Hee! Liked it!

ty ty ty and a hug...

V.

It's always wonderful when your imagination becomes real.

*puts phone into airplane mode and throws it across the room*

^.=.^

heeheehee... that doesn't count...

V.

I like to think it does. ^.=.^

Chuckles. I like Brussel sprouts.

I sorta like them... we used to have them when I was a kid...

V.

This sounds like my imagination when I was a kid.

Oh... me too, all the way...

V.

I believe my question would have been, "Will you take me to the stars?" I need a break from this planet.

at this point I think I would agree with you whole heartedly... I could use a break...

V.

I have thought for a long time I was born on the wrong planet, in the wrong time period >.>
As much as I like fall weather and sunsets, I would jump at the chance to vacation on a different world.

It was a witch that convinced me that brussel sprouts could be amazing. Before that, I'd had an irrational prejudice against the poor brassicas.

a witch... really? That is so cool... my brother once sat at the table till 9 at night because he refused to eat them. He told me even the dog wouldn't eat them.

V.

I've met a dog that supposedly liked brussel sprouts, though I never saw her eat them. Poor girl was diabetic due to an unhealthy diet of B&B scones and breakfast sausage in her youth. As for the witch, I couldn't convince her she was a witch, but I'm pretty damn certain she is one. Sweet lady.

*chuckles... I spoil my dogs rotten too... trust me, they would eat brussel sprouts. They were helping me eat my asparagus tonight, and in the dog pen I have 'dog poop tomatoes'. I feed them the scrapes when I'm making the salads, and that's what happens. Soooooo... today I look out on the porch just in time to see the female with a ball... she dropped it out of her mouth and I found it to be a tomato, which she promptly ate.

I don't say anything, because they planed them, after all.

V.

She reaps what she sowed... But they must be good dogs, as the fruit seems good, and it is said "Ye shall know them by their fruits."

Esel

*laughs...

V.

My life in a nutshell.

Bunners

*laughs... I knew there was a reason...

V.

Okay, now I'm caught up with your work.

“What’s a Kabitulator?”

Love it. LOL

I have no idea what it is, but I'm betting you'd want one for your truck...

V.

Hehe great story! Who as a kid did *not* dream of flying off in a rocket ship? Reminds me of the kind I used to read about as a kid, or similar in vein to the Amazing Stories TV show.
I really enjoyed this one.

ty ty ty ... at the age of the young fellow in the story, I had a plastic spaceman figure, maybe twice larger than the green army soldiers. I have no idea where I found it, nor what ever happened to him, and it seemed we played for only one day. I want to say he was sort of like Buck Rogers...

V.

Definitely brings back those childhood memories, the sibling rivalries and the many adventures one would take using only what you had.

The way you presented the robot and had the starship turn out to be the one Junior built really harks back to the science fiction stories of the 50s brilliantly, while also keeping the story fresh in its own right.

*smiles... I will admit there were pieces of my childhood in this one... thank you...

V.

Always a pleasure, Vixyy.

Next time we meet, I wouldn't mind sharing a couple memories, and listening to your own... *Smiles back.*

we could be sitting for hours...

V.

Hmm interesting and fun read...

I do hope there may be more added to this tale.

*smiles... I think that's all for this one Fem...

V.

Why yes, Mrs. Fox... could be...

*smiles... could be...

V.

*laughs... only you...

V.

To boldly go....and eat Brussel Sprouts.

*laughs... I have a brussel sprout plant growing on my porch...

V.

In honor of the story?

noooo... just because I never grew one before...
