The Other Coast by Adrian Raeside for September 05, 2018

My dog would be overjoyed if all fireworks were sent to Mars. They could be used as propellants for liftoff.

Hey, can you imagine how much lifting power there is in the sum total of all the roman candles that go off in your country every 4th of July??

When they go to Mars they’ll send Rover along for sure.

Not to forget the mailmen!

They should also take the evil vacuum cleaners.

And someone needs to do something about thunder!

Some are willing to flea earth in makeshift rockets.

Remember this the next time you get heart-worm or parvo.

I’m sure our pets will eventually go with us. Probably sooner than later.

Fireworks are gradually becoming obsolete. The new thing now is hundreds of small, illuminated drones controlled by computer. They were featured at the last winter Olympics in Seoul.

And, cats would make good Martian pets.
