The Buckets by Greg Cravens for June 25, 2022

Does space debris count?

At the speed a meteor travels, first one to “catch” one, loses.

That’s a lot of patience in a group that young. I’m guessing they’ll give up before one of them becomes a patient.

You might want an oven mitt in your glove, too after seeing what happened to the dinosaurs.

Well at least in this game we have plenty of time to go get snacks and not miss a thing.

First one to catch a meteor is going to the hospital!

not to worry. Everyone will get dizzy after a bit, fall down, laugh and go start another game.

None of them will catch a meteor; meteors keep going. When they enter Earth’s atmosphere, they become “meteorites”.

Just in case you want to wear a hard hat, so they know where to locate the body.

Put a rock in there and say the rest burned off on entry to the atmosphere.

Catch it. Put it in your pocket. Sing a song about it.
