Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I did much of route 66 but not on purpose when I moved out to Cali.

Internet's mostly broken at work. But not to here. God bless a lazy DNS server. Or whatever the magic is.

I'm going to get Chinese in a few. Hopefully, they're resolved their steam table issue, and will have scallion pancakes.

Wow, shiny new thread. Love the title. I need some kicks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've never been on Route 66. But I live near I-66.

I've driven on parts of it. And on I-40, which parallels Route 66.

Should we be talking about that "new car smell" and arguing over who gets the window seats?

Holy crap, we've got robot avatars now

There's a big meeting across the country. What do you do?

1960: You fly there.
1980: You have a conference call.
2000: You do a video conference.
2010: You fire up your robot avatar at the location.

Pardon? Yep, it's for real, folks. A company called Anybots has created a prototype of a robot that will serve as a person's physical presence in a remote location. You log in through the Internet and after a few keystrokes the 'bot, called QB, comes alive, leaving its charging station and ready to meet, brainstorm, greet visitors or just generally creep people out.

“Not dead yet!”

Wow, what a morning to stumble into!

Yay, Gracie, being home! (Noah, be a good brother-- she's there for keeps, bucko!)

Yay, Kalli-- but she can't possibly be a year old already. Nuh and uh.

Yay, msbelle on house offer!

Cash, get better ~ma for your mom--

And in case folks haven't peeked into GWW, Amy sold Cold Kiss to Germany yesterday!

Sorry. You were thwarted by a robot avatar.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I live right off a state road 66!

I should be picking up the house and getting Liv ready to go out rather than enjoying a bit of political schadenfreude. But I can never resist. I lived in this guy's district when he was elected and I've disliked him ever since.

I've been on part of Rte 66. I have a pic of a sign for Hwy 666, which I think has been renumbered.
