me, I will be glad to answer any questions you have. Make the boys at the Funny Farm Forum happy.

[Winman]

Wow, I just went over to FFF and yes they are attacking me. No big deal.

I will say this, I signed up over there several weeks ago to answer one of FreeSundaySchoolLessons questions to me. I do not believe I would enjoy the company of these doubters, but I was willing to answer his question.

Well, no one has ever sent me authorization to post!

I can log in, and it shows me logged in, but when I try to post I get a message saying this:

winman, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Just tried it now, that is how I copied and pasted the message I get.

So, if you fix this, maybe I will come over and let you guys put me under the hot lights. But don't get the idea I will be a regular, the few times I've gone over and read the way you MVs talk about Bible believers, I really have no desire to argue with you doubters. Most of you are very immature and juvenile.

I like it just fine here with people who believe God's Word as I do. I came here for that very reason, I used to belong to another forum where there were many who attacked the Bible (Yes, the BIBLE, there is only one). I left there to get away from folks like you.

[Brother Tim]

Winman, Barry (FSSL) has his own little forum here. Perhaps you can get permission to log on there and go directly to him. Posting at FFF will cause you a lot of extra attacks.

[Winman]

So, you want me to skip over all the devils and go face to face with Beelzebub himself?

His head is swollen enough already with pride and self-satisfaction. It is greater torture to him NOT to come to his forum.

Burn baby burn!

Well I have never seen one myself, I have seen some things at night that caught my eye, but they always turned out to be planes. But I'll tell you this; since U.F.O. simply means Unidentified Flying Object, and since we now have hundreds if not thousands of commercial pilots, military personnel and law enforcement officers who are coming forward about the amazing things they have seen, I think anyone who doesn't believe UFO's exist would just about have to be mentally insane.

Luke, those scoffers on FFF have gone so far into solipsism I'm sure the majority could not prove their own existence.

Okay here is a simple question for all of you; have any of you seen one of these things since you were saved and grounded in God's Word?
