Time Travel

[Devinco]

(Still unconscious dreaming)

Good night Ronjor.

[Devinco]

(Still unconscious dreaming)

Even my dreams look cool with this time warp effect! 8)

[Uguel707]

Now,Science Officers bigc and Ronjor how long do you think it will take before we get reconstituted?

Doctor Iceni60, do you think we might have any after-effects?:o

And Devinco, let us know when you'll start smelling the primordial breeze :D

[iceni60]

yep, im checking in to my bunk too, it may take awhile with my distorted vision, i hope i dont end up in the wrong bunk :o :o :o :o if that does happen, i can assure you, it's not intensional.

and Uguel you are the greatest...

[iceni60]

-{ Quote: "Doctor Iceni60, do you think we might have any after-effects?:o
" }-
just checked that one out for you, and the result, useing my spacesuit is 98.97% chance of no lasting effects after 24 hours. and 100% after 48 hours.

so the definative answer is no, Captian.

thats a big N... O... Captian, Uguel

thank you, and good night. over-and-out ;D 8)

[Uguel707]

Good night to those who are retiring to their quarters! :)

[Devinco]

(Still unconscious dreaming)

Good night Captain Uguel!! ;)

[Uguel707]

Good night Devinco! :)

[Fire-Ant]

semper in faecibus summus.... ::)

I managed to repair the toilet,
Someone did flush some rubber down the drain.. ;)

[Marja]

(Oh I just don't know how to explain this to the Capitain???
I only opened the door to see if any crew members were out there and I heard someone whispering about some kind of locator!! Oh What to do!
Don't know where they went after they knocked me out, should I tell Security first,GULP!
How could this happen to the Boss of the Pssst!*
My people will just have to get with some other people who will tell Capitain's people that there might be a strange(stranger than us) creature aboard,better buck up!)
HEY!! YOU!! GET BACK HERE!! WHY I OUGHTA...............CLUNK! THUD!!
GROOOOOOAN,NOT AGAIN..........................>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

[Marja]

*Professional ShapeShifter Shrink Team,Inc = Pssst!
Creature slinks around holding what looks like a temporal locator, clunking a few crew members who are still awake, eating a live fish or two, mumbling, always mumbling......

[Fire-Ant]

:o :o :o :o :o :o :o

[Fire-Ant]

battle stations !

[Peaches4U]

are we on a collision course?

[Devinco]

(semi-conscious Chief Biology Officer Devinco begins waking up)
Who?....What?....WHEN?

(sniffing the air and noticing the air has cleared, smiles)
Finally, SOMEBODY turned on the venitilators! ;D

[Devinco]

(noticing the flashing red alert lights and the unconscious body of Marja, Devinco springs to his feet)
INTRUDER ALERT!!!

[Devinco]

It appears that when Marja opened the door to look outside in the void between times, she inadvertently allowed a creature that lives there inside the ship! :o

What the creature's motives are is unknown.

[Devinco]

Security teams! We have an intruder on board.

[Devinco]

Science department,

Are you able to detect any trace temporal disturbances on board?

[bigc73542]

Set the stunners to shoot anything that doesn't have a locator bracelet on then throw it back into the void

[Devinco]

bigc,

The creature has the ability to appear and disappear at will. It seems to be looking for something. As soon as I get close to grab it, it presses a button on a device it is holding and disappears!

[bigc73542]

The new stunners can detect motion and will stun that little bugger if you set it on auto detect. Our locator bracelets will protect us from being stunned. ;) if that doesn't work launch a magnetic pulse and it will short out it's electronics then throw it out

[ronjor]

Peaches4u still has a hand in a cast and requests hugger duty only.
Someone will have to cover for her for a couple of eons during time travel.

[bigc73542]

Hopefully we will have a little quiet time and peaches4u can do a little recuperating. And we can take turns filling in.

[Devinco]

Peaches,

((((((BIIIIIIG HUUUUUGZZZZZ))))))

[Devinco]

Ronjor ... BigC,

I think I see something lurking in the shadows.

