Machiavelli was Abducted by Aliens!

In my most recent research in Italy, I've discovered some unbelievable information that has been hidden for years. Apparently, Niccolo Machiavelli was abducted by Aliens in 1513 while exiled to his family estate outside of Florence. It is through the aliens that Machiavelli developed the ideas for his famous book, The Prince. For years, political scientists have marveled over the ideas developed by Machiavelli, and were perplexed over whether or not he developed those ideas himself. Usually, people build their ideas upon other people's ideas, but Machiavelli's ideas seems to have come from nowhere--of course, now we know that it wasn't nowhere from which they came--it was outer space.

Apparently, Machiavelli came into contact with an alien named Zozor. His friend, famous Renaissance artist, and fellow Florentine, Michelangelo was visiting Machiavelli on his estate when he saw the abduction happen. He then painted his now famous painting "Machiavelli and the Alien". For years, art historians thought that Michelangelo was hallucinating when he saw the alien "take Machiavelli away"--they figured it was because he had spent the previous three years lying flat on his back painting the Sistine Chapel and the blood had rushed to his head. But now we know that Michelangelo was actually painting what he had seen for real on that fateful day in June of 1513.

Machiavelli was inspired by the artwork of the aliens, which is what they used to communicate to him. Out of this came some of his most famous ideas, including the idea that a ruler should be like a lion and a fox. Unfortunately for Machiavelli, the aliens warned him to keep this gift to himself, and they told him that they didn't want anyone to know about their visit. Machiavelli, however, wanted fame and fortune so when he got home he immediately called a press conference. The aliens had no choice but to return to Earth and turn Machiavelli into a marble statue. Fortunately for the aliens only the famously disreputable Weekly World News published the story, and people just attributed the work of the Prince to the workings of an evil genius--Machiavelli himself. So Machiavelli got his fame and fortune....unfortunately thanks to his big mouth, however, he didn't live to enjoy all that fame and fortune himself!

My next research will take me to England where I suspect that 1970s Pop Rock sensation Sir Elton John is an alien in disguise. I have gotten some great leads on that, and I'll keep people posted of the evidence that I find. Happy alien hunting!!
