Aye aye

I made up a lot of cosmic comic nonsense about "World Windows" and "The Cosmic Shelf"  for a daft laugh in 2014 and it turned out to be very useful.

  1. Serene Wanderer haunts my dreams.

    1. It turned out that she was right, back when she said that Eustace would be okay. He came back as a horse-thing!

    2. I just realized that Serene Wanderer and Shelley Winters have the same initials. Coincidence? Or… something more?

  2. Stretching them gams well out of shape. :^P

    1. They are well and truly Nemulong.

  3. Anyone else getting Sterenko vibes from this sequence?

  4. The routes through time that SEW and Nemulon take are made from… CMYK process colour?

    1. Indeed. Shades (ha) of Peter Cannon:Thunderbolt here?

  5. That’s a quality launch. You can tell Shelley’s been practicing!

    1. Yes, a definite improvement. Nobody had to push her this time.

      Give her a few more missions, and she’ll be able to do it without even screaming.

  6. What you up to, John? Messing about, having a daft laugh, telling jokes and that?

  7. BRAUN uses open reel magnetic tape? It’s like they’re already back in the 60’s.

    1. Heh. I was thinking that, too.

    2. Surprisingly, magnetic tape is still a robust way to back up digital data.

      “With its high capacity and longevity, tapes are perfect for long-term retention of large files. […] Most businesses prefer to use tape over cloud to keep their data offsite for compliance purposes.”

  8. That looks painful!!!

  9. This seems to be one of those ways of traveling that you never really get used to, no matter how often you do it…

  10. With those horns Shelly might be mistaken for a Martian. (“5 Million Years to Earth”)

  11. Time travel as defenestration…