(setting stunner on auto detect)
ZAP------ZZAAPP-----ZZZAAAPPP

The creature has some kind of energy shield!
The stun beams just bounced off and ruptured a plasma conduit. Plasma is leaking into the lunch room. It must be contained before we lose too much energy! Or even worse, ruin our food supply!

We need the magnetic pulse to disable the creature's electronic shielding and temporal locator. Then maybe we can grab it, interrogate it, and toss it back out the door into the void.

[ronjor]

Devinco,

Report to sick bay. I think you are still hallucinating from the foul air incident yesterday.
We have yet to decide what antidote to give you. We will put you on oxygen therapy for the time being.

[bigc73542]

I will activate the magnetic pulse in thirty seconds, grab that slippery bugger as soon as the pulse stops. And we will see what we have on board without a ticket.

[Devinco]

Ronjor,

Captain said it, the cure is the primordial breeze from the past. No smog, just pure clean air.

[ronjor]

I am deeply concerned about our crew at this point.

[bigc73542]

But we have to be careful when we get back before the dinosaurs because the air will be poison due to the numerous volcanos. But we did bring refillable mini air tanks that give us an hour and fifteen minutes so we can do a little exploring.

[Devinco]

Ready Big C!

(A strange blue wave passes through the interior of the ship as Big C activates the magnetic pulse. The creature's electronic device sparks, shorting out, its lights fade out)

Come here you little weasel!

(the Creature, now defenseless, is quite timid and tries to hide. Devinco grabs the cowering figure and brings it into the light.)
You're Bill Gates !?!?!? What are you doing here??

Ronjor ... Big C,

Should we interrogate him?

[ronjor]

-{ Quote: "Should we interrogate him?" }-

Where is security?

[bigc73542]

Lets reboot him. I think the creature is a shape shifter and is seeing bill gates picture in your mind and taking his shape lets put him in the decontamination chamber and take a vote to see what to do with it.

[Devinco]

It must have been Bill Gates who broke the toilet......trying to install SP2! :D

[Devinco]

-{ Quote: "seeing bill gates picture in your mind" }-
Now that's a terrifying thought. ;D

[bigc73542]

We need the whole crew to take a look at the creature one at a time and see if it will take on different shapes from their minds. At least he is secure in the decom. chamber.

[Devinco]

Can we PLEASE torture the Bill Gates Creature just a little bit before we throw it back into the void? PLEEAASSEEE? ;D

[bigc73542]

I have to go to the little boys room, I can't see what is going on from in there. ;D ;)

[Devinco]

Okay, but watch out for SP2!

[Devinco]

(the Bill Gates Creature safely trapped in the decompression chamber is now enraged in its captivity bouncing off the walls making horrible squealing screeching noises. In between the squealing, you can make out some words like... "You must install SP2!! It will protect you....muahaahahahaw.")

I say we eject it back into the void. But I guess the Captain will have to make the final decision.

[bigc73542]

Since the captain is injured I vote that we dump the little bugger back into the time vortex and be on our way.

[Peaches4U]

no dumping of injured el capatain - tender hugs coming up, disinfect wounds, wave magic wand plenty of rest under watchful medical eye. captain healing quickly ......she is up on her feet and ready to take control.

[bigc73542]

Not dumping the captain, but the creature in decontamination. ;) never dump beloved captain :o

[Devinco]

Only big warm hugs for Captain. :)

Could somebody tell me what happened? Is she going to be okay?

[bigc73542]

previous injuries before the launch of the time ship. still on the mend. ;)

[Peaches4U]

storm cloud, lightening - place the creature in position for zapping.
http://img25.exs.cx/img25/2833/thunderstorm.gif

[Devinco]

Calling Doctor Iceni60!

Captain needs immediate medical attention. We must save the Captain! ;D

[Peaches4U]

captain has been treated and taking control of ship- are u all ready?

[bigc73542]

You got it the creature is in position to be zapped. Go for it.

[Devinco]

I like the lightning Peaches.
More voltage to the Bill Gates Creature!

