Aside from that: I


Aside from that: I

Judas, the bag of chips, watched as Saturn passed by them.  He sighed.  “So where are we supposed to meet these people?” He asked.

Liz looked at the navigation computer.  “Just a little further,” Liz said.  “The guy said that there would be a beacon that we’re supposed to find.  The ship will come soon after we arrive.”

“You know, I’ve been thinking about this,” Judas, the bag of chips, said.  “It just seems a little too convenient, you know.  I mean, we’ve got a huge pile of gold, and all we need to do is use this sweet space ship car, fill the trunk with as much sugar as we can, and bring it into space.  I mean, how come sugar is worth a pile of gold?”

“Yeah,” Liz admitted.  “It does seem easy, almost too easy.  But what an adventure, huh?  I mean, no one in my family has left New Jersey in decades, and here I am on my way to the edge of the solar system in a space car.  This is awesome!  How could I have turned it down?”

Judas, the bag of chips, nodded.  She was right.  He sat back and enjoyed the ride.
