Thank you Starbeast. Don't forget me in that round of drinks.
Speaking of lawns, mine is sprouting all over too and will need some cutting. If you want to fly over you can do cut my lawn as well.
You're welcome Bowler1. Your drink is free, so grab a cold one. It would be too pricey for you to pay for my round-trip ticket and for yard service from me. But at least I do a great job on lawn and gardens.
Thanks for the nice review, Starbeast! Great to read all of your thoughts on May's stories! CC
YOu're welcome and thank you Cat's. I try to do my best, even if I see a story in a different perspective.
The messenger was probably executed, but Earth might make it if you know what the old somethingother thing is that the messenger was referring to and manage to find the device. Then again, maybe it was the messenger who was the bad guy and pressing the button on the device isn't such a good thing, or is it?
Thanks for the review!
You're very welcome A. Fare Wells. True, one can never tell if a stranger is truthful or not. Especially if he's one of the aliens from space Professor Stephen Hawking was warning us about. Besides, it's against the law to communicate with aliens from other worlds, in America anyways. Go figure.
Many thanks, Starbeast, for your very kind words, especially as this is my first attempt at a 75-worder!
You are very welcome Serendipity. Nice work.
Alien Invasion/Classic Sci-Fi
(part two)
Tywin - Ohhhh yeah, I mean, (ahem), it's definately a guy-thing to be distracted by beautiful women. There's a cluster of those classic female invasion B-movies out there, and you've done a great job of joining the group. Humorous and huge, I mean, good stuff.
Victoria Silverwolf - High marks to your refined tale, which is wonderfully narrated by a Native American Indian. I was taken back by your straight forward and realistic approach, that made the drama more intense. Very outstanding with solid writing.
Cornelius - Alright, a Dr Who story. I almost did a Dr Who tale myself, but I love your idea better, it's fantastic how you slipped that zinger in at the end, stunning the reader. I'm a another Dr Who fan (not many who aren't), that you brought excitment to.
Mosaix - Oh man, those alien warriors have quite a report to fill out. I could imagine their finishing statment, probably saying, "...and the stench was unbelivable." A tremendous tale that stays afoat, and is chocked with otherworldly creamy goodness.
Ratsy - For a child, it's always an easy choice to be on the winning side, even if it means joining the invaders from space. Exceptionally far-out story that would make a fine episode for the classic 1960's tv show, The Outer Limits. Nice work.
Juliana - Our parents always warned us when we were young, to watch what we say. The same can be said for adults, especially if confronted by extreterrestrials who don't understand our ways. This terrific offerring is a megaton of coolness. Good stuff.
Ashleyne. B. Watts - First off, nice to meet you. And second, you've crafted a tale that combines the strength of love between two people, tested to it's limits with alien possession. A good thought-provoking idea that makes a person think, "What would I do?"
Martin321 - Whoa nelly! You've definately caught me by the short hairs of my neck that were sticking up by creepiness, and stretched them over my face. You created a very freaky story that crosses the invisible line of sanity. Astoundingly entertaining.
Perpetual Man - I love this story, because I'm a super fan of the late, great author, H.G. Wells. I was overwhelmed by the superb idea you had by combining three of his best stories. I almost wrote a War of the Worlds story too, but I didn't get far with it, but you certainly did.
Hopewrites - This is a very delectable and tastefully written sci-fi entry you've put together. Perfectly seasoned with ingredients and cooked to perfection. I was happy to devour this story. And like the food on the other planet, your tale is fabulous too.
Hex - Ah, another finely brewed delight by you. You've mixed rare potions from other planets and animal elements into your magic cauldron to conjure up another fine treat. Incredible imagery and a pinch of dark humor abounds in your out-of-the-ordinary offering.
Mr Orange - Marvelous tale of the unexpected. This is an astonishing story that has the feel of those wonderful old pulp magazines from the past. And, may I say, you were definately thinking out of the box. Crater moles on the Moon, I like that.
Johnnyjet - Mu-ha ha ha ha ha. Talk about getting the drop on the opposition first. I love the turn-around on the impending Earth invasion that backfires and puts the extraterrestrails on the run. Nicely done sir and very cool outcome. I enjoy happy endings.
Chrispenycate - Masterfully written with fierce poetic homage to the amazaing science fiction magazines of the "silver age" of comic book entertainment. You blew me away with this magnificant offering that filled my mind with classic cover artwork. Awesome!