By the way Peaches, what do you see when you look at the creature?

How about you BigC?

[bigc73542]

George bush >:(

[Peaches4U]

http://img27.exs.cx/img27/9828/Idontknowsmilie.gif

[Devinco]

Fellow Time Travel crew members,

I am heading for my quarters. Good night.

Peaches, wish you speedy recovery and big hug.

BigC, please maintain the shielding around the decompression chamber so the creature doesn't get out. There's no telling what trouble it could cause if it escapes.

Fire-Ant, plasma from the busted plasma conduit is spreading into the supply of peanut butter. Could you please repair the leak? Unless everybody doesn't mind Peanut Butter and Plasma Sandwiches?

Captain, Hope you get well soon!
Things just seem to go horribly wrong when you are away. ;)

[Marja]

Aaargh!! My poor aching head! Why is it I am always the only one awake when these things go down?
I see from reading the captain's log (written by Devinco in her absence) that everyone sees something different when they look at the creature!
Since I and my crew are shapeshifters we will get to the bottom of this!!
Shorty, get over here and tell me what you see?

[Marja]

What!!! I am thinking Big C would not have put Marilyn Monroe in the Decompression Chamber, by herself anyway!!
You must have been half asleep, get me someone more awake!
Lilith, quit reading Clinton's book and tell me what you see!!
If this doesn't work I will have to go into the creature's mind and see himself as he sees himself (???)

[Marja]

OMG!!! I can see this will have to come down to me and the creature, a mind-meld, ICK!!! UEEWWW! This is disgusting - what is some of this stuff?? It seems so shallow here, not like a good brain at all!!WhaaaaT! That can't be the real creature, ahh! here is a likely line to his story - What a meglomaniac!!!

[Marja]

This sounds like I am getting somewhere! But, HOW did he get like this? It all looks so innocent, if ego-istic??? Didn't he have any friends?? There is a line - I'll travel down thataway for a while! Looks like he had some friends......Where did they go? What made him go down this path to creaturehood?

[Marja]

I can't seem to get it all, something about the sun and an apple, it gets all jumbled up around them, he seems to have got in touch with a power that will give him unlimited POWERS! Yes, he made a deal with some people who will let him stay as long as he goes along with World Domination, in fact, they MADE him one of THEM!!!! OOOOh the HORROR!!!!

[Marja]

We must warn everyone to stay away from this creature!!!! He is very sneaky, he can read your mind and show you what you want!!! I only hope I did not go tooo far in to his mind..... who knows what I want? Even I don't know what I want!! I certainly don't want this guy to know what I want? What if I wanted something that I should't want?What if I want LongHorn? LongLorn? What if I am wanted? Would wanting.....................

(Lilith, let's put Marja to sleep, she's been Gatus'd, don't know how long this might last, she will have some horrible dreams, but, she will eat some heuvos ranceros in the morning and feel just fine, seem it before I have, hope someone can cook it!)

(Yep, here come the bad dreams, Shorty! I'll grab this end you grab that end, THE END, dummy, I'm gonna tell if you grab that again! She is having enuff nightmares!!)

[Marja]

This here's Shorty, Ah hope some one can cook heuvos rancheros bett'rn ah kin spel 't!
With tor-till-as and suchlike. Lilth and the rest of the crew's standin' guard over the ship til the Secur'ty guys come, they been purty laxadaisy as fer as Ahm concern'd,why if'n it wa'nt fer me 'n the crew, that gatus guy'd hav thiir mindz like THAT!!
Sign'n off fer now.
Shorty

[Marja]

THIS LOOKS LIKE A JOB FOR BEETLEJUICE!!!

the Captain is making an extraordinarily fast recovery, and will be back to her normal self in next to no time. :D

and i dont see any creature. all i see is a big chocolate cake and cookie mix, MMMMMMMMMMMM. that looks good. maybe i'll go in and have some after i've checked the crew over.

well, it seems we're all running a slight temperature, appropriate medicine has been given, and with abit/alot of luck things should be back to normal alittle later, like the rest of you i think it seems things go abit odd when the captain isnt about :o

[Fire-Ant]

I'll have a look

[Fire-Ant]

:lurking: :lurking:

[bigc73542]

Well my assistant is going to have to take over as science officer, I am taking one of the escape pods and going home. You guys all have fun and I will see you if and when you get back. I will be at wilders in the science lab.


bigc73542
science officer
time ship ???

