Stand in the somewhere       in the middle and twirl the brick at the end of the rope over       your head and slowly work your way down. Invest an hour or so of       work, choose a light brick or stone to lighten your burden.       Better yet, start with a heavy one to hack and slash the first       layers and then degrade to a lighter one for finer touches.       Remember, only spin the weight in *one* direction. Then go to a       hill and see if you did a good job. Work at it and improve your       technique. In time, try different stone weights and line types       to increase your effective radius of crop destruction. Heck, in       no time you can do it in the dead of night... if anyone comes upon       the scene investigating the unearthly "wooshing" sounds, simply       let go of the line and the evidence immediately plummets out of       sight through the wheat. "Gosh, look here at this circle I just       found... and did you see that UFO that was here a minute ago?"              Next, setup a stand selling camera film, meteors, UFO books, and       beer... then telephone the National Enquirer. Its sure to top any       proceeds from last year's roadside produce stand!              * * * * * *       Maybe, its significant that the reported crop circles started off       small and slowly got larger? Maybe it took some experimentation       or muscle building to get the really photogenic results?              Heck, I'll make snow-angels if y'all want to get all excited over       them and photograph and speculate about them... but the beers       gonna cost you! 8-)                     If you like this one, maybe I'll explain the South American "Landing Fields"       and animal markings... naaawwww, that's worth a good article. Maybe even a       computer simulation...                        **********************************************        * THE U.F.O.
