Palien Green: Master Series Bible (v9)

🌌 Core Premise

Palien Green follows the exploits of Zazzo and Drizzla, the last surviving consciousnesses of an advanced, pale-green reptilian-amphibian humanoid race whose physical forms were lost during a catastrophic cosmic crisis. Coinciding with the comet impact that caused Earth's Cretaceous extinction event (K-Pg) 65 million years ago, their civilization's Moon Mothership—the Diana Luna—was forced into an emergency parking orbit.

Now existing as digital uploads within the Moon's central computer network, they project themselves as solid, tactile "Quantum Force Holograms" to influence human history, deploy localized reconnaissance fleets, and slowly guide humanity toward technological advancements capable of repairing their stranded vessel.

## 🧬 The Origin of the Pale Green Moonies (Deep History)

### 1. The Cosmic Billiards Crisis (7 Billion Years BCE)

While the planet **Foo** evolved its own native, highly resilient flora and fauna under the intense radiation of **Palien** ($\gamma^1$ Delphini), the Paliens themselves are not native to the Delphini system. Their true origin lies in a completely different sector of the Milky Way Galaxy, dating back over seven billion years.

The original Palien homeworld orbited a star system nearly identical to the high-energy, yellow-white setups they seek out today. Their civilization’s destiny was irrevocably altered by a catastrophic cosmic event: a small, rogue black hole made a close flyby through their native system.

By the sheer "magic of cosmic billiards"—or a god of chance in a spectacularly good mood—the physics of the encounter played out in a brilliant paradox of survival:

* **System Disruption:** The intense gravitational shear of the black hole physically ripped the original binary stars away from each other.

* **The Star-Stretching Miracle:** As the black hole passed, it stripped away a massive portion of outer stellar material from the Paliens' primary host star.

* **The Stability Extension:** By bleeding off that excess mass, the star’s nuclear furnace slowed down, shifting its accelerated lifecycle. This cosmic accident extended the star's main-sequence stability by an extra **2 billion years**, granting the planet a massive window of safety to support carbon-based life.

* **Orbital Preservation:** Miraculously, the Paliens' original homeworld was not swallowed, ejected, or frozen; it settled into a newly stabilized, perfectly balanced orbit right within the modified Goldilocks zone.

### 2. The Genesis of the Moonships

This stolen time—those extra two billion years of planetary life—allowed the primitive Paliens to grow, evolve, and ultimately build an incredibly advanced, unified global civilization. They became deeply aware of how fragile a single solar system could be, and they dedicated their entire technological evolution to master-engineering planetary-scale ark vessels.

This era birthed the **Moonship technology**, massive hollowed-out celestial hulls like the **Diana Luna**. Designed to preserve their collective culture, genetic blueprints, and AI networks, these vessels were built for one specific purpose: to seek out and colonize high-energy stellar systems that mirror the pristine, original conditions of their first, long-lost home.

### 3. The 7-Billion-Year Diaspora

For at least seven billion years, the Paliens have been a spacefaring, star-hopping diaspora of "pale green moonies". They traverse the deep black in their camouflaged moon-arks, dropping into crossroads systems like Gamma Delphini, planting colonial roots, and adapting to the local worlds while their motherships maintain silent vigil in the shadows.

---

## 💥 The Sol Catastrophe & The Emergency Parking Orbit (65 Million BCE)

### 1. The Hyperdrive Quantum Surge

The *Diana Luna’s* long voyage across the cosmic crossroads suffered a devastating mechanical failure while passing through the immediate vicinity of Earth's solar system (Sol).

The specific AI navigation subsystem within **L.U.N.A.T.I.C.** that directly governs the ship's hyperdrive operations experienced a sudden, catastrophic anomaly: a massive **quantum vacuum particle spike** erupted directly within its energy core. This localized energy cascade had immediate, devastating chain reactions throughout the ship's vital systems:

* **Core Erasure:** The sheer intensity of the quantum spike completely wiped out the AI's specialized crystalline processing core.

* **Hyperdrive Burnout:** The electrical and quantum feedback surged instantly into the propulsion arrays, utterly destroying the critical **warp-tuning crystals** housed inside the *Diana Luna's* hyperdrive mechanics.

### 2. The Cretaceous Insertion

With its hyperdrive instantly neutralized and its master navigation AI crippled, the massive vessel was left stranded in real-space. Stripped of interstellar travel capabilities, Commander Zazzo was forced to execute an immediate, emergency tactical maneuver.