[ronjor]

This is highly irregular. Is there a problem? :D

[bigc73542]

Not at all I just figgured that I would let this mission be run by a new crew so on the next one we will have two experienced crews. I will run support from wilders time central.

[ronjor]

The Capt will be very unhappy. I think you should reconsider. I think the new crew idea is well and good but, your knowledge will still be needed.

At any rate, I await the Capt and her advice.

[iceni60]

MEDICAL REPORT:


It seems that i made a big mistake regarding the shots we took ::) . i hope you will forgive me. with my being so excited about the time-travelling, i made an almost unforgivable mistake with the medicine we all took. the medicine is a trial drug which is still in the Beta stages. it turns out the shots had undesirable side-effects, which have brought about our strange happenings.

the events of the past few days are part real, but mostly our imagined thoughts. the effects, i can assure you, have now dissipated.

Perhaps Bigc can confirm this? by explaining to us, that the time taken to time-travel in our craft shouldnt take days, but a mere few seconds.

so in future, with the Captain leading the mission, our trip should be more fun for us all, and we'll learn about the history of our beauitful planet when we arrive at our destinations.

i hope most of all that Bigc can find it in himself to forgive me, as it seems he, out of all of us was having the least fun.

[bigc73542]

Nothing to forgive, mistakes can occure in the excitement of the moment. You are right about almost instantanious time travel even though we are not really moving at all. I have had the crystal power supply filtered down to 12% so we would travel very slowly to make sure all the equiptment was working as planned. Well it seems to be operating as expected except for a brief adventure with the toilet. My decision to return to wilders time central still stands. So far you all have proven that you can function as a team in adverse conditions. If for some reason My physcial presence is required I can use the escape pod to meet with the time ship, they both have a locator chip that will allow for relative ease in finding each other. Keep up the good work and relay my message to the captain and I will be in touch.

bigc
science officer.

P.S. the crystal is reset to 100% so watch the time speed and don't over shoot your desired target.

[iceni60]

ok, bigc. it seems you've made up your mind. i think i speak for all of us when i say im very sad you are going home to wilders :'( and while you are away it wont be the same.

just promise us this-

1, you will join us, at least once, even if it's just for an hour, if we arrive somewhere you know you'd like to visit

2, take good care of Wilders

3, have a safe trip home. no wreakless visits to any of those bars we saw in star wars.

[bigc73542]

I will take the pod and visit every once in a while so I can check the alignment of the crystals. But for now I am taking the pod and going home to a cheeseburger. Pretty good looking escape pod ;)

Science Officer Bigc, please stay on board. I don't want you to go. We have a mission here and I know we can achieve it.

We are now arriving at the beginning of the earth into a period where only vegetation abunds...

Fortunately we materialized and reached for a very different time! :)

The earth was mainly covered with lycopods. They were creeping evergreen plants that resembled moss.

What am I supposed to do about Marja being turned into a gatus creature? The only thing I could do about it might kill her. But living like that would be worse than death. I'll have to use the time warp inverter. Cross your fingers and ahh, Good Luck Marja.

