A dead cow comes across the sky.

A dead cow comes across the sky.
He lands with a thump in front of his farmer who looks down at him, perplexed. He never saw the alien ship overhead as it deposited the cow and then
a down payment on the countryhouse he was selling. It was an offer he just couldn't refuse. Sure, there'd be a possible alien takeover if he sold it to 'em, but he wanted a ferrari
toy car to wash at the car wash while his parents washed their Tercel
hatchback. This was the last time they let their son play with silly string. After two runs through the car wash, the Tercel was still smeared with sticky pink and blue goop.
But their son utterly loved silly string, and even if his parents banned it, he always had ways to acquire it. He had a number of contacts on the playground who sold it for
6 quarts of mouthwash and a set of distillation equipment. Pricey, but worth it. Thee son also learned to improvise, a solution of materials such as whipped cream made silly str
ongmen. They had a hard time keeping up with the son's brazen wit, but were very good at lifting up big, heavy things, and putting them elsewhere, just like the Israelites in
The ancient era. Matzos were served, accordingly. Things were really beginning to fall apart. The general insisted a bailout was necessary or we are all doomed. Who to believe now?
In the end, help did come from an anonymous benefactor. Like the general many feared it would be the end, yet it marked the beginning of something new. The start of a new era.
