Head up towards New Braunfelds and scout around for German delis and bakeries. Westphalia, Zobzikville, Lott, all of those little German colonies have great beer, great meats, and great bakeries, - often all-in-one. (Went to college in Belton and College Station).

We don't know if this is the cycle where they've already fixed it -- with some of the characters traveling backward in time, this might have been published in one of the pre-repair cycles.bmonk wrote:Nah--they fixed that already.NOTDilbert wrote:And we all know the world ends in thirty days!shadowinthelight wrote:@Atomic, you may want to fix the date in the thread title.

If so, I hope "Wapsi Squre" is also published in the final cycle (the one everone gets to remember).

Re: Been Important 2016-11-21
This is true. We won't know for sure if this really IS the last cycle until after Dec. the 22nd has past in Wapsi-world. Paul could have one heck of a reboot to the story and it's characters coming if something was missed by the gang and the reset still happens again. What an opportunity to totally "re-imagine" the whole thing. I guess even Phix wouldn't know if another cycle reset is coming.Haylo wrote:We don't know if this is the cycle where they've already fixed it -- with some of the characters traveling backward in time, this might have been published in one of the pre-repair cycles.Jabberwonky wrote: Actually, we won't know that until Dec. 22.

Seems unlikely though, since the Time Tree Forest's overall time cycle ended in this time period, which would indicate the cycles were truly over. Yet, I can't help but wonder if Paul has something for us on Dec. 22 which will make all the other breakneck shifts in story direction look like a gentle curve at walking speed.[/quote]

I've mentioned before, what if the Calendar Machine® was trying to keep something bad from happening in it's own unscrutable way? What if there something really bad gonna happen after Dec.21?

That would have been quite a ... noticable explosion to remove an island to a depth of 1400 meters. I notice that the 'image' looks a little bit like the deck view of an aircraft carrier (but way too big) - even seems to be casting a 'shadow' on the seafloor to the east.Jay-Em wrote:And now for something completely different.
