The Adventures of Adam Atom – Planet X!
Buckle up your Buckeyballs and get a grip on your sub-atomic energy spins, gang. It’s time for another atomically smashing episode in the continuing solar saga of our swashbuckling hero-
Adam Atom!
Shhh – keep it down, guys. I gotta whisper. I’m drifting about in the air in the command central office of the diabolical serpent god, Anu, here on planet Nibiru. It’s been 3,597 years since Planet X has swung through our solar system and it’s due back in 2012. So Anu and his cronies are, as usual, planning some up-to-no-goodness for us and lots of goodness for them. Ever wonder why we have to dig for gold on our planet? That’s cuz he and his kind had almost all the surface gold on earth taken away to their planet to fuel their failing atmosphere’s purifying generators. The ancient S
umerians wrote all about it in their sacred scrolls and hieroglyphs, the story (now considered by “learned” scholars to be pure myth) of how they genetically engineered our species to do the hard labor for them. Lazy jerks. Ooops, quiet – Anu is getting ready to address his high Priest of Interplanetary Gouging (PIG) … I’ll translate the Nibling for you.
“Acktict etchk (cluck) fisiiiii (click) Encktat?”
(Anu asked his high PIG if he had the latest reports from Earth – whether or not the Earthlings were still in a state of disbelief in the existence of a missing “Planet X” in their solar system – did they still dismiss the ancient writings of the Sumerian civilization as mere mumbo jumbo of no importance and relevance to the modern era and, further, were they – the Earthlings, as yet unconvinced that the Mayan culture had any brains at all and that their calendar which predicts the end of the exisitng world cycle in the same year as the one in which Nibiru returns to close proximity is nothing more than silly unfounded gibberish to be poo-poohed by anyone with a present day education? These conditions, he said again, would be his preference, giving the Niblings the element of surprise upon their return. He also reminded him that he had given him one simple order to carry out, to be well informed for this meeting and have a full report ready. Was he?)
The PIG shifts on his feet, looking a bit nervous, and says, “Iiii (click) espgrlbed (pop) (pop) insctch ubdubct (cluck) Enctact fpstgliiign lkjh ishtctlnooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee – (pop) disctsh id fuble – efchkgrble eenstcklak (pop pop pop) yt yots endstachk … ng.”
(He said “no”)
Yikes! Anu is swelling in stature – already ten feet tall, now he’s the height of the room, mebbe twenty feet of more. He’s boiling crimson red, glaring at his insubordinate PIG. He’s focusing his mental energy into a singular thought. I can feel the very sub-atomic fabric of the area coalescing into one uniform energy-
Zap!
Wowza! The high PIG is gone. Nothing but a smoldering puddle of plasma bubbling and evaporating on the floor. And that was a close call for ol’ Adam, too. I nearly got caught up in that zap-thought.
Look. I’m gonna stick around here for a while. Call me brave. That or a dang fool, but I’ve got to get the lowdown on what Anu has in mind. What’s that? I hear a rumbling outside, approaching the door. Marching sounds. Anu has apparently telepathically summoned a whole troupe of replacements for his inept and slaughtered PIG.
Tune in next week, guys – I’m gonna bond with a wall marble molecule and hang around for what’s gonna happen next. I’ll be here with all the news from Planet X next Monday. Wish me luck. Another thought energy of that intensity and I might get split. Then it’s, well – you know …
BANG!

Sounds like ol planet X wants to really ‘pig’ out on poor unintellectual planet earth. It’s a good thing Adam can interpret their language or we’d be caught by surprise.
Good job
So maybe StarGate had the story right after all?

I knew Adam could do it all. He even speaks pig. Gotta love someone who can speak pig.

Hmm, yeah – like Cactus said, mebbe that’s where “pig latin” came from? lol
Is that where “Pig Latin” came from? lol – another great Adam Atom post, Marv – love this series!
Methinks maybe we should be paying more attention to those old Sumerian and Mayan documents, eh? Great episode!
Yay for Adam Atom! Another great post Marvin Atom, oops, I mean Marvin.
*smile*
Quirky – hey – I resemble that remark!
Does Adam use wormholes to get from point A to point B in order to save the galaxy? Gotta have wormholes. I mean, what’s a galactic adventure without wormholes? Great stuff, as always.
Oh yeah – and you’ll notice I have “worms” in the post tags, Stephen.
Yikes! Where’s a 1950s bomb shelter when you need one?
Not to pick on small points, Marv, but are you *certain* about your translation of…
“Iiii (click) espgrlbed (pop) (pop) insctch ubdubct (cluck) Enctact fpstgliiign lkjh ishtctlnooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee – (pop) disctsh id fuble – efchkgrble eenstcklak (pop pop pop) yt yots endstachk … ng.”?
I read that as more than, “No.” I’m seeing some explicative deleted stuff in there, as well as commentary on Anu’s ancestory. Just sayin’…

Galen, well I’d have to defer to Adam on that one. I don’t speak Pig Nibling myself. I didn’t know interplanetary linguistics was among your many talents! LOL
Oh, yeah, I’m as interplanetary (spacey) as they get!
Very interesting. Hum, I wonder if the bills in congress this year have been written in Pig – could explain why our illustrious leaders don’t read them – squealers, the lot of them.
Keep it comin’.
Lynn – LMBO! Yeah, you got THAT right!
Hooray for Adam Atom – good thing he’s looking out for us so we can foil ole PIG’s plans!
Nancy, from Realms of Thought…
I’m not sure if I want to hang around with this Adam guy. Things go boom, zap, or pop. Scary!
Nice job, Marvin.
Thanks, Reforming One. And yeah – if ya can’t take the heat, best stay out of the kitchen! lol
I’m a little worried about 2012 now so I’m counting on Adam Atom to find a way to keep us safe when Planet X makes its next appearance!
You just won the Humane Award, Marvin!
