YOU SHOULD KNOW A FEW THINGS ABOUT PLANET HALF.<\/h4>\n

First, you should know that\u00a0Planet Half is ruled by Queen Halfness. Queen Halfness is very curious about the other planets in the universe, especially Earth. The queen has never visited Earth, though, because, well, she\u2019s kind of a little bit lazy. But, Queen Halfness dispatches other aliens to travel across the galaxy and all the way to Earth in order to bring things back for her.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t

BUT THERE IS ALWAYS A PROBLEM\u2026<\/h3>\n

Both of the aliens want to impress the queen. They both want to be the one to bring back whatever they find. So they argue and argue.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will bring back these objects!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo me!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo me!\u201d<\/p>\n

In the end, they always make sure that each alien brings back to the queen the exact same thing and the exact same amount.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t <\/div>\n\t \t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\n\t \n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\n\t
