In slightly less offbeat (but not much) news, a friend found this and the old ad below while doing some research. Does it count as a birthday UFO if it showed up ony my birthday but before I was born?

"Flying Saucer at Howard Lake"
A score of persons or more claim to have seen a "flying saucer" hovering
over Howard Lake 5:30 to 9:00 p.m. Sunday November 15th. One of the
persons is Supt. Earl W. Anderson, a WWII pilot, who says it was definitely
not an airplane, helicopter, or autogiro. They say it looked like an
inverted saucer with lights semicircularly around the craft. It seemed
to be at an altitude of 15,000 to 20,000 feet.
