        "Your's will be mine soon"

     Al Bundy faced the problem of finding out who's land was who's

when his neighbor and him got into an argument over an apple tree.  He

called in a surveyor and they found out the tree belonged to Marcy, his

neighbor, and Al became jealous.  Al and his family then electricuted Marcy.

Marcy retaliated when she found out that she owned Al's driveway.  After

that, Al was forced to pay a 5,000 dollar fee to drive in his driveway.  Just as

desolation arose from the greed for land between Marcy and Al, the same has

happened with man throughout history.  In the book, The Martian

Chronicles, this theme is portrayed with a passion.  Man's lust with

imperialism leads to destruction.

men land, they meet a martian with a gun and so ends the first expedition.

Next, another group is sent to try to gain land on Mars.  These men land and

go knocking from one door to the next saying that they were from Earth.

Each martian tells them to go to another person.  Finally, the men come to a

house where a man gives them a key and says they "will be taken care of" in

the next room.  They enter only to find that they are locked within an insane

asylum.  They are taken next to the ship and then killed.  In the third

expedition, the group lands and at first think they are on Earth but traveled

back in time to the year 1920.  The captain and one of his men tell his men to

stay on ship while they go and survey the land.  However, when they came

back they saw their men talking and associating with many of their

dead family members.  Each of the crew men go to the house with their

family members.  At the end of the night, the captain finally realizes what

was going on.  The Martians were giving them illusions of their families but

it was too late...the entire crew was dead.  Last comes the fourth expedition

to Mars where they land near a Martian ruin.  One of the men searches
