I always thought the Fortress of Solitude was in the North.

Traditionally, the Fortress of Solitude is located in the Arctic, though more recent versions of the Superman comics have placed the Fortress in other locations, including the Antarctic, the Andes, and the Amazon rainforest.

UFO? Ball of snow? Hmmm… the odds of these two being the cause are just about even.

Well what do we actually know about how aliens travel around the galaxy? Maybe they fly in chunks of ice. I’d call this one unsolved and add it to the rotation on The History Channel.

Boy, it’s weird how that UFO came straight off that mountain and crashed…

A crashed UFO is no longer a UFO, it is a UCO (unidentified crashed object).

ETA: Actually, because the object in question was never known to be flying in the first place, it can’t be said that it crashed, so it’s merely a UO (more commonly called a thingamajig).

Disappointed it is probably a snowball.

The abominable snowman dropped a big log, and it slid down the slope. Don’t be near it when it thaws out.

Maybe an ice giant lost his penis to global warming?
