IN THE DRINKS AISLE

There was a tiny, tiny little man trapped inside of a bottle of water.  To say I was surprised would be an understatement.  Strangely enough, he seemed to be dressed in some sort of a spacesuit.  I looked around nervously not sure what to expect; a reality show or a truck from the funny farm.  The little spaceman slowly bobbed up and down in the liquid, one dead hand -he was clearly dead- still pressed up against the ridged side of the bottle.  I peered closely and saw his face was decorated with the worlds tiniest muttonchop sideburns and a pair of miniature green-tinted sunglasses, and a tiny peace symbol on a little string floated up by the crest of his helmet.  Should I buy the bottle?  Take the oddity on TV and get famous, or to sell it on the internet for a fortune?  Bring it to the government to explain how a hipster from the 70's ended up in a bottle of generic water in a convenience store?  So anyways, that's why I bought a ginger ale.
