Crop circle season is over for another year. Another rash of intricately formed pictograms marks the wheatfields of the world... or does it?

Are there any in your country? Do you have a theory about their origins?
(If nothing else, they make a good conversational topicc!) Cool

Eau de Sid, it's a new line alongside Andre Agassi's new fragrance, "Balls".

Well, there's nothing like the smell of a fresh crop circle, so I've heard.

I'm off to Wiltshire to smell me one.

I thought I saw a crop circle in a small lane near the market close to my home but on closer investigation it was just 50 or so tons of discarded cabbage leaves, corn shuckings, and other recognisable and unrecognisable materials that may have once been associated with food. The smell of the aforesaid crop circle? Well, it was 4pm on an incredibly hot and particularly airless day. Use your imagination. Shocked

Theory of origin? Well, I guess the locals would be chuffed if I told them the circles were made by aliens, probably from Area 51, who were brainwashed by the Americans. Damn! There must be hundreds of millions of aliens in China! Wink

True Story: When I was teaching in a farming town in South Australia, a local farmer claimed he saw a UFO [Unknown Fucking Object] land in his wheat crop. There was certainly a circle, and he was never the same again.

In the meantime,beware of someone calling himself China Syndrome, last heard of passing himself off as a gynocologist in a southern China medical university.

Erm...that's Dr. Syndrome, thanks. There's an opening for a proctologist, AKA. That should be right up your alley, so to speak. Wink