The *Diana Luna* was steered directly into Sol's third orbital plane and dropped into an emergency parking orbit around Earth. This desperate synchronization occurred exactly 65 million years ago, seamlessly coinciding with the massive comet impact that triggered Earth's K-Pg prehistoric mass extinction. Hidden beneath a thick camouflage layer of natural regolith and space debris, the broken mothership began its long, multi-million-year silent vigil—trapped in plain sight as Earth's Moon.

🌌 System Profile: The Palien Crossroad

Target System: Gamma Delphini (A-Component) / Stellar Designation: Palien[cite: 1]

Primary Habitable World: Foo[cite: 1]

Mission Relevance: Background Origin & Prime Motivator for the Diana Luna Expedition[cite: 1]

1. The Primary Star: Palien ($\gamma^1$ Delphini)

In the Earthly catalog, Gamma Delphini is celebrated as a magnificent binary system 115 light-years away, famous for an optical illusion where its secondary star casts an emerald-green aura onto its companion[cite: 1]. For the inhabitants of the system, however, the yellow-white main-sequence dwarf star ($\gamma^1$) is simply Palien: the giver of life, and the ticking clock of their civilization[cite: 1].

Stellar Characteristics

Spectral Classification: F7V (Yellow-White Main-Sequence Dwarf)[cite: 1]

Mass: 1.6 M☉ (1.6 times the mass of Earth's Sun)[cite: 1]

Luminosity: ~7.5x Solar Luminosity[cite: 1]

System Age: 1.8 Billion Years[cite: 1]

The Cosmic Clock: Because of its higher mass, Palien burns its core hydrogen fuel at an accelerated rate compared to smaller yellow dwarfs like Sol[cite: 1]. Its total main-sequence lifespan is strictly capped at roughly 2.5 to 2.8 billion years[cite: 1]. With 1.8 billion years already spent, the Palien civilization faces a definitive expiration date: they have less than one billion years before their home star swells into a scorching subgiant, destabilizing the entire system[cite: 1].

The Pale Green Perception (Biological Optical Illusion)

Though astronomically a yellow-white F-type star, Palien uniquely registers as a distinct pale green to both human observers and the native Paliens due to separate evolutionary and biological traits[cite: 1]:

The Human Optical Trick: When viewed by human eyes through telescopes, Palien appears pale green[cite: 1]. This is not due to the physics of the star itself, but a trick of human biology—specifically how the red, blue, and green cones in the human retina process the high-contrast light output of the binary system[cite: 1].

The Palien Perception: The star also registers as pale green to the Paliens themselves[cite: 1]. However, their visual biology functions differently; Palien eyes perceive their home star through a retinal matrix composed of red, yellow, and blue cones[cite: 1].

2. The Homeworld: Foo

Foo is a rocky planet orbiting within Palien’s high-energy Goldilocks zone[cite: 1]. It is a world of stark beauty, intense radiation, and hyper-accelerated evolutionary adaptations, home to Zazzo, Drizzla, and the rest of the Palien race[cite: 1].

Orbital Mechanics & Climate

Orbital Distance: 2.75 Astronomical Units (AU) from Palien[cite: 1]. This deep positioning is required to offset the star's immense 7.5x solar brightness, keeping surface temperatures within a liquid-water threshold[cite: 1].

The Long Year: One full orbit around Palien (a Palien Year) takes approximately 3.9 Earth years[cite: 1].

Seasonal Cycles: Due to a stable, mild axial tilt and the stabilizing gravitational presence of the distant companion star ($\gamma^2$ Delphini, hanging like a distant orange-gold lantern 330 AU away), Foo enjoys long, predictable seasons, though its climate trends significantly warmer and more humid than Earth[cite: 1].

Planetary Physiology & Safeguards

Because Palien is an F-type star, it floods its orbital plane with intense, destructive ultraviolet (UV-B and UV-C) radiation[cite: 1]. For carbon-based life to survive on Foo, the planet evolved unique macro-shields[cite: 1]:

The Hyper-Shield Magnetosphere: Foo possesses an ultra-dense, churning molten iron-nickel core that generates a planetary magnetic field three times more powerful than Earth's[cite: 1]. This deflects the fierce stellar winds and prevents atmospheric stripping[cite: 1].

