Oh, this is GOOD. 😂😂😂 Checking in during a quiet moment at work (ssshhhh) and I had so much fun and so many laughs with this one.

I'd also love to see the Muskrat become a castaway. Please.

Great 'toon, Clay! I DO wish we could lose both Elon and Felon Trump permanently! (I found Mario!!! My fave!)

Funny. Lots of Easter eggs. Someday I’ll need a primer for the older ones.

LOL. Pretty good Clay. Gilligan as LOST IN SPACE! Would he be smarter than the robot?

Don['t particularly want to lose Musk this quickly. Musk is HATED and people are hating on Trump because he won't git rid of Musk. Musk hasn't done anything yet that can't be undone, so keep him going for a while longer. I want people hating the GOP so hard, they'll be swearing never to vote for a Republican again.

By the robot are you meaning Robbie the Robot?....Lost in Space, that was a fun program. I am talking about the 1960's one. I never saw the new series or movie. Dr Smith was so despiseable. I know that isn't a word but it fits the feeling.

Robbie the Robot is from the movie "Forbidden Planet". The robot on "Lost in Space" was never given a name. The two robots look similar enough that over time people decided they were the same robot. Of course this was pre-internet. I've never seen the movie, but from what I understand it would hold up well today since humanity still hasn't learned its lesson.

Edited to add that my husband said that the movie I was thinking of is "The Day the Earth Stood Still". He is the sci/fi buff. And yeah, I could totally see a certain demographic in our world shoot the aliens who were trying to help us.

We found a montage of the "Lost in Space" robot scenes that was neat. Get this, the first episode starts with a gentleman telling the president that the crew is lost in space. The date? 1997! This feels like "Back to the Future" and the flying skateboards.

I'm only aware of Forbidden Planet from The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

When my husband showed me the scene where we meet the robot a very young Leslie Neilsen was who stood out. Even in black and white his eyes were twinkling. I immediately started singing "Science-Fiction Picture Show". I have never seen the movie in a theater. I am too high-strung now. I wouldn't be able to handle the noise and the crowds, but I love the movie and the soundtrack.

Thanks for the correction. I don't think I have seen "Forbidden Planet" but after reading the plot it sounds vaguely familiar. It could just be that I have read too much Sci Fi.

I take forever to type, so your reply came while I was editing. In school I typed 17 words per minute. Yeah, I am that bad. lol Of course that was on a manual typewriter. My school did get 2 word processors that year, but I never got to use one.

For the record, I am hearting your comment, not the theft. I come from a army family and my husband was army, so I am used to movers. I do not recall anything missing as a child. I can guarantee my mother would have brought it up for years after. I screwed up when my husband and I moved back to the states. One of the boxes was missing, but I didn't catch it until we went to move to a different house. I was overwhelmed with everything - the move, my daughter, and I was tired. Come to find out I was pregnant and I was put on bed-rest for most of it. That box had some of the china my mother had bought in the 60s when they were stationed in K-town, Germany. She had given it to me when I got married. Since I couldn't unpack stuff, and we had only used the china a few times in Germany, it wasn't a big deal...until I realized what had happened. By then it had been too long to register a complaint.

These fuck nut trumpers think that elon woke up (sorry for using the word woke, hope I didn't trigger a trumper), anyway, the fuck nuts think elon woke (there it is again) that morning and thought, hey I think I'll send up a rocket today and save those poor "stranded" astronauts that Biden left up there. They don't have enough critical thinking (damn, now I used critical thinking, triggrring more trumpers) skills that it takes months to plan space travel.

Yup - that was me with the stranded remark. Drove me crazy as I, too, thought they were treating this like Apollo 13 and subtly praising Trump/Musk. Of course it is sad that I find out more about what is going on from reading your blog than the two newspapers I pay for or the news. I posted yesterday somewhere that I checked the 11:00 local news on Friday to see if they had any coverage of the massive AOL/Sanders rallies in Colorado. Nope - they used the entire 30 minutes to cover a controlled structure fire in Pacoima (I live in SoCal). Even included "interviews" with multiple neighbors to fill the time - "yeah, ah, this is really crazy". My guess is they want to find an excuse to not report on the rallies. Pathetic.

Argo won best picture Oscar (but Ben didn't win best director) that year and earned over $200 million, making it a high grosser that year, so it did pretty good.

You're the first to catch that, at least that I'm aware of. You win one Peezy Point. I just made that up.
