Out Of This World Wednesday - Grabber Games




Rosie and Gary, our glorious Glirkazoid galaxy geeks, have lost the Great Jewel Of Neprotonicus 11, in the massive implosion of Neprotonicus 11, just a few minutes ago.



Gary - "Woe is we, Rosie!  The FIRST mission we have miserably failed at, girl."



Rosie - "This is NOT the first mission we've failed, Gary. Remember the time we got "lost in space," and never made it to Quleerian...Planet Of Cat People in time to change their global litter box? We had to sweep up kitty krap for 7 yestrereiums!"



Gary - "Yeah, but..."

Rosie - "We also messed up the mission to help the Munchkins Of  Missapeerious, when you partook of two much Hard Purple Glirf and called them pipsqueaks and midgets, which caused them to turn on us, instead of the giant gantigos beast about to attack their puny population!"



Gary - "That WAS real messy, but..."

Rosie - "Another time, we were summoned to the planet of Surrealius, to divert a city-sized asteroid that was about to destroy the whole cockadoodie planet, and we diverted it alright...into their twin planet of R.U. Sirius, which was a lot more important than Surrealius, because of the vast amount of comedians that resided there! And you say, we've never failed a mission?!!"



Gary - "Rosie, look back at the top of the page! I said, this is the first mission we have MISERABLY failed at! Other missions we have stupendously failed at, or horribly failed at, or even catastrophically failed at, but this is the first we have MISERABLY  failed at!"



Rosie - "You do have a point, Gary. But if you wear a floppy hat, no one will see it!"



Gary - "Ha ha. You're funnier than a screen door on a subma..."

Rosie - "GARY!!! LOOK OUT OF THE PORTHOLE ON THE STARBOARD SIDE OF THE SHIP!!!"

Gary - "Rosie...you know I never can remember which side is starboard, and which is port!"

Rosie - "OVER HERE! WHERE I'M LOOKING OUT OF THE PORTHOLE, NUMBSKULL!!

As our two Glirkazoid gawkers stare out into the blackness of spaze, they see something astonishing! The unmistakable green glow of the Great Jewel Of Neprotonicus 11, drifting about 100 zehecktermeters from the Silver Sausage spazeship!!!



Gary - "How can this be, Rosie?!! When objects are imploded, they are swiftly sucked into a black hole, never to be seen again!"



Rosie - "That's true, my dear Watson...but if the object is made up of antimatter particulates, infused with hyperion energy delfamations, with a twist of corogenic, profusinary, nano technology, like the Great Jewel Of Neprotonicus 11, the object can escape the forces of implosion!!"



Gary - "Wow! I love it when you talk scientific! Who's Watson?!"

Rosie - "No time to talk now, Gary! We need to use our robotic, grabber arms to retrieve the Great Jewel from the endless, vast reaches of spaze, cadet!!"



Gary - "LET ME DO IT!! LET ME DO IT!!!"

Rosie - "Very well, go ahead."

Gary - "How do I do it, now?"

Rosie - "(Sigh) Grab two of those small, round, metal disks and put them in the slot. Now, work the "joy stick" to make the arm go different directions, until you're directly over the Great Jewel. Push the button on top of the "joy stick" and the claw will drop and grab the jewel, where you can maneuver it back to the Silver Sausage and drop it in the hatch. Kapeesh?"



Gary - "Kapeeshin' all the way, Rosie!! The Great Jewel is as good as got, my friend!!"

After MANY tries, MANY metal disks, and  a lot of Glirkazoid grofanity, Gary gives up!

Gary - "This is IMPOSSIBLE, Rosie! We'll just have to chalk this mission up to our first miserable failure."

Rosie - "Let me try, okay?"

Gary - "Ha ha ha! Rosie! If I couldn't retrieve the Great..."

Rosie - "Got it!"

At that, Rosie drops the elusive jewel down the hatch, and the glorious, gleaming, Great Jewel Of Neprotonicus 11 shines brightly on the poop deck of the ship! 

Okay. Now the folks who have just inhabited Neprotonicus 12 will have the power from the Great Jewel to, uh, power their homes and businesses for time immemorial...If  our Glirkazoid heroes make it there alive!!

Next Wednesday we will follow the Silver Sausage spazeship, and our Glirkazoid grabber gurus, to more adventures and madcap madness in OUT OF THIS WORLD WEDNESDAY!!
