chinese ghost story

HOW?

The woman kept going, and going, and the alley got tighter, and tighter, and still she kept going, forcing her way forward, squeezing herself forward, inch by inch, the walls scrapping her arms, pinning her limbs together, yet still she pushed forward.

That’s the kind of determination that either liberates countries from tyrants or gets you killed crossing against a red light.

The ghost part?

Sigh.

That’s all. Just sigh.

If there wasn’t video I would not believe a second of this story.

Never mind the question is Imponderable, the whole story is Imponderable.

Former New York Knicks player Baron Davis was abducted by aliens a few weeks ago. I’ll let him tell it in his own words.

“I was, um, on my way from Vegas here to L.A., I’m a little tired and s— and I see this light and I think it’s a big-a– truck. Then next thing you know, dude, like, I was in this f—— steel thing.”

It didn’t end there. In many abduction stories, there is a period of blackout and often the victim’s next memory would be heading home some hours later. Not so Davis. He recalls meeting “these f—— crazy-looking people” who were “half-human, half, like, f—–, ugly motherf——.”

In fact, Baron has some clear recollections of that evening. “Dude, they were poking me on my nose and s—. They were poking me on my nose and they were, like, looking me in my eyes. They had my hands like, tied up and the next thing you know, I was f—— in Montebello, dude, burning rubber on the way back to L.A. It was like four o’clock in the morning.”

Davis later recanted the story, claiming it was all a joke.

Judging from his outfit, I tend to believe it.
