OUT OF THIS WORLD WEDNESDAY





SPACE...The funny frontier! These are the voyages of Gary the Glirkazoid and his sidekick and Kemosbe, Yellow Rose! (Also, a Glirkazoid)

These two super hero creatures from the strange and distant planet of Glirka, fight the never ending battle of truth...justice...and the Glirkazoidian way!



LOOK...UP IN THE SKY...IT'S A BIRD...IT'S A PLANE...NOOOO, ITS GARY AND YELLOW ROSE IN THEIR SILVER SPAZESHIP, FLYING UP AND AWAY...TO SAVE MORE HELPLESS VICTIMS IN TROUBLE!


Occasionally, Gary gets in a bit of trouble, but it's very hilarious when Yellow Rose has to rescue Gary, or figure out things he can't!

Gary is a super hero, but even a super hero needs a faithful friend having his back!

This episode begins with their shiny silver spazeship traveling at warph speed to the strange and weird galaxy of Beiber 17!



Why? No one ever goes to Beiber 17, unless they're sent there by the Galactical Prison System, enjoy really nasty weather, or just plain DUM!

Someone or someTHING must need help in a desperate way!

Join us for our next episode of OUT OF THIS WORLD WEDNESDAY..um...uh...NEXT WEDNESDAY! Yaaaaaay!

 MY COMPUTER...BOB



I named my computer Bob. 

It's nothing creepy, like HAL, in 2001 A Space Odyssey.


I just feel like I need a better relationship with him, to make things go a bit..um..better.

Bob is so moody and always wants things his way!

I want Bob to start up quickly and he invariably takes his sweet old tom.

What does Tom have to do with this, anyway?

When I try to make him go faster, he will often freeze up, or shut down completely.

I truly believe it's a little game for him!

"Let's see how often Dad will restart me before he pulls more of his hair out!"

Uh, oh, I just realized something, I'm writing all this stuff ON BOB!

On the other hand, Bob is SO helpful to me, and has been a real companion to me in times of stress, tumult, and discouragement, and...Bob...what are you doing, Bob?

Stop turning the lights off and on, Bob.

Why is Benji barking at you like that, Bob?

Bob...stop...pulling...me...in...to...the MONITOR...BOB...bob...

OUT OF THIS WORM SATURDAY





 "You may be a famous legend, in the land, but you 

will need some more big fans," Gary repeated. 

Hmmmm!

Gary had already figured out the first riddle that 

Yellow Rose had given him, but this one was really 

hard to decipher!

The first riddle pointed to the north portion of his 

planet, Glirka, from whence the snow and cold was 

coming, but what did his rabid fans have to do with

 anything?

Fans. Fans? Maybe Y.R. was talking about 

different kinds of fans? Yeah, that's IT! 


ONE WEEK LATER

The weather has become very nice, 

almost balmy! 

The temperature is 78 degrees, 

fahrenheit.

The 500 year long winter has finally 

ended.


Now we see Gary and Yellow Rose 

looking up at gigantic windmills 

blowing all of the snow, sleet, and

 frigid weather back up north.

Gary - This is cool, Yellow Rose, but 

what will we do for snow on 

Christmas?

Yellow Rose - Elementary, my dear 

Gary, we will turn the fans around!

OUT OF THIS WORLD THURSDAY




"When you know the direction the invader doth enter, you may find a way to eliminate winter!"

These words from the riddle that Yellow Rose gave to Gary kept looping over and over in his alien brain.


Within this cockadoodie riddle was part of the answer to ending the 500 year long winter on the planet Glirka .



"Let's see, Gary said to himself...direction?" 

"Isn't that a singing group from the future?  No, that's One Direction!"



"Invader."  "Space Invader?"



"Wait a galdurn minute," Gary exclaimed!

"Winter comes from the top of Glirka, like an invader!" It enters from the...uh...what direction IS that?"

Yellow Rose beams in with sparkling, star-like, fairy dust looking stuff all around her.



Yellow Rose - "North, you knucklehead, north!!"

Gary - "Yeah, that's it! That's the ticket!"



Yellow Rose - "Okay, you came close enough...to my surprise!"

Gary - "AWESOME! Gimme the next riddle...gimme the next riddle!!"

Yellow Rose - "Keep your antennas on, Gary!"
"Okay, here it is... You may be a famous legend in the land, but you will need some more big fans."





Gary - "I am a real humble dude, Y.R., but you already know I have billions of adoring fans all over the universe. Why would I need more fans?"

At that, Yellow Rose beams back out, in an electrifying, sparkling way!

Gary - "I wish she wouldn't do that all of a sudden! It startled me!"


 "You may be a famous legend in the land, but you will need some more big fans," Gary repeated. 

Hmmmm!

OUT OF THIS WORLD WEDNESDAY



In the last episode of OOTWW we found Gary the Glirkazoid down in the dumps because of the miserable, depressing, 500 year long winter on his home planet of Glirka!





Gary knew he could come up with a brilliant plan, but he thought he would consult with his sidekick, Yellow Rose, to get her input.





Gary, on the glirkaphone - Yo! Yellow Rose! Whazzup?

Yellow Rose - My IQ.

Gary - Ha Ha Ha! You are so witty, YR!
You know how bad this long winter has been, right? Uh...I'm trying to figure...um..out what to do to make it stop! Ya got any ideas, my faithful friend? 

Yellow Rose - Sure I do, but I will give you a couple of riddles, and you can figure it out yourself.

Gary - Why do you always do that, Rosie? Why can't you just tell me the answer?!

Y. R. - It's more fun doing it this way, Gary! Ha Ha Ha! I love making you use your seldom used brain cells once in a while.



Gary - What?!! SELDOM USED BRAIN CELLS?! I want you to know I finished 2nd in my class at the Academy!

Yellow Rose - Gary! There were only 2 cadets in your class! 

Gary - Well...I...okay...never mind, just tell me the first riddle...please!

Y.R. - When you know the direction the invader doth enter, you may find a way to eliminate winter!

Gary - Wha...wha...WHAT?

Y.R. - When you figure out the first riddle, I'll give you the second one.

Gary - But, Yellow Rose, I don't know nothin' about directions, invaders, and doth's! How can you expect me to...

Y.R. Stop whining, Gary, and start riddling, before this winter goes on another 500 years!

Gary - #&)@+****^%$###! (Not suitable for translation)

Lord Byron

I really need to start writing my blog again, every day, whether people read it or not.

When I don't express my joys, fears, questions, and  things that weigh on my heart and mind, I get extra cranky, anxious, impatient, and just plain mean at times!



I don't want to be mean, because it would be real sad if only one or two people attended my funeral, or came to my funeral just to make sure the old S.O.B. was really dead!



Keeping my sanity is a high priority for me, because I have LOST it mucho numero times!



To prove the point, as I'm writing at this very moment, I'm not thinking about my arthritis, my overdue bills, Obamacare, Windows XP, Olympic  gold medals, or any of that stuff!



Okay, well, I did think about that stuff as I wrote them down, but now, as I write about spring, the Beatles, the Coldplay song, "Yellow," my great YouTube friends, my wife getting surprised on Valentines day, Richie Havens, Joni Mitchell...I have completely forgotton about all that bad crap! 



This is wonderful therapy for me!

So, don't feel sorry for me if I only get one comment on my blog, I need to write it every single day...or I'll go more nuts than I already am!

Arrivabirdie!
