This map indicates the incidence of UFO sightings across America, broken down by county. Darker areas mean more reports of strange cigar-shaped objects floating silently in the sky and, optionally, anally probing their observers. Lighter areas mean fewer.
There is only one conclusion to be drawn from this data: That the Cajuns of south Louisiana, who inhabit what is apparently the most UFO-free zone in America, are the nation’s most reasonable and logical people.

What's weird is that UFO sightings are almost inversely related to total population.

I think it means they're mostly looking down to make sure the gators don't eat 'em.
