Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net  a"When You Giffle..." by L. J. Stecher, Jr. is a science fiction short story published in the early 1960s. The narrative revolves around space travel and the whimsical adventures that can arise when cosmic oddities intersect with human experiences. It explores themes of innocence, the peculiarities of childhood, and the unexpected consequences of scientific miscalculations.  The story features Captain Hannah, who recounts an unusual encounter with two extraterrestrial boys, Mike and Aloysius, while stranded in their whimsical "swimming hole" in space. After inadvertently disrupting their landscape, the boys enlist the help of their older brother, Jim, to assist Captain Hannah in finding his way home. Utilizing their unique psionic abilities, Jim and his brothers inadvertently complicate matters by shrinking the captain while attempting to help. Ultimately, Captain Hannah successfully delivers a whale to the Prinkip of Penguin II, though he grapples with the implications of his whimsical adventures and the strange powers of the Monahan children, leaving him in a thoughtful position about his future interactions with this extraordinary family. The story concludes on an ambiguous note, emphasizing curiosity and caution regarding newfound powers and the unknown.
