A Whole New World

One morning I found myself in a whole new world, aliens all around with three eyes and four feet, and two hands.  It was really strange.  After trying to find out were I was, I finally figured out that I was on planet Zerubbabel.

After I knew where I was, I decided to look around town.  Their customs were really weird; they didn't have electricity, or running water.  This particular day was Zerubbabel day where all day they worshiped their god Zerubbabel.  They wanted me to worship him too.  So after I refused they tied me up with ropes and carried me over to a burning altar.  I thought this was the end.  But then I remembered that they didn't have electricity and probably didn't have a clue what it was.  So I tried to tell them that I was a magician and that if they burned me they would all die.  They put me down quickly in fear, and I quickly gathered some things to make a light bulb, and a circuit.  I put the things together and, ta-da! we had electricity.  They were amazed at what I had done, and quickly made me king.     

The very first thing I did as king was to take away their god Zerubbabel and make the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob the God of Planet Zerubbabel. (I told them they could keep the name of their planet.)  Then I put electricity and running water in every home and building on the planet.

And all of a sudden a loud noise woke me up and I realized it had all been a dream.  I was really disappointed, but at least I was back on Planet Earth.
