Picture a bright blue ball just spinning, spinning free

That's not a snail, that's a Jawa Trader with a searchlight behind him. Probably from his Sand Crawler.

Yes - I loved that book. John Wyndham. Published 1951 :o

Oh sheetsky. Now you made me see that too. Only I think it's a red version of Audrey, from Little Shop of Horrors, getting ready to wake up.

Your apperception is simply maturing to my creative genius. It's too early to tell if this can be called my Avatar Period, though. :wink:

It always gets us into religious discussions. We bear too, too many scars from those more freewheeling days when almost anything was permissible grist for the mill here. Only the n00bs ( :poke: ) bring it up now. But go in peace, and worship as you see fit. :wink:

It does suggest a smattering of understanding of BBC codes though.

That was a bit of a journey, wa'nit!

I have taken many a beating from you, and if even in only this small way, they have paid off. Plus it helps that you handed the opportunity to me complete with gravy, an apple in its mouth, and a silver platter to sit on. Now was simply the time to strike, and strike I did. Thank you, sensei, for all your hard-a$$ed grandmotherly kindnesses. :wink:
