Man has spent years looking for Aliens .
He has searched high and low and spent millions on outer space exploration not knowing that alien life exits on this very planet - in every country - every city, many villages and hamlets too.
Let me come to the point - S O C K S !!!!!!!!!!!!
You don't have to look for the aliens as they are in our homes in the form of socks . Cunning isn't it ?
Who would have ever thought , even in their wildest imagination, that our socks had a life of their own .An alien life.
Crazy thought indeed but hot summers make you think .
However all it needs is a little reflection/ introspection and EUREKA !! You have it there in front of you .
Ask any man - anywhere in the world ,and he will confirm your worst fear ....................
Buy any number of pairs of socks and gradually they will vanish - ONE AT A TIME
Obviously they study your feet- trace your life pattern - learn about your do's and don'ts- see where you go - where you study- where you sleep - where you live - who you meet- where you work - and once they have their data complete they vanish. Kind of creepy ?
See- they come in pairs - they work in pairs - silently - unobtrusively- peacefully - gaining your confidence , and then presto- one fine day - one is gone !
You can swear you washed two - the pair- but one just takes off without so much as a by your leave.
You can search for all your worth - you won't find it . Not in the cupboard , not in the draw , no signs in the washing machine , not in the sink by any chance , not on the clothes line - not down on the ground !!
So where in the world did it go .
Your dismayed and you wonder .
When you take stock of the situation, reality dawns - THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AS WELL - many times in fact .
You have been buying socks by the dozen ..............................and something is amiss - where have they gone .
For some time thereafter you tie up all the singletons together hoping that the pair will get fed up of roaming about without its partner and suddenly turn up out of the blue - wishful thinking .
THAT NEVER HAPPENS .
He has obviously gone back to report on your activities ...............your dossier is being updated .
So in disgust you throw out the other ..............
This would not have been the case if both had vamoosed together but that never happens- they want to let you feel helpless - they want to leave you thinking - THAT IS THE POINT .
This in my theory - believe it if you want - no one is forcing you but let me tell you this - the next time you go to put on a pair of socks and only find one YOU WILL REMEMBER ME .
( Your thinking already )
Happens you know !
Cheers .
Some information
The word 'socks' comes form the Latin word 'soccus'. The soccus was a kind of loose fitting shoe worn by Roman comic actors that could be slipped off easily. When Romans wore 'soccus' with sandals, they removed their sandals when indoors, but kept their soccus on.
The ancient Egyptians were the first to sue crude woven socks to protect the feet. Archaeologists have found knitted and woven socks that date back to the fourth century in Egyptian Copt tombs, and interestingly, some of these show signs of having been carefully darned at the heel and toe. The great warrior from Central Europe, Attila the Hun wound brightly coloured stripes of cloth around his legs to protect them in the 4th century, and so did 8th century barbarian warriors. In 1589, the Reverend William Lee of Nottinghamshire, England invented a machine that could knit socks out of cotton, wool and silk. William took his invention to the curt of Queen Elizabeth I to try and get a patent for it but the Queen refused to grant one, as she was afraid that the machine would put thousands of women who hand knitted for a living out, of work.
