OUT OF THIS WORLD SATURDAY

SPECIAL SATURDAY EDITION

Gary was concerned about Yellow Rose and wanted to cheer her up a bit.

She was usually fired up about their thrilling missions, but lately she seemed a bit...blah. 

Gary - "Okay, Y.R., spit it out. What's wrong?"

Yellow Rose - "It's just that the whole universe seems out of whack, Gary. Even when we save a billion inhabitants of a doomed galaxy, destroy an evil space monster, or teach "The Dance Of Joy" to a whole population, bad things still happen! I'm about to give up."

Gary - "You know what you need to do, Yellow Rose?"

Yellow Rose - "What?" (She says through little pink tears)

Gary - "Pray...and I'll pray WITH you!"

Yellow Rose - "I've never heard you mention prayer before, Gary! I thought you were too self sufficient to pray."

Gary - "No way, Y.R.! I'm a praying fool! I just don't flaunt it!"

Yellow Rose - "Well, you learn something new every day! I pray too, but I feel like God doesn't always answer my prayers."

Gary - "Sure he does, you just don't know it!"

Yellow Rose - "I don't get what you mean."

Gary - "Okay, let's say you pray for perfect health, and you're sick all the time. God is allowing this to...

All of a sudden, a pure, bright shining blue light appears in the spaceship...Yellow Rose and Gary fall on their faces, because they are sore afraid! The appearance of the most beautiful Angel you could ever imagine transforms before them, and begins to speak!

"I AM THE ANGEL WHO WATCHES OVER GLIRKAZOIDS! FEAR NOT, BECAUSE I HAVE COME TO BRING YOU GREAT TIDINGS OF GLAD JOY, OR IS IT THE OTHER WAY AROUND? ANYWAY, YOUR PRAYERS HAVE NOT GONE UNANSWERED...IN GOD'S DUE TOM, ALL THINGS WILL BE MADE RIGHT AND BLESSINGS WILL FLOW TO YOU TWO FAITHFUL ONES PRESSED DOWN AND SHAKEN TO THE FULL MEASURE OF BOUNTIFULNESS! BE PATIENT AND WAITETH ON THE HAND OF THE LORD!"

In a fraction of a second, the beautiful, glorious Angel... vanishes!

Yellow Rose - "WOW! That was wonderful! 

She said exactly what I needed to hear!"

Gary - "How do you know the Angel was a she? I thought Angels were neutral in that area." 

Yellow Rose - "You dummy! With that pretty face, long flowing hair, soft sweet voice, and lovely form fitting gown, ANYONE could see that she's a female Angel...lame brain!"

Gary - "I'm glad you're back to your old self, Yellow Rose!" Ready to go on the mission?"

Yellow Rose - "Ready, willing and able, my friend! Let's roll!" 

My...how I LOVE happy endings!!
