A strange object from outer space hurtled into a reservoir in
Guyra, Australia, and left a 40-centimeter-diameter tunnel in its
wake, prompting scores of superstitious Aussie girly men to
run around screaming about "little green men from Mars."
The object, which has since been determined to be a golfball-sized meteorite,
left a 15-meter long rut in the ground leading up to the reservoir. Police
divers called in from nearby Sydney to investigate the alien probe reported that
the mysterious object, which prompted mass hysteria and a run on local bottled
water supplies, was indeed a small meteorite which was "embedded about four
metres into soft granite and cannot be removed."
Guyra is apparently renowned for nervous people who fear stupid things. The
infamous Guyra Ghost supposedly terrorized a local family in the 1920s with
"white stones and voices from the ceiling." Whatever that means.