[Uguel707]

About the Pangaea....


please, read this before looking at the gif below....:)

Just before the days of the dinosaurs the Earth's continents were all connected into one huge landmass called Pangaea . This huge supercontinent was surrounded by one gigantic ocean called Panthalassa.
Notice the postion of the continents of Antarctica (Far north of its current position), Australia (flipped sideways and far west of its current position) and the subcontinent of India (Hundreds of miles from Asia).
Scientists believe that the North American continent was located much farther south and east of it's position today. In fact, much of North America was in or near the tropics!! (too bad for Quebec!)::) How do scientists know this?? They have found fossils from this period of time. These fossils are of tropical plants and animals. The fossils have been found in cold regions like North Dakota and Greenland!!! :o


About 180 million years ago the supercontinent Pangea began to break up. Scientists believe that Pangea broke apart for the same reason that the plates are moving today. The movement is caused by the convection currents that roll over in the upper zone of the mantle. This movement in the mantle causes the plates to move slowly across the surface of the Earth. About 200 million years ago Pangaea broke into two new continents Laurasia and Gondwanaland. Laurasia was made of the present day continents of North America (Greenland), Europe, and Asia. Gondwanaland was made of the present day continents of Antarctica, Australia, South America. The subcontinent of India was also part of Gondwanaland. Notice that at this time India was not connected to Asia. The huge ocean of Panthalassa remained but the Atlantic Ocean was going to be born soon with the splitting of North America from the Eurasian Plate.
How do we know that South America was attached to Africa and not to North America 180 million years ago?

Scientists today can read the history of the rock record by studying the age and mineral content of the rocks in a certain area. (Can they guess my age?);D
The Triple Junction was formed because of a three-way split in the crust allowing massive lava flows. The split was caused by an upwelling of magma that broke the crust in three directions and poured out lava over hundreds of square miles of Africa and South America.
The rocks of the triple junction, which today is the west central portion of Africa and the east central portion of South America, are identical matches for age and mineral make up. In other words the rocks in these areas of the two continents were produced at the same time and in the same place. This tells us that South America and Africa were connected at one time!
Today these two continents are separated by the Atlantic Ocean which is over 2000 miles wide!


135 Million Years Ago
About 135 million years ago Laurasia was still moving, and as it moved it broke up into the continents of North America, Europe and Asia (Eurasian plate). Gondwanaland also continued to spread apart and it broke up into the continents of Africa, Antarctica, Australia, South America, and the subcontinent of India. Arabia started to separate from Africa as the Red Sea opened up.
The red arrows indicate the direction of the continental movements. Notice how far the Indian subcontinent has to move to get to its present postion connected to Asia.
The Atlantic, Indian, Arctic, and Pacific Oceans are all beginning to take shape as the continents move toward their present positions.


The plates are still moving today making the Atlantic Ocean larger and the Pacific Ocean smaller. The yellow arrows on the world map indicate the direction of plates movements today.
Notice the position of the Indian Subcontinent today. It moved hundreds of miles in 135 million years at a great speed (4 inches per year!!!) The Indian plate crashed into the Eurasian plate with such speed and force that it created the tallest mountain range on Earth, the Himalayas! What do you predict the world will look like in 100 million or 200 million years? What new mountain ranges will form? Where will new volcanoes erupt?


The Atlantic Ocean will be much larger 50 million years from now and the Pacific Ocean will be much smaller. North and South America will have moved farther west (California moving north) while Greenland will be located farther west but also farther north. The western part of Africa will rotate clockwise and crash into Europe causing great mountain building, while the far eastern region of Africa will rotate eastward toward the Arabian peninsula. Australia will move farther north into the tropics, while New Zealand will move to the south of Australia.
All of these predictions are just that, predictions. These movements of the continents may happen if the plates continue to move in the same direction and with the same speed as they are moving today. Scientists are not certain of the movement today, let alone 50 million years into the future.
What do you think the world will look like in 50 million years???

I took and re-united the gifs on that site to avoid multi-postings

That was great, Uguel!
Thank you for posting :)

Well, being ouside is quite a relief I must say.
I hope the plants in the lycopod salad are not toxic. :o
It's a pity there aren't any trees yet, for I must perform some other relief ;)

Thats why astronauts wear diapers ;D

[Fire-Ant]

BTW,

I think there's still something wrong with the onboard toilet......

[Devinco]

The Creature has escaped from the decompression chamber through the plumbing conduits!

RED ALERT!!

Then Creature must not be allowed to leave the ship. There is no telling what damage it could do to our future!

[Fire-Ant]

Be aware !

