Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.
Anonymous Airborne Things
The eighth week came. Thus the subject changed to UFOs. Of course, it was what went on before the broadcast that was worth being present for.
Rick was playing solitaire in the kitchen. Why was anyone's guess! However, it was Ken's question to him that brought about the conversation worth being present for.
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be giving a lecture on the Yeti being descended from the Neanderthal?"
"Ken, he's your dad. Be nice." Said Heidi, shocked that Ken was suddenly acting in such a way.
"I want to be here so I can hear you do your broadcast!" Stated Rick. "I thought if you'd allow it, I could give talk about my own adventures involving aliens."
"No! I don't want that!" exclaimed Ken. "And do you know why?"
"Do I want to be present for this?" asked Heidi.
"You're not a stranger, Heidi, stay." Replied Rick. "Go on, Ken."
"I want to try and get out of your shadow. I love you as a son should his father but you are a legend as a soldier, an archaeologist and what not and I don't want to be compared to you."
"Ken, you put an end to the curse on our family. You slew the Death Raptor you killed a god. You did what I was unable to do even when I was young and could see. You aren't in my shadow, you never were and there is no reason to be afraid you are going to be compared to me."
"Oh…" Ken placed a hand on the back of his neck and looked to the side. "So, do you want to talk about the time you discovered ketchup is for Venusians what Kryptonite is for Superman?"
Rick shrugged and gave a smile. "Sure, why not?"
