22. I hadn't thought of that.
If so, he undoubtedly had an "I f***ed up" moment afterwards.

2. Notice the composition, the contrast between light and dark...

...it does rather resemble some kind of modern art project gone awry, doesn't it?

The driver must make financial restitution for this stunt.

the aliens have moved to a more complex message and urgent communication.

Seriously, that farmer deserves compensation. What a mess.

Wheat Pictogram in Madisonville, Tennessee. Click for report.

People just cannot hoax the expulsion cavities and they cannot
elongate the growth nodes..." - Jeffrey Wilson, ICCRA

12. There goes most of that farmer's crop for the year.
I wonder if he can sue.

What is it with people (usually guys) trying to outrun the cops? They have to know that eventually they'll run out of gas, or crash. I don't get it.

18. Dad told me "you can outrun a chevy, you can out run a ford, but you
can't outrun a Motorola". Dad knew that from experience.

13. Wow-- demolition derby in a wheat field.
"Four police cars were destroyed before the 35-year-old crashed into a ditch and was arrested, near the village of Dussen in the south of the Netherlands."

20. It's what we call "wheat"
If it was our "corn" it would be called "maize". Just to clarify for anyone who doesn't know. I bet if it was actually a cornfield the stalks would have built up in his undercarriage and stopped him before he did this much damage.

I clicked on this thinking it would be a picture of Bush with the corn cob that keeps going around...

Doubt they'll ever find their way back to Zetaphon. Here's a warning to all our extraterrestrial vistors: Bad drugs are a real bummer.