The Luminescent Atmosphere: The atmosphere is rich in heavy ozone arrays and dense, protective compound gases[cite: 1]. From the surface, this atmosphere scatters the hot yellow-white light of Palien, softening the sky into a shimmering, vibrant hue that frames the daily landscape[cite: 1].

3. The Prime Imperative: Project Diana Luna

The Paliens are fully aware of their star's rapid lifecycle[cite: 1]. The countdown is encoded into their stellar positioning, their historical data, and the changing temper of Palien itself[cite: 1].

Faced with a window of only a few hundred million years to ensure the survival of their species, the Paliens have bypassed localized planetary squabbles to focus their entire global output on deep-space migration[cite: 1]. The launching of massive colonial ark-vessels and exploratory capital hubs—such as the Diana Luna—is not an exercise in curiosity[cite: 1]. It is a desperate, beautifully coordinated leap across the cosmic crossroads to secure a new homeworld before Foo is consumed by the very star that birthed it[cite: 1].

🛰️ Master Vessel Reference: The Diana Luna (Earth's Moon)

I. Designation & Historical Timeline

Vessel Name: Diana Luna

Classification: Planetary-Scale Mothership / Strategic Ark

Current Status: Active / Operational (Stealth Parking Configuration)

Historical Insertion: Manually inserted into orbit approximately 65 million years ago by Commander Zazzo during the pre-historic K-Pg extinction event (coinciding with the dinosaur-killing comet impact) following a catastrophic hyperdrive failure.

II. Physical Scale & Astronomical Metrics

The Diana Luna physically occupies and utilizes the exact physical dimensions of Earth’s moon. To human observation and telescopic instruments, it is entirely indistinguishable from a natural celestial body.

Mean Radius: 1,737.4 kilometers (1,079.6 miles)

Total Diameter: 3,474.8 kilometers (2,159.2 miles)

Surface Area: 37.9 million square kilometers (14.6 million square miles)—roughly equivalent to the combined surface areas of Africa and Australia.

Transit Scale: Crossing the internal volume from one side of the ship's central axis to the other is structurally equivalent to a cross-country journey from Los Angeles to New York City.

III. Exterior Architecture & Engineering Features

1. The Engine Bay Iris (Sublight & Propulsion Systems)

Location: Permanently positioned on the "Dark Side" of the Moon to maintain complete operational secrecy from Earth.

Mechanics (The Dome Shutter): A massive, dome-shaped camera leaf shutter mechanism consisting of heavy, interlocking curved plates made of a pristine, green-tinted super-alloy. The plates slide over one another smoothly in a perfect circle to open or close.

Stealth Mode (Closed Configuration): When the engine bay is closed and locked, the outer plates align seamlessly and are masked by a deep, ancient accumulation of natural lunar regolith, impact craters, and space dust. It is completely undetectable by modern human technology.

Active Mode (Open Configuration): The mechanical leaves retract into the structural rim of the crust, opening a maw that spans no more than 20% of the total sphere. This exposes the massive, high-tech nested internal engine rings, allowing free deceleration thrusters and brilliant blue ion propulsion beams to run unrestricted.

IV. Internal Zoning & Structural Layout

The interior space is segmented into deep concentric spheres matching the natural geological layers of the moon to manage gravity, structural pressure, and technological housing.

The Crust Zone (Outer 50 km / 31 miles): The protective shell. Beneath the natural layer of rock and regolith lies the outer hull framework. Contains camouflaged hangars, sensor arrays hidden inside natural mountain ranges, defense turrets, and localized outposts like Zazzo’s hidden command bunker (marked externally by luminescent green crystalline structures).

The Mantle Zone (Deep Internal Caverns): The primary habitable envelope. Massive, carved mega-caverns that house Palien Green micro-cities, living quarters, sprawling hydroponic biomes, main corridors, and internal high-speed transit networks.

The Core Zone (Central 300-400 km): The heart of the vessel. Encloses the main power matrices, hyperdrive core systems, gravitational stabilizers, and the damaged master computer networks (such as the fried Master Chronos-Mind).

V. Featured Sector Profiles

1. Zazzo's Conference Lounge

Location: Upper Crust Command Matrix, offering a direct structural view of space.

Structural Layout: A sleek, minimalist briefing theater centered around a streamlined conference table. One side of the chamber features a sweeping panoramic observation window displaying Earth and the surrounding starfield, while the opposite bulkhead houses an integrated widescreen tactical display terminal.

This console features direct coupling nodes for his specialized metallic communication helmet, which he interfaces with to execute telepathic/neural control commands over the ship's remaining subsystems.

