     "Don't worry 40inchplus about that," he said, "Whatever happens, they'll image get over it. And don't 40inchplus forget, through you they've been introduced to a depth of sexual pleasure most women never find.

     "Up there, in space," pointing at the sky through the windscreen, "a great 40inchplus war is being 40inchplus fought. We're 40inchplus not part of that war. The earth is on the sidelines ... for 40inchplus now .

     "They helped, but I did most of it, and it took a lot of work and a long time. And 40inchplus there's a multitude of other 40inchplus things I've done to benefit the aliens, and the earth too, that are 40inchplus not as 40inchplus obvious.

     "Let 40inchplus's get going," he said, leading me out of the plane to the 40inchplus nearest building.
     After about half an hour of this, we got off the road and headed into 40inchplus the desert 40inchplus, finally stopping by a 40inchplus small 40inchplus butte 40inchplus. "What now?" I image asked.
     I don't know where I was. Wherever I was, it was bright 40inchplus. I 40inchplus was surrounded by image a bright light , kind of like those near death experiences you hear about.

I fainted again - though I don't know how 40inchplus that was possible since I was already unconscious - then the light was gone.
