This is the story of what I found a few days ago when I went into my basement to look for something located close to where I store my paint cans and buckets. This is what I saw…
Now what in the hell is that I wondered and upon closer examination saw this….
Apparently a can without a cap had some leakage and morphed into an alien from outer space, or at least looks like what I always thought they might look like. You can still see the spray nozzle that was consumed to create bone and structure…
Note the oblong cranium which is a sure sign of an advanced being with superior intellect..
This head is as hard as a….head, and must have formed some time ago. Note the brain which is partially outside the skull. So far it has not chosen to communicate with me, even though I find myself sending it messages….including “please don’t hurt me.”
WHY ME! WHY ME! (should I sell it on ebay?)

I bet you could sell it on eBay! LOL
And I may! Thanks.
And just in time for Halloween!
I have it sitting on a shelf behind me, in case it decides to talk.
Neat looking, if a face of a religious icon on a pancake can sell on ebay, don’t see why this could not….lol
My ship has come in!
Hopefully it comes in peace.
Matt if I suddenly disappear we will know it either killed me or I left on the mother ship.
I dont think you should sell it at all. It was you who found it – for a reason maybe? Maybe it has something to tell you or to teach you. I speak from experience!!
Hmmm. I will keep it for a month and see if it has something to tell me. I am certainly open to it….
“The force is strong with this one.”
Don’t you think it is bizarre?
I think it came to you for a reason, because you’re a believer…
Yes!! I think it’s very bizarre!! It looks too much like the image of an alien. I would have run from the basement holding my head screaming at the top of my lungs. Can I be your agent?
You are hereby officially and publicly named as my agent. One possibility is that I bring this paint can on tour and do a ventriloquist act, with me being the dummy.
I don’t know, I just looked at your images again. This story has legs!
Please keep me informed as to what you have lined up. My initial thoughts are some speaking engagements where my little friend talks and I listen along with everyone else. Will the military seize it? Book us at Barns and Noble and I’ll throw together a quick book about lunacy. By the way, you will get 50% of the take so get busy girl.
Barnes and Noble? I’m talking Letterman. Leno.
THE VIEW…
Do I have to buy a suit?
Yes, this is just begging for ebay! LOL. What a terrific “thing”. Open to all sorts of interpretation. I see a news story covering this a proof that aliens exist and they’re trying to communicate with us. Hahahaha.
I’m not sure why it came to me. I do know that if it changes it’s expression into a smile I am going to run from my home straight to the loonie bin.
Help me Terry!
Actually if it starts to smile I’ll be the one running in front of you. Hahahaha.
It’s alive! It’s alive!
Definitely an alien being died while trying to get out of the can. That’s why one of his eyes seems to be bulging out, about to explode!
You really think he is dead?
If you leave on a mother ship, try to send us all a postcard, OK?
I will try to maintain my blog…..
Very good
Return of ET?
ET as a grown up. He used to be cuter.
Happens to the best of us?
A bitter pill. Time does fly.
Ah yes, the being from the planet Acoustica! A lovely portrait from someone who may need to get out more. xoxo
Clearly, I need to get out more
don’t you have a vacation planned to Texas? maybe need to up that departure date my friend…
Oh that will happen soon enough and will last a month at least. Really looking forward to that. My wife retires in 24 days, so other than being poor, we will have some freedom to move about.
If you are going to make money of this, Mike, you have to say that it was an intentional work of art. It took 9 months of daily little squirts to form this is the exact way to envisioned it. We promise not to tell on you if you split the profits. Thanks for the lol post.
Pat if this post made you laugh then that is good enough by me!
I’ve moved on to other blogs and I’m still laughing.
“A lovely portrait from someone who may need to get out more. xoxo”
LOL
Admittedly when the image came up and before I had scrolled down it looked like a head to me too. Pretty cool.
It is cool. Freakishly so.
I think you may need more rest….
Sounds like you’ve been stuck in the paint cabinet for a little too long, Mike…even accidental huffing kills brain cells….
Apparently you are not as excited by this find as I am Scott. When I go on tour, you will not be part of my entourage, sad to say.
You’re breaking my heart….
In the spirit of good-will, though, I’ll book the SLC Convention Center for you if you want to swing-by on your way to…wherever your fame takes you….
Someone got rich with the pet rock, why can’t I parlay my alien into something big, even if I have to appear nuts in the process. I might be in need of security and that could be where you come in, keeping both the alien and myself safe. Give it some thought, might be great fun.
Ok, Mike…I’ll recruit my older sons and we’ll be a trio of security for you…protecting you and your…alien…..
Done! Elisa is my agent and will be in touch.
Can’t wait.
ROFL, it does look like an alien with one huge eye. Does it blink, Mike?
I think it blinks when I’m not looking. I’m super pleased you got a kick out of it and didn’t tell me to get out more or get some rest.
Wow! You should market this as a toy–Grow Your Own Alien. It really does look like one of the creatures from “Mars Attacks!” http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/08/08/article-1042756-0233E93100000578-385_233x423.jpg
It would be like sea monkeys, only with paint. And aliens.
Yes, it would be cool and a chemist might be able to replicate a leaking can, but I suspect this is a one time event. But I am willing to share it with the rest of the world. For a fee
That is exactly what my wife said when she first saw it! I remember that fun movie and I agree. lol. thanks.
How eerie, Mike! You think they are like mushrooms and deer, where there’s one ….
I hope not….one is plenty!
LOL! Yes, it looks like something that could fetch big bucks on eBay. Very bizarre. From one angle, it reminds me of Homer Simpson. Or an alien version of Homer.
Well, since I already have the photos, it would be real easy to post this on ebay and I might just do this as much for comical relief as anything. What would I call it? Alien in a can? Take me to your leader.
See? This is what I love about you – your unabashed madness!
Mad? Me? Let’s go with fucking nuts.
