Διάβασα προ ολίγου στην ιστοσελίδα usa-today την συνέντευξη του Deron Williams, διάσημου Guard των Ν.Υ. ΝETS. Ο Deron Williams αναφέρει ότι κατά την διάρκεια του τυφώνα Sandy είδε κάτι ασυνήθιστο... ένα αντικείμενο με μια πράσινη λάμψη να αναβοσβήνει στον ουρανό, μοναδική πηγή ενέργειας μια και η πόλη είχε βυθιστεί στο σκοτάδι...Διαβάστε την συνέντευξη χωρίς μετάφραση παρακάτω.

Sometimes at night, when I'm driving on the 105 Freeway, I look up into the sky and think Los Angeles is being invaded by UFOs. But then I remind myself that the long line of flashing lights extending out in the distance, those are just planes on their descent into LAX. No need to worry about Battle: Los Angeles becoming a reality.
Anyway, that's my UFO-related story.
By comparison, Brooklyn Nets guard Deron Williams' story is much cooler. The man claims to have seen a UFO during superstorm Sandy, for crying out loud (can't make this up). Here's the excerpt from an excellent interview with GQ Magazine in which Williams explains his Sandy experience:
GQ: Where were you during the hurricane? What was your Sandy experience like?
We live in downtown Manhattan, so like everybody else downtown, we lost power around 8 p.m. on Monday, and didn't get it back until the following Saturday. We also had a whole bunch of family in town for the Nets-Knicks game, so we had about thirteen people living with us under our roof. There was nowhere we could all really go because there was no availability in any of the hotels. We had no cell reception, no power, really nothing. It was starting to get really cold. I didn't even know about all the damage that'd been done until I got the power back and started catching up on everything. We had no Twitter or anything, so I didn't know the extent of what was going on in Staten Island or the Jersey Shore, or any of the other spots where they got it really bad.
GQ: Was there a particular "New York moment" during the Hurricane? Did you see something that'd made you think, "That'd only happen in this city"?
Well, I don't know if you'd call this a "New York moment", but I definitely saw something I'd never seen before. The night all the power went out, I was standing out on my balcony, looking outside the window. Out of nowhere, I saw this big green flash across the sky. It wasn't lightning. It looked... It looked like a UFO.
GQ: Nice. What was it really?
A UFO. I'm telling you, man.
GQ: You really think it was a UFO?
I don't know, man. I'd never seen anything like that before.
Interesting. A UFO? Well, maybe it was. I'm no astronomer, but my best guess would be Williams saw an aurora? Although I haven't the slightest clue if that phenomenon is even possible in the sky's of New York City.