Secondary Station: Dedicated terminal situated parallel to the primary seat for First Officer Drizzla to monitor planetary-scale telemetry and biome life support.

Auxiliary Support Stations: Two flanking modular consoles designated for additional flight crew, engineering monitoring, or secondary navigation.

The Transporter Portal: An integrated, distinct mechanical exit pad located near the rear bulkheads of the bridge for secure instantaneous transit throughout the vessel's massive interior.

The Master Panoramic View Screen: A colossal, curved forward visual array. Because the bridge is physically subterranean, this screen acts as the ship's primary optical window to the universe. It utilizes an array of external hull sensors and remote camera feeds.

Active Telemetry Overlay: Displays high-resolution feeds transmitted directly from the vessel's active hardware. The upper-right corner of the primary display features an integrated, glowing green neon-style digital readout indicating the active tracking camera: "Source: Drone Foo 000042".

Manual Steering Override (The Analog Helm): A heavy, polished old-world wooden ship's steering wheel mounted directly adjacent to the main automated control matrix. This pure mechanical steering rig acts as a hardwired manual bypass system, allowing direct mechanical control over the Diana Luna's colossal maneuvering thrusters in the event of total computer network or AI failure.

3. The Primary Foo Fighter Hangar Bay

Location: Deep subterranean mega-cavern within the Crust Zone, structurally buried completely underneath a massive lunar mountain range.

Structural Layout & Scale: An immense vertical-oriented environment featuring thousands of individual docking berths arranged along sprawling, curved multi-tiered steel scaffolding frameworks. The total tactical complement numbers in the thousands.

Launch Mechanism: The primary hangar exit route is aligned directly above the central axis of the cavern, forcing vertical high-speed launch vectors straight up through a concealed aperture at the peak of the lunar mountain.

Sector Fleet Specifications (Foo Fighter Class):

🛠️ Technology, Mechanics & Lore

Quantum Force Holograms

As digital consciousnesses, Zazzo and Drizzla utilize the ship's subspace projectors to manifest physically. They are not mere optical illusions; they can solidify their projections to exert physical force, manipulate heavy objects, or interact natively with physical environments. They can also alter their visual matrices to become completely invisible or shape-shift into other forms. Breathing is entirely optional for their holographic projections, allowing them to move freely through deep vacuum environments without spacesuits.

The Foo Fighters

Glowing, high-speed, kinetic UFO reconnaissance and tactical orb/saucer fleets deployed by the Moon Mothership. They are piloted remotely via brainwave link—Zazzo utilizing the silver chrome interface sphere on his helmet, and Drizzla commanding them via her silver-and-amethyst mind control tiara.

Quantum Drift & Aesthetic Render

Due to age-related power fluctuations within the Moon-ship or interference from Earth’s unique atmospheric conditions, their holographic forms occasionally exhibit a distinctive stippled, watercolor-pixelated pattern along their edges, bleeding softly into the surrounding darkness.

The Green Alien Files & The Mission

A massive cultural, technical, and biological blueprint database stored safely inside L.U.N.A.T.I.C. Because they lack physical bodies, their prime directive is the subtle guidance of human evolution and technology until Earth reaches a level of technical sophistication capable of helping them repair the ship’s hyperdrive.

---

🎨 Master Visual Style Guidelines

Artistic Style: A stylized blend of vintage 1970s comic book art, posterized screen-printing, airbrushed halftones, and stippled watercolor washes.

Color & Tone: Deep cosmic contrast. High-contrast shadows, rich dark space backgrounds with stylized stars or nebulae, offsetting the bright, soft, luminescent pale-green skin tones of the protagonists (`#98FB98` to `#ADFF2F` spectrum).

Composition: Melds nostalgic, psychedelic retro-futurism with dramatic pulp sci-fi comic panels. Character edges are hand-inked but soften organically into watercolor textures.

"Rembrandt Sleeping..." Poem #30

The Adopted Interstellar Sport Of The Palien Green Federation...

aquarianm@gmail.com (Daniel A. Stafford) — Tue, 31 May 2016 14:39:00 -0700

Well, actually, we have two sports we learned from you, Earthlings. Well, that and the whole concept of "sports" to begin with. No other species in the known galaxy has thought of so many ways to play with balls or knock them about.

The first sport we picked up from you is Frisbee. The second is disc golf.