I just found out that it's capable of destructing walls. It has had access to some of the machinery. There's a big hole down here. It must be captured alive. We don't know if killing it will change the future !

[Uguel707]

No worry guys I have my ammo with me! :D

[beetlejuice]

OUCH. That looks very painful! ;)

lol! He won't bother us anymore! ;D
I just added small effects in the ani... ;)

[Devinco]

Captain Uguel to the rescue!! ;D

That'll teach the Creature!

P.S. Thanks for the info on Pangea. Very interesting. :)

[Fire-Ant]

Perhaps killing wasn't such a good option. Was it alone ?
For some reason I have the feeling that something or someone is watching us. Could it be from a higher spiritual level?
Or should we fear the Eye of the Beholder?

[Devinco]

Eye could see that happening.

[ronjor]

So could eye. :lurking:

The feeling that you are being watched is probably coming from one of the female crew members. All women have eyes in the back of their heads. So you might want to think about behaving yourselves. ;)

[ronjor]

I think the Time Machine has been abandoned. No signs of life anywhere. Hum?

Marja8) for now in this shape(Professional Shape Shifters Team,Inc)I'm used to this shape shifting stuff. :) (Most women are!!!)

[beetlejuice]

I'm sooo sorry Marja. I've been studying my book and think I've got a fix. OK. Now how did that go again?


Abracadabra----






Alakazam----






I hope you turn to yourself again------








POOF

[beetlejuice]

WOW!! It worked. Maybe I'm finally getting the hang of this magic stuff? I wonder if I'll still be able to remember how to do it at Halloween? Maybe Acadia will like me again. It's a long way off yet though, and I have enough trouble remembering what happened yesterday. Nah, why bother? ;)

[Marja]

Not so fast there Pilgrim!!
This is from that fly's mommy, they were alot bigger back then!!

[Marja]

That will teach you to use magic indiscrimeladfyab (for no good reason!!)
But, I saw you were down town trying to use it for a speeding ticket! Shame Shame, BJ!!

[Marja]

Well, at least I am ALMOST back to normal, there are a few kinks to work on, I will forgive you in the interest of the thread, we really must get on with this Time Travelling, it feels like we are standing still, sometimes!!
This ship still has an odure, whew!! How do you start this anyway???

[Fire-Ant]

Now stop fighting guys !
The creature has been able to mess up some of the wiring of the time machine. The main server has gone offline and I don't wan't to get stuck back here.

[Fire-Ant]

I admit,
there are some small minor disadvantages concerning my environmental friendly form of transportation. ;)
It works by presenting food. Just be careful with the amount of bird seed. It might trigger some unexpected features.....

[beetlejuice]

I'll believe that when pig's fly. ;D

[slammer_JvA]

Yeah... and you'll feel it in your neck as well... -ouch! ;D
Keep your eye in the sky if I were you....

[beetlejuice]

Now I know how Chicken Little felt. ;D

[slammer_JvA]

Did you shower already, BJ? :-X
yuk..pig manure

;D

[beetlejuice]

No, no shower yet. But I did have bacon for breackfast. NYUK NYUK NYUK.

-{ Quote: " What do you think the world will look like in 50 million years" }-

How about 250 million? :lurking:

The Earth is going to be a very different place 250 million years from now.

Africa is going to smash into Europe as Australia migrates north to merge with Asia. Meanwhile the Atlantic Ocean will probably widen for a spell before it reverses course and later disappears

NASA (http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2000/ast06oct_1.htm)

[Marja]

Great link, Ronjor! It points out that the Pacific will be the biggest ocean, wonder why the differences? Wishful thinking? :)

Isn't it strange how it looks like the continents will flow back into the same basic pattern? Like the saying "Everything old is new again!"

So, Capitain, there IS greenery on Earth now? What happened to the geysers, volcanoes, and all the fireworks? Is this before the dinosaurs? My history classes never spent much time in history!! LOL!! Well, REAL OLDE history! :)

I am planning on learning alot and am liking it already!!

