I’ll take one crystal UFO thingee and one bovine abduction to go.

Does ordering take out burger count as a bovine abduction?

As a former fine-scale modeler, I am disappointed at the lack of detail. The whole cow? Everyone, and I mean everyone, knows aliens only take the tongues and anuses…ani…whatever.

Plus, I don’t see any crop circle.

And finally, the real failure: This doesn’t look like any hubcap I’ve ever seen.

[Sigh] Let’s hope they get one thing right, at least, in that it leaves a “depression” wherever you put it.

Hmmmm, now that I’m thinking about it, I’d probably pay for a decent animated model of Wowbagger’s ship.

OK, Dr. P., if you “want” that, then there’s a book coming out next summer (other than yours, of course) that you’ll really get weak-kneed over.

It would be $77.85 Canadian but GST would be added.

My desires are a bit larger, I guess.

WANT!!!!!!

I have as yet been unable to convince the city of Prague to sell.

I’m a bit of a clock fancier. The *only* thing I coveted in the Newport Mansions tour was some of the totally wicked clocks they had. The movements themselves were works of art.

One of my big plans for retirement is to build big, elaborate astronomical clocks, but with more of a modern style.
