A recent report on the Alpha Centauri system news network listed the Galaxy Machine as one of the music groups to watch this year. A new distribution deal got us on the charts there, but the exchange rate is really confusing since they don’t use money at all, and we can’t use our intergalactic credits on earth because the monetary system here is basically way too lame to deal with off-world business.

It’s too bad, because there are alien enterprises just waiting for the planet to get on board so they can sell us weird trinkets from exotic planets all over the universe. The earthling business people and the bankers have no idea how much potential profit is being lost due to our backwards planetary economic system.

And there are some things I’d like to obtain from intergalactic traders.

I am especially fond of those crazy zyfoids from that odd planet in the Andromeda Galaxy. (Can’t spell the name of that heavenly body here because it would take at least 200 Gigs just to type all the letters. Last time it took me several years!)

Man are those zyfoids cool! You can use them to impress friends or just build a new skyscraper overnight. I hear they also work well for interstellar counseling on diplomatic and biological issues once you learn their language. No earth being should be without one!
