TIME *IF

The Adventures of Mick McTime

This is a silly story I tried to write a few years ago. I just need to go back, in time, and condense the text more; however, the illos were fun.

Mick is boy who uses his fantastic, time-saving time machine in battle between goodies and evil. In other words, it's taking too long for mom's cookies to get done baking. He's convinced that his machine works because, instantly, there is mom with a plate of hot cookies and milk. Next during Mick's imaginary play, he decides to speed up dad's work day and is further convinced when dad suddenly walks through the front door. He's a genius! Although, unfortunate for us all, something happens to poor Mick's, most, incredible invention of all time.

And therefore I have run out of time and must bid you farewell until next time.
