One of our editors got a set of proofs back from a proofreader yesterday. The book is written mainly in Portugese, and English is not the proofreader's first language. A note sent with the proofs read:

I apologize for food that dripped on 3 pages in the packet. I place stacks on the floor and it may have caught some rolling aliens in it.

You know, I think this whole place might be infested with rolling aliens! Pesky bastards.

Rolling aliens? How does that go? "Stop, drop and move to another planet."

Actually I think the guy's based in Brazil, so maybe he's talking about some illegal aliens who might have stowed away in the package. :)
