APNEWZ WIRES : CRAZED JOURNEY FANS ATTIBUTE COSMIC NOISE TO NEW PERRY RELEASE --LONGBEACH CALIF, SAN FRANCISCO, - JAN 12 2009 [/u][/u]
Space dudes at the 213 th meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Longbeach last week held a session to discuss rather strange and loud cosmic noises detected coming from outerspace. These sounds were detected by a balloon bourne instrument called ARCADE launched by Goddard SpaceCenter. A full description of the discovery by the space dudes is found at the space.com website
http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/090107-aas-loud-cosmic-noise.htmlWhilst the Space Dudes were clueless as to the cause of this cosmic noise, several hundered Perry Supporters claim they have an explanation-its the sound of a new Perry album being released in another galaxy.
Just last Wednesday night, San Fransisco police noted a complaint from Journey leadguitarist Neal Schon . Schon reported that the kitchen window to the Schon estate had been broken and a set of keys had been stolen. Looking out into his backyard wooden shed, Schon realised that door had been jimmied open with a crowbar, and the ESCAPE spaceship (the same one on the 1981 album cover) had been stolen.
Schon claims it was Perry who stole it. "Its simple. We had the keys disguised as keys to a shitty old Ford 1977 Pinto Station Wagon . Only Perry and I knew this. We thought who else would want a shitty old rusted out Ford Pinto, depite the fact that Pintos had them sexy looking fake wood panels on them back in those days." Schon also pointed out that the shed had been spraypainted with a slogan "Shes Mine" perhaps another clue.
It has been suggested that the vehicle was stolen to facilitate the production of a new Perry album far away from the pying eyes of EBL's (earth based loons). It is pretty clear Perry would have had to have session musicians with him on board as the ships transporter room only gets powered when the keys to an old disused Gregg Rollie organ are played. Furthermore, back up vocalists are usually employed to allow the doors on the ESCAPE pod to make a schwooshing sound (resembling the sound of the doors on the USS Enterprise).
Steve Smith, ex drummer of the band, was a little more skeptical. Look, we used to take that thing out all the time flying over 7-11's beeming up grape slurpees , crazy rock chicks from the parking lots, and boxes of Hostess cupcakes. Steve just wanted to relive the glory days abit. Steves probably got a little purple mustache and beard right now, has eaten six boxes of cupcakes, and is moaning that the girls in the 7-11 parking lot dont look as good as they used to. I just hope he's careful. Police in Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, and Nebraska are still on the lookout for the vehicle. "
