Default Aliens in Sosúa

did anyone see a bright orange ball moving slowly and silently across the sky last night around 11 oclockpm - it came from cabarete direction and looked like a ball of fire but moving slowly and fairly low. Just wondering what it was and if anyone else saw it.

no drink or drugs were involved

not sure if related, but supposedly the devil's been sighted in el callejon (cabarete) on sunday night. centaur like... bull's lower body (2 legs), man's upper body, head of the devil. perhaps was moving on for a few nights of r&r in sosua.

described to me as looking kind of like this, but was perceived as un chin mas threatening. drink or drugs may have been involved.

I'm sure the orange ball wasn't drinking or using drugs, orange balls are famous teetotallers. What we need to know is, were you?

Default Rover?

I loved the Prisoner ( as well as Secret Agent man which segued into the Prisoner). We were all outside playing billiards in my "pool pavilion". We didn't see "rover" going by.

I think the ball in the prisoner was called Rover.

Default Rover from the prisoner was white, and #6 was McGoohan's number

YouTube - Enter Rover

This seems to confirm my memory that the name of the ball from The Prisoner was Rover.

Number 6 was indeed McGoohan's number.

YouTube - The Prisoner - Number Six

I am not a number, I am a free man.......................

You are indeed correct that the name of the earlier show as Danger Man. It was the theme song that was Secret Agent Man performed by Johnny Rivers
