Guide Me Orion

This afternoon, I was just randomly browsing the Interweb, looking at the lyrics for Flaming Youth's "Guide Me Orion", when I received a mysterious message.


The message told me to head to Grand Beach with a trunkload full of All Dressed and Ketchup flavoured potato chips. Weird request, but nothing totally weird, like asking me to fill my car's trunk with poutine and rubber ducks.


Anyway.


I arrived at Grand Beach to find that there was still a good amount of snow and water on the beach. I borrowed a sled from a friend in order to drag all of the bags of chips onto the beach and waited. And waited.


To be honest, I didn't know what I was supposed to expect.


After waiting on the cold and windy beach for an hour and a half, I saw a twinkling light in the sky that became a spaceship, heading my way.


As it landed, three aliens stumbled out of the spaceship's rear hatch with a white mist billowing out of it. They kinda looked stoned. I think.


They saw the sled full of chips, quickly pulled it inside the ship, and mumbled what I guessed was, "Thanks," and stumbled back in.


The ship took off and headed back towards the Orion Constellation.


Yup. Definitely an interesting Saturday night.
