Looking back, I realized my decision was too hasty. Too many celebrities, not enough ships. Childhood promises rushed back- I should have been on that ship, to the moon base the 80’s envisioned.

The title reference is to Heinz 57 of course, but this is not my entry for the Ketchup With Us writing contest, which you should also write for.

Not only do I like your Trifextra entry but I also thank you for the Ketchup props. We love Trifecta and would be honored if some of the cool kids came to our party, too.
My mom just made pizza rolls and the dance contest starts in an hour. Come on!

Always too many celebrities, aren’t there! I liked this a lot, just as I usually like a lot of ketchup!
On burgers, fries, eggs…or on it’s own?
Hey it does come in glass bottles, like a classic coca-cola!
We all have our regrets. Some dreams never happen if you don’t go for them early. annbennett2.blogspot.com
Andy Kaufman would have been proud. Virgin Galactic is selling tickets now, I think.
Yeah, and everyone should do the Ketchup thing with Mel and Michele. Oops, haven’t done mine yet!
yes, they should do it!
I had to “look back”. Now I get it – nice tie in.
Thanks! Yes shameless self-promotion helps visitors get around easier. Might be a gem or two missed
If you have a few billion lying around, you can still make the trip to SpaceLab or now, to Mars.
Hmm, well I have some coins to cash in…!
There I was trying to be clever, and here you are, succeeding at being brilliant!
Thank you very much Mr G.
What is it about space that attracts childhood dreams? (:
Science promised me!!!
Thanks for coming by to commiserate with me !
and where is my flying car, durnitall?????
Are you going somewhere that doesn’t need…roads?
Me too. I am pissed and where is my flying car? Where is my hover board? Where is my robot slave?
Marty McFly has the first two
Wow … this is like a dream
getting rid of celebrities or a moon base? or both ?
thanks for coming by!
“Too many celebrities, not enough ships” is a great line. You are absolutely right about it, too! Fantastic story. Hadn’t read the Virgin Galactic story until today…….pure genius on your part!
Thanks!! – shameless self-promotion lets people look around easier
I “looked back” too! Brilliant! There’s a lot I miss about the 80′s and so much I don’t. Big stuff back then.
Big hair, mainly! Thanks – whether it was good or bad back then, we had a great soundtrack to it!