We're not sure, but we think that Earthlings playing with flying saucers may be subconsciously related to abduction experiences. I guess it depends on how deeply the inventors were probed.

There's a new one few have heard of yet called "bucket disc." We're still waiting for that one to take off.

Meanwhile, we use the other two sports as drivers' ed simulators for baby Paliens!

#ZazzoOut! \\//_

Zazzo - The Origin Story - Part One...

aquarianm@gmail.com (Daniel A. Stafford) — Sat, 10 Oct 2015 02:07:00 -0700

Hello, Earthlings! My name is Zazzo.

I and my crew arrived in Earth orbit about 65 million years ago. We got stuck here after a particularly nasty solar eruption wiped out all the artificial intelligence systems on our mothership. You know it as The Moon!

The dinosaurs very much regretted it, because it was the last thing they saw as the comet we were dodging smacked into the Yucatan and wiped them right the heck out!

Ever since, we have been working like crazy to raise the intelligence level of life on Earth. Let me tell you, it hasn't been easy! All the dinosaurs were gone, leaving only small birds. Most fish were gone. The smartest thing we could find left alive on Earth were these little rodent-like proto-primates. Let's see YOU try to genetically engineer the equivalent of a squirrel into intelligent life! Good luck with that, and you're welcome!

We've had some smaller computers and our foo fighters survive the Dinoclysm. The foo fighters are limited to travel within the solar system, however. (It would take us a little over four years to get to the nearest star system - Alpha Centauri - if they carried enough fuel to go that far!) We can cruise out into the cloud of dwarf planets and asteroids beyond Pluto, but that's about the limit.

We originally came from the Palien Green Federation in the nebula you see when looking at the constellation Orion. Our long-range communications are out. No talking to home for us. Sadly, we will not taste another Giant Palien Pistachio green brew for at least another few thousand solar years. (Yes, years are different lengths on each and every planet! Get with the time measurement police, Earthlings!)

Worse, an evil race of Reptiloid creatures have been flying in and messing with our genetic enhancement of humans every once in awhile. Where do you think George Bush, Dick Chaney, and the rest of the evil mean people get their genetic pollution from? The Reptiloids want humans to be stupid and mean - it makes it easier for them to feed their lava snarks your kibbles and bits. You don't want to know which bits, trust me.

The Reptiloids have nasty pets that evolved on hot worlds called Lava Snarks. They have rock-hard grey shells, are shaped like a wolf crossed with a dragon, and they have glowing red eyes. The snarks can see infra red (heat) light in fine detail. They have acidic venom that can be flammable in Earth's atmosphere. They have incredibly hard and sharp teeth and claws. The Reptiloids and their snarks like to live in deep tunnels under the surface of a planet. They sneak around in basements, sub-basements, caves, caverns, catacombs, and other deep, dark places. Their ships are mean-looking black triangles with red lights.

We Paliens like living on the far side of the Moon. It faces away from the Reptiloid-infested Earth, it has hangers for our foo fighters, and Palien Green food enough to last two billion years for the fifty of us Greens. (Except the GPP brew, drat it!) Plus it's ours, and it's what we came here in. Our foo fighters are silvery-metallic. You call them "flying saucers." You stole one from us after it got hungry and landed hard in Roswell, NM in the 1940's. You also stole the dead bodies of the two jokers that didn't feed their foo. We want the foo back. You can keep the little green stiffs.

Life in the Orion Nebula was pretty cool, as long as you didn't run into any Reptiloid squadrons. We had all kinds of green food. (Why do you think we're green and not gray, Earthlings?) We had green drinks and we lived on planets near green stars. We think humor is in some ways better than logic, but we like logic too. (Bend your fingers a little, Mr. Spock! \\//_ ) We can do things with our minds, too. It's kind of like the Force in Star Wars. (Who needs hands, Luke? Just *think* it!)

Our green leaders sent us out here towards Earth to see how it was holding up over the past billion years. Everythiing was still pretty primitive back then. We'd seeded Earth with green life - plants...well, algae, really - about 3.5 billion years ago, but we were a bit more primitive back then, too. We goofed and got some animal cells in the mix. Worse, they had been contaminated by a Reptiloid stealth DNA bomb. How do you think you got the "Law of the Jungle" instead of the "Garden of Eden," Earthlings? The Devil rides in a black triangle.

At any rate, we're stuck here on Earth Now. No green cheese on the Moon. Drat it!

I need to get some maragaritas and zucchini for Drizzla or she is going to crash me in Area 51 - !

