    Oh, man, you've captured how I feel this morning perfectly! 

    Somehow, I feel a little better now, like I'm not alone... laugh

    I got to use Clippy in a render .... angel

    How helpful is he if he's carrying that?

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 9,157

    not very... like he can't even juggle laugh

  • wsterdanwsterdan Posts: 3,521

    Juggling? I just assumed someone would ask him what he was holding and in his typical, "helpful" way show them by exploding it and wiping out their computer... and the room it sat in.

    Great image!

    Quick Draw McGraw and Baba Looey were some of my favourites on Saturday morning as a kid, not to mention El Kabong ("Of all the heroes in legend and song, there's none as brave as El Kabong") and, of course, Snuffles. Great memories, great way to start my Saturday morning. Thanks.

    Awesome character! Fascinating stuff, but besides his writings I think I mostly liked Al Stewart's song about him. 

    Thanks for sharing, now I'm going to have to try to fall asleep both thinking about his writings while Al's lyrics play in my head...

    I was unaware of this song... I youtubed it and listened... is it the one that goes for about 8 minutes? 

  • wsterdanwsterdan Posts: 3,521

    That sound about right.

    Nostradamus, off the 1973 album, "Past, Present and Future" that featured a cover image of (someone who looks like) Dr. Strange entering a mystic portal.

    Marvel probably copied the idea wink

    nothing is original but modern movies destroy web searches when trying to find older stuff

    I was infuriated I couldn't find a book about a house someone built in 4 dimensions which collapsed into itself 

    because I knew a base 4 cube is called a Tesserat

    I have never actually watched those Marvel movies but saw nothing else Googling it

    BTW eventually found  it

     And He Built a Crooked House

    is a 1941 science‑fiction short story by Robert A. Heinlein about an architect who builds a house shaped like a tesseract net, which collapses into a four‑dimensional form after an earthquake.

    thanks Copilot

    Oh, Marvel's Dr. Strange came way, way before, you can be sure the album cover artist was the one swiping.

    I loved "And He Built a Crooked House", I believe I read it in a collection called, "The Unpleasant Profession of Jonathan Hoag" and it's the first time I'd ever heard of tesseracts. If I remember correctly (an occurance that happens less and less lately. it seems) the character's address was actually across the street from where Heinlein was living at the time.

    I read a lot of Science Fiction but tend to forget authors and titles

    and often misremember and combine stories cheeky

  • wsterdanwsterdan Posts: 3,521

    I was much better at authors and titles when I carries physical books around with me, as I'd always see the covers. Once I started reading digitally, unless it's an authour I already have a long history with I rarely remember the title of the book or the author's name; I download a book, never see the cover after the download and then finish the book and download the next one, and so on and so on. After a year, if you ask me what 30 books I've read I can tell you some of this series or that series, but individual titles or authors? Rare.

    I started doing a lot of reading when I was 5 years old. I blame my older brother for that ( 13 years older than me ) as he bought the full set of Encyclopaedia Britannica and I was hooked on reading for about 3 years.

    Yes, I was the best reader at my school but it did put me off reading as I grew older. I mean after reading the full volume of the Britannica what more does one need laugh devil

    Well, the annual updates, obviously! Half of that stuff is all "wrong" now... 

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 9,157

    that's probably why I'm so wacky laugh

    I must admit when I got my 3rd computer I did buy a set of the Funk & Wagnels CD .... angel

    my whole family were readers and good spellers.. Even my cousin ( 6 years old at the time ) when I was 12 came up to me and said 'I can spell nasturtiums, can you spell nasturtiums?' then continued to spell it and then said now your turn.... the pressure was immense.... indecision

    No kidding! I'm glad it wasn't me!

    Learned to read early from comic books, and my wife and I read to the kids constantly as they grew up and they're readers and my daughter's a writer. To be honest, I think the thing that impresses me most about them is that when they text, they've always texted in whole sentences, never in anything other then the Queen's English... or should I be saying " the King's English.  " now?
