"Area 51" is the popular name for a military testing facility located near Groom Lake Nevada. The "lake" is actually a dry bed of salt on which there are several runways. The facility itself is owned jointly by the Department of Defense and the United States Air Force and is believed to be used in the development of new types of aircraft as well as the analysis of enemy weapons systems. In popular culture, it is believed to be the site of various dealings with extraterrestrials (aliens) and such organizations as the "Men in Black" (most likely derived from ad campaigns in the early 1900's promoting government jobs and agents as "G-men"). The famous U-2 and Blackbird reconnaissance planes were tested at Groom Lake before official deployment.

A massive stockpile of a long lost fishing lure called a Mosquito Hawk. Their existence has been denied for years but I still have a couple left. Of course I run the risk of being hunted down and abducted myself for telling you this. If they find out I have one of these lures, there's no telling what they will do to me.

There's supposed to be like some sort of "Alein" life form there I've heard. I don't know for sure though.

I really hate it when someone beats me to my Elvis answer. But he forgot JFK, MM and Andy Warhol.
