Scary Solar Surfing
Things were busy at the Benbow Inn and B.E.N. wasn't helping much! The clumsy robot had already spilled purp juice on a whole family of Cyclopes, broken a whole set of Mrs. Hawkins's Alponian chowder bowls, and was now chasing a healthy serving of Zirellian jellyworms across the dining room floor. 'Don't you worry, Mrs. H.," B.E.N. assured the innkeeper. "Tell those spacers their lunch will be on the table in just one minute . . . whoops! Better make that two minutes." "Jim!"
