BIG NEWS!! I think Ive discovered

something that dwarfs the Flange Orbit

theory that brought us up here in thefirst place!! An electric anomaly has

manifested in the fringe areas of our

galaxy. Alien life, perhaps, or is it merely

an electric anomaly that has manifested

in the fringe areas of our galaxy? This

requires a greater degree of study than I

can devote to, so Bones had to pick up

the slack while I concentrate on my

other keen experiments (Im right in the

middle of developing a nuclear-blast-

proof automatic page turner! YOW!) For

an odd looking dog, he certainly comes

in handy. With his assistance, I feel

sometimes that I can be in two places

at once.

Not much happening today, I actually got

a chance to sleep in for a change. The

place is a mess! Bones is really shirking

his duties.

Weird dream last night. Something about

all humans having an evil twin in the

form of a masked chicken. Sure itsweird, but would it really be all that bad

a reality shift?????????

Dammit!! The streams!! I completely

DISASTER!!!!!!!!!!

Bones was able to fix the monitor so

we could observe the devastation via

television. The aftereffects of the

invasion include a gigantic black andwhite storm that looks identical to

television static. How long will it last?

The people of Earth have been taken

over by an alien force known as the

well keep busy up here. You just focus

on the task at hand and youll do us

proud!

Oh, and sorry about the round-trip snafu.

Ill figure out a way to get you back up

here. Right now the smallest thing on the

drafting table is about the size of a tank

and you cant possibly put that on your

back... but we will have fresh biscuitsand tea waiting for you once you get

back and save the Earth and all. I mean,

its the least we can do for a hero!

Oh, yes, and GET MOVING! Bones just

dropped two special weapons down the

chute and youll to catch up with them!!

(I really need to develop a sedative for

that dog!)

Now keep moving and keep your head

down!
