There has been much publicity over the episodic series of the
little blue men and their daily frolic. But do they exist? A recent
sighting has turned the tables over the seemingly victorious
skeptics and given the believers a foothold over their
argument.
" It's amazing, simply amazing," says Mr. McCoy, a
classroom teacher who personally photographed the sighting,
consisting of not one, but an entire family of smurfs at what
appears to be a ritual gathering. " I've heard of intelligent
species from outer space but Earth? Probably never!"
The one foot taller natives of the mythic Smurfland were seen in
McCoy's home shortly after a Christmas party he had thrown. They
had been discreetly feasting upon the Christmas goodies, sharing
the festive spirit with the unsuspecting humans.
" Me saw 'em 'n screamed," says Mrs. Malloy, a bartop
dancer. " Me was washing up the dishes in the
kitchen, see? Then this strange blue 'un comes dashin' across
me toes, snatches a piece o' fruitcake 'n
disappears fore' I can cry ' SAINT IVES!' "
Skeptics however, have remained...skeptic. Scientist George
Brown analyzed the photograph and believes it to be what
he calls a " deceptive paint job".
"It's faked. I swear it upon my wife," he claims. " The
shadows aren't even constant in the first place, and the scale
size is too large."
Meanwhile, longtime fans of the Smurfs have begun to
rejoice. Samantha Gretchin, Chief Engineer of the
MA Society is one such fan. She has celebrated
mankind's step forward in the field of discovery by painting
her sons blue and forcing them to school dressed in nothing but
white pants and a hood.
" They aren't hoods, they're 'oods, boy," she snaps at the
author as he attempts to communicate to her. " It's nothing
like child abuse neither, they're lucky to have the pants
really."
But what do you readers think? We've bought the
original photograph, so see for yourselves, and believe!
