Does it require a probing background check?

Nothing to look into? Of course not, FAA. Strange lights in the sky witnessed by air traffic controllers should absolutely be dismissed out of hand.

I for one welcome our new Martian overlords.

Didn't say that, AA.

I just can't imagine the kooks those reporters are having to deal with now. They do straight reporting on the story and suddenly they're getting e-mails claiming the lights are actually ships from a race of lizard people living in the hollow core of the Earth.

Good club, but they don't have enough pitching to contend.

Sorry, it wasn't directed at you, Inky, but this guy...

Ian Gregor, a spokesman for the Federal Aviation Administration said that though air traffic controllers at Sky Harbor Airport witnessed the lights, they do not know the cause. Nothing appeared on radar and Gregor said the FAA will not be investigating.

“There's nothing to look into,” Gregor said.

Not directed at you, Alley. Just the quote is a pet peeve of mine.

Arizona is becoming known for this sort of thing.

Update: very likely a guy tying flares to balloons.

This gives me an idea ... this area would lose it.

 

[Flying Headbutt]

That's awesome. Good for the neighbor.

 

[Bubbler]

Did anyone consider the possibility that the neighbor is an ALIEN?!?

 

[Italian_Stallion]

If it's a prank, someone went to great lengths.

...or heights.

Didn't something happen in Florida as well?

I guess the crop circle people got bored.

That this post went unsnarked upon means the earthlings here are full of Fail.

We fooled them again!