Of course, can't forget the shenanigans of SOME of the people along for the ride, nyuk, nyuk, my *&%^!! Don't think I will be going off with Fire Ant either, his choice of transportation is well, scary!!:o

Think I will have to go off on my own, unless someone wants to come with, I AM STARVING, everyone knows in my cat form, I need meat!!

Tripping off

In the old days, explorers didn't bring animals along just for transportation.
Ever thought about Pig Roast ?
The frog legs are no longer available, I noticed ;)

Not a chance, I bought all that property years ago! 8)

[bigc73542]

See how you are :(

[ronjor]

-{ Quote: "See how you are :(" }-


Tell you what, I can give you a good deal, today only, on some of that property.
Don't miss this chance! 8)

[bigc73542]

I will make you a deal, we can put up some condos and get rich ;D 8)

[Devinco]

That is sooo cool Uguel!! 8)

[Uguel707]

which was right in front of him.... 8)

[bigc73542]

Watch out for sulfuric oxide gas, It could put your lights out

[Devinco]

I'll wear a gas mask. :lurking: The view is great! :)

[Marja]

Finally!! I get to see a volcano! I'm stoked!

What's next? Geysers?

I bet you could cook over a geyser, if you didn't fall in, be careful, DeVinco!! With that gas mask on you won't be able to see.

Has anyone seen my pig?

What is that wonderful smell? With Kansas City Barbecue Sauce? Here?

I must investigate this.

C'mon, Psst! we have a job to do, find that pig!!!
Get in small shapes for now! Watch your backs!!

[Marja]

Oh, how silly of me, Pig is a Psst! member too, he heard FireAnt and got real small, pretty smart for a Pig!
I don't think all this fur works to well around volcanoes, tho, smell burning fur:o :o

DeVinco!!!! Where are you????

[Marja]

BigC and Ronjor?

Does that mean my condos in Utah are.... well, gone!!!!:o

They had catwalks and everything! :( Sniffle!

[Marja]

Oh no !! Pig says she is not PIG, he went for a walk, with who knows what treading about!!!

Hurry, Psst! we must question everyone around, leave no stone unturned, he may have shifted to a worm!

[Marja]

We will never give up the quest for our friend!!

We may as well go eat! Maybe he will turn up, Fire-Ant and DeVinco say they found a big reptile for dinner, got to keep up our strength!!

Signing off, the Pssst! members

[Marja]

Before we go we must watch the sun set!

Oooooh! That's something to dream about!!

G'nite, all.

(Sophie Lerlei)

[Fire-Ant]

Indeed a very beautiful sunset. But we must haste if we are to find pig.
From the east bad weather is closing in. The magnetic storm is disorientating the compass.

[ronjor]

I found a pig over on one of the trails. I will need help!

What none of us ever will have been understanding is that once, very soon, time travel will have passed, or shortly will, depending upon what your points of view will have been by tomorrow's bi-annual anniversary next week. That's not to say, because I haven't have said it before a few minutes hence, that what we've all experienced is so far yet to have happened again but the moment it doesn't I wouldnit have been surprised (yet). Set your calendars back to the top of the bottom of this paragraph - damm! Too late! - unless you managed to get here last. Knew you would, according to next year's last century diary. I'm gonna love these prophets.

All replies yet posted have been replied to, so don't waste the paradox until Time says I should have been doing it, but that'll take a while 'cause I'm going to be busy during Christmas 1958.

[Devinco]

Oh Nurse!!!

Checkout needs more oxygen over here!! ;D

Either the volcanic vapors are getting to him....

Or maybe something much worse.....

It is very rare, but some time travelers suffer from time distortion syndrome.

Your symptoms sound about right. ;D

Are you saying that what was is and the future was but will be again until it was again ???

[Devinco]

I hope Time Distortion Syndrome is not contagious! ;D

[ronjor]

It could be contiguous. Or contagious. Or catching.

[bigc73542]

in other words just watch out you might get it. :o

[Marja]

I think I got it, I found out two days from tomorrow, while looking for 1970, but, my posts are not here yet, so I don't know if I found it???

