Out Of This World Wednesday
Episode IV
Checklists Suck Solar Wind!






Having completed the all important, pre-flight checklist, our intrepid Glirkazoid gadabouts recline in their comfy flight chairs, located on the flight deck of the Silver Sausage spazeship. 




Rosie - "Ready to go over the check list, Admiral?"




Gary - "What do you mean, Admiral Rosie? We ALREADY went over the checklist!!"




Rosie - "No, no. That was the supply checklist. Now we need to go over the Silver Sausage spazeship checklist!"

Gary - "Oh, brother. Very well. Proceed with the SSSC."

Rosie - "Don't mind if I do! Okay! Steering device?"

Gary - (moves the steering device back and forth) "Steering."

Rosie - "You're supposed to say CHECK, Gary! Follow ancient protocol, wouldya? Continuing on...front beams?"

Gary - "Beamin'!" 

Rosie - "Why are you being so insubordinate, buddy?"

section 5, subsection a-2, it states, when Glirkazoids 
of the same rank give orders to each other, they MUST 
obey the orders of each other as if they were being 
ordered by a superiorly ranked Glirkazoid."




Gary - "I'm not taking your worm for it, Rosie! 
Show me from the book!"



Rosie - "I'm offended, Gary! You don't trust me?!"

Gary - "Show me the book!"

Rosie - "Well, er, um, I forgot to include the Spaze 
Travel Rule Book  on the check list, and it's still at my 
place of dwelling."


Rosie's humble abode

Gary - "Do tell. What I think is, you are making all 
this..."

Suddenly, a message comes in from the
 Glirkazoid High Command!!

checklist, and get your Glirkazoid glutes

Glirkazoidian "spaze force," we are constantly 
monitored 124/70!" (akin to 24/7 on Earth)

Gary - "I wish you would have told me, Rosie!