Zazzo out!

Stumping Trump...

You know, when I look at Earth politics, especially the Presidential elections in the USA, I think to myself "At least the evil Reptiloids ARE green instead of chasing green."

Reptiloids are dark green, and are the dark overlords of of the Dark Geenalien Empire. They're not even funny like the Bright Green Alien Federation, or full of snarkasm like my own beloved Palien Green Federation back in the Orion Nebula.

Then I look at US politicians. None of them are green, but almost all of them are chasing green...as in greenbacks, bucks, yankee salad...cash, baby. They will eat each other faster than a Reptiloid will eat your young, Earthlings.

Well, except maybe Bernie Sanders. I think he could get a Reptiloid's pet lava snark to let it pet him, and even listen while he gave it a lecture on human-exobio relations and technology partnership treaties.

Then there is Donald Trump. He is basically orange, (probably from blood pressure & lack if heart) and already has a lot of green. I swear the guy must have 50 snarkasms a day. Trump could out-snarkasm most Pale Greens I know. Well, except maybe my beautiful Drizzla!

("Snarkasm": 1. A particularly witty sarcastic barb designed to make your political opposition look as idiotic as they obviously are. 2. Getting off on number 1.)

Then there is that whole "wall to keep the illegal aliens out" thing. What is he going to do to keep us or the Reptiloids out? Build a Stephen King dome and hire the Butterfyd Kindred to maintain it? It's not like he doesn't hire people who aren't from the US, or marry them, for that matter.

You Earthlings sure are a strange bunch. You make pale green aliens look normal!

Zazzo out!

A Little Foo Fighter Cruise Around The Planet...

Ok, it's been waaaay too long since I got up into space to see the stars without having to duck Reptiloid ships. It's like being banned from cruising in town on weekends because it's always staked out.

Drizzla and I finally got a little quality time above the atmosphere the other day. My buddy Rizzoot got a good shot of my ship, "Foo For Yo Love" in flight. She's almost as nice to look at as Drizzla, but don't tell her I said so.

Zazzo out!

Zazzo Gets A Job...

aquarianm@gmail.com (Daniel A. Stafford) — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 17:17:00 -0700

Ok, Earthlings, it's time to admit it. My Foo Fighter broke down and crashed. She's just not going to budge. I haven't seen the lovely Drizzla in months. I've been stuck wandering around in the desert here in the California part of Earth.

I've been dodging coyotes, Reptiloids, chupacabras, rattlesnakes, and tarantulas like crazy. The good news is that there's lots of Mexican restaurants here that have Green Sauce and green Ortega chiles.

I spotted this guy sitting out on his front porch late one night watching the stars. That's my favorite thing about you Earthlings, a bunch of you actually look up at the night sky and wonder. Twinkle, twinkle, is that a star or a meteor, or a foo fighter? (No, not the ones on Sonic Highways, but their music is AWESOME!)

At any rate, a coyote snuck up behind me and I had to run up on this guy's porch in order to keep a glowing chunk from being bitten out of my behind! Obviously this guy Dan saw me, as I just about ran right into him! Luckily, he's so big and tall when he's on his feet that the coyote turned tail and ran as soon as Dan stood up. Whew!

Well, anyway, unlike most Earthlings, Dan didn't freak out and start gibbering, or scream "Alien! There's an ALIEN!" Nope. This guy was very logical and Spock-like. (No pointed ears, though.) All Dan says is, "Hi. My name is Dan. Do you speak English, and are you OK?" He even gave me the Vulcan salute: \\//_

Well, there was no help for it. [ My name is Zazzo, of the Palien Green Federation of Orion's Belt ] I thought into his head. [ And yes, I think English. I'm also hungry. Have you got any salsa verde or margaritas in there? My foo fighter broke down and crashed, and I'm starving and tired of dodging evil critters! ]

Dan got a laugh out of that one. "I've got margaritas, but no salsa at the moment. How about I fix you one, and you can 'crash' on the couch and tell me your story. Sorry, bad pun. I do that. What do you say...er, think?"

Well, the rest is short-term history. This tall Earthling understood when I told him I needed to upgrade the tech on this planet so I could fix my foo fighter, and he gave me a job at his business, which happens to be technical. So now I work at Temecool Computer Repair as a sort of spokesman. In return, I get salsa verde, an occasional margarita, and bottles of green Tobasco for foo fuel. Who'd have thought it?