[smiddy]

Sounds interesting us Aussies Go into Migration mmmmmmmm

[Fire-Ant]

A a safety measure I locked Checkout in the observation room.

[Marja]

No way!! You can't keep a great mind down!!
Or from roaming!

[Marja]

I send my mind out without me all the time, he is NOT there! :) :) 8)

[Marja]

Here's the proof in a photo, see, I'm NOT there!!! Or rather I AM there, my mind is traveling!! Easy, huh? :)

Saves on air fare!!! ;)

Marja8)

[ronjor]

Cat dreams. :)

[Marja]

How strange, Ronjor!! I was just trying to decide between the one I posted and the one YOU posted!

The caption for the photo is great, "What matters most is how you see yourself."

I guess he sees himself quite well!! :) :)

Guess I can forget about the annoyance back yonder! :)

[ronjor]

:D-{ Quote: "How strange, Ronjor!! I was just trying to decide between the one I posted and the one YOU posted!" }-

I found a mind laying around here. Maybe that is why it happened.

[bigc73542]

Who's mind did you find?

[ronjor]

It had to be Marja's. It couldn't be mine. I lost mine a long time ago.
Do you mind if I ask why you want to know about this mind?

[Rita]

hi Crew
i believe that would be my mind that was found,i have an odd buzzing in my head--believe my mind has been returned ;D
Rita

[Uguel707]

After waiting some time for Devinco's return we became worried and decided to send out a search party. :D

[Uguel707]

Devinco clearly had more things on his mind than turning back to the ship! ;D

[bigc73542]

I hope he brought enough marshmallows for everyone ;D

I love BBQ chicken :D

Nice to have a cook along for the trip.

To dare to be/stay bald in stead of using all kinds of those fake, commercial products is refreshing, hygïenic and brave.
So what if the hair is retreating... shave it all off!
Bald is beautiful.
Show you've got attitude - be bald.


A tribute to all bald people! ;D

[Devinco]

Thanks Doctor!
It's made for cats too. ;)
I'm glad you are prepared for such emergencies.

I think it's starting to work already!

look at those teeth, they've definately been whitened

[Uguel707]

Solid fragments were discharged from the volcano...nobody was interested to stay around any longer... Of course, Devinco needed a bit of assistance, lol! ;D

Capt, I saw a flash in the distance. Is the crew leaving again?

[Devinco]

Some of us are still here......

Hair today...gone tomorrow!

Or was it Hair today ... gone yesterday!

We better not go back in time too far...
What happens if we go back before creation began...before the big bang...before the universe or even space or light or time existed?

Hit the blue button!!

[Marja]

Yikes!!! That didn't feel like a button! Le'mme shine a light.....so much blue!!!!

Uh-ohhh, gulp, think I might have punched the wrong blue!!! And it's not very
happy about it, either!

[Fire-Ant]

? eno sihT

[Devinco]

Marja,

You have to be careful where you stick your fingers on this trip! ;D

As for me, while I'm waiting for my hair to grow back, I'll relax in the Time Ship's recreation room. We have a big screen time warp tv that lets you watch any tv program from any time period that broadcast tv signals.
Today there will be Part one (of four) of Origins on Nova on PBS. Should give us some insight to what's in store for us in the past.

[Marja]

Too much bluuuue! Not enough time, punch all round blue thingies!!!!

One of these has to get us out of hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee:o:o:o:o:o

[beetlejuice]

Ahh guys. I think the Martians followed us here. :o

[Devinco]

I'm beginning to hear strange music.

Make it stop!! Make it stop!!

[Fire-Ant]

I think I have the controls of the time machine back to normal.

But I'm not sure about the time period we have entered.

[Fire-Ant]

That horrible song: It's not the Blue Diamonds, I hope?

[beetlejuice]

Ahh, what time is it? ???

[ronjor]

I don't know what time it is, but, whoever heard of having a flat on a time machine! :-X We seem to be getting nowhere.

Based on the regular frequency of your head rotations we can calculate that the time is now.
