checking in to ground control
attention earthlings:

thank you for your participation in the project known as 'mission earth'.

your co-operation has been duly noted and recorded for posterity in your transcript. although, we have fallen short of the ultimate goal of harmonious existence, we did acquire some success in certain minor objectives.

due to lack of funds and non-compliance of certain high-ranking officials this mission will be aborted at 2300 hour. your presence will no longer be required.

the mars project has been canceled due to an underwhelming lack of interest. apathy was noted and reported as requested and in compliance with policy c-42 and accordingly has been prioritized as non-urgent. therefore: do not report to mars. i repeat: DO NOT REPORT TO MARS!!

protein pills are still available at the commissary and suggested daily allowance remains at 1500 mg. to be ingested at 0600.

please standby for further instructions.

signed and sealed
commander, wheel in the sky
