Mystery Martian is a statue of Princess Diana
By John_O
24 January 2008
I'm surprised this hasn't hit the headlines yet!

The Daily Mail has used the latest in computer enhancement software, as utilised by the Miami Dade Crime Lab, to uncover the identity of the mystery ‘Martian’ in the picture from the Mars rover Spirit. The Mail can now exclusively reveal that the ‘Martian’ is in fact a statue of Diana Princes of Wails (sic) !
Royal correspondent Sir Nicholas Fawningly-Smugworthy has seen the enhanced picture and writes “To see the sad and beautiful features of our much missed Diana brought tears to my eyes, but it was a great comfort to know that the Martians also loved her so much that they carved this exquisite memorial to her enduring memory….”
NASA scientists when challenged with this latest revelation commented “Crazy dumbass Limeys!” before hanging up on our journalist, thus proving beyond doubt that there is a conspiracy of silence surrounding Princess Diana’s untimely demise.

Who the hell is Princess Diana? Whoever she is - is she dead?  
 
Gid - will it never end? I suppose it's good for The Mail and The Express. They need something to balance their otherwise hate filled rags. 
 
Good idea, liked the name - thought you could have expanded this and gone further, deeper, lower.

Hi Phil 
I guess I could have gone much much further with this one but then I would be venturing into dangerous territory - I might get offered a job on the Mail!!! Or worse I could get offered a PR job by the owner of a certain Knightsbridge store, I would have to leave the country. 
 
I loved the idea of taking such a piece of gross insanity, wind shaped rock on Mars looks like a figure, therefore it's a Martian, and going just that teensy bit further with it. It had to be Di because it didn't look anything like Martin Boorman. 
Cheers

Maybe she WAS a Martian herself! Charles could have been king of Mars if he had had more patience. And the whole thing was a cover up to prevent Mr. Al Fayed moving Harrods to Mars. 
 
Nice one. Got to look up that article about the Mars statue. I saw a headline, but didn't read it.
Now there's a thought...

Hi Maus 
you may have hit on something big there - didn't that Edgar Rice Burroughs chappie write about princesses on Mars? Maybe he was a bit like Nostradamus and was foretelling the future, or maybe we've all had a bit too much booze. 
Love the new conspiracy theory; who is behind it ? Walmart or maybe Waitrose trying to shut Harrods out of the Martian Market (Waitrose have a Royal Warrant - Grocers and Assassins to Her Maj.). I can see the headline now 'Waitrose Whacks Di! ' 
Oh the possibilities are endless, but we had better stop now before Phil blows a blood vessel.

So David Icke was right after all. She was no doubt in cahoots with our late reptilian Queen Mother (God Bless 'er). This will of course all come out in the present inquiry and bring a smile to the faces of the lawyers, as they "consult their notes". As Phil says, there's probably more material here.
