where's Mulder when we need him?

The Paradigm Clock, set into motion by the Paradigm Research Group (PRG) to track the proximity to a formal announcement by the U.S. government confirming an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race, has been reset to 11:59:45 - 15 seconds to midnight.

Such an announcement is formally referred to as "disclosure" and supposedly would mark the end of a 59-year truth embargo imposed by federal authorities. Midnight on the Paradigm Clock is disclosure.

According to PRG Executive Director Stephen Bassett, "Due to extraordinary circumstances primarily pertaining but not limited to the United States, a window of opportunity has opened for a disclosure event to take place. This window should last through the November election and may remain open or possibly close depending upon the outcome of the election."

Bassett didn't mention what the "extraordinary circumstances" were; however, if you're as suspicious of your neighbor as this columnist, you might keep your distance until such time as Uncle Sam comes clean.
The previous setting for the Paradigm Clock was 11:58:45, on March 8, 2004.

OK, so as much as I'd like to believe this, anybody else find this Paradigm Clock utterly ridiculous? I mean, I'm feeling very close to losing 30 pounds. I'd like to lose 30 pounds. I've lost some weight, but put it back on. And yet, I feel this window of opportunity due to extraordinary circumstances can last for several months, say, from Vicky's graduation to her enrollment at Tech. Yeah. Or, maybe not.
