I forgot to mention something I had written in my notes earlier in the day. In my artificial memory, I got out of the Navy in 1990 and went to work repairing cash machines and other bank computer equipment for a company

Damn, I thought after writing all these notes to myself today, this is going to turn in to the Great Lakes based on the volume. Every single detail I remember to my artificial life means something else, it is some metaphor for something else. All this stuff I see in the movies and television was put there to help me find my way back.


At some point today, I noted to myself the words: Inhibitor. Govenor. Throttle.


Can it be so bad???? Can whatever it is that "Q" put me here to understand really be that bad?

I find myself thinking about this time a long time ago. I may have been in the 4th grade at the time, I don't remember. One of us, maybe me, accidentally made up the fold-out sofa bed with the dog still in it. She stayed in there all day. I came home from school and sat down on the sofa wondering where she was. Then I started hearing her faintly crying out, but I couldn't tell where the sound was coming from. This other neighbor kid was sitting on the couch too, we had to have been crushing her. Eventually I realized she was inside the couch and let her out. She jumped out and ran to the water bowl. I can certainly understand how that dog must have felt.

Flight of the Intruder


:22:44
All right, now listen, Doc.

:22:46
Don't touch anything.

:22:47
Keep your hands in your lap.

:22:47
Absolutely.

:22:48
The only exception
is if you have to eject.

:22:50
Eject?

:22:51
Now, you got a yellow
and black handle

:22:52
here and one here--
you pull it.

:22:53
The command will be
"eject, eject, eject."

:22:55
Three times, you got it?

:22:56
Yes, "eject, eject, eject."

:22:57
Do I say roger or...
just do it or what?

:23:00
You even say "huh," you'll
be talking to yourself...

:23:03
'cause I'll be gone.

White House is coming out live.

:09:51
Good evening, my fellow Americans.

:09:54
I apologize for interrupting
your regular programs...

:09:57
...but I have a very important
announcement to make.

:10:01
Many important things have happened
to me in my life:

:10:04
My graduation from Princeton...

:10:07
...the day that Marsha said
she would be my wife...

:10:10
...the birth of our daughter Taffy.

:10:13
Thanks, Dad.

:10:14
And the news that I have heard today
ranks right up there.

:10:18
A powerful memory is in the making.

:10:21
Not just for me...

:10:23
...but for all mankind.

:10:25
Today...

:10:26
...an extraordinary discovery
was made by the Hubble telescope.

I started thinking that I discovered life on Mars. Some kind of sandbugs. And that explains a lot too. Something about sandkings or sand devils. Something about holes bored into the walls of a gully or cliff, as though by creatures.

There has got to be some other memories that represent being on Mars. I wrote about some others, such as digging in the crumbly clay of that gully

I think I am in love with Lily Jang. It seems crazy to even write that, with all things considered, but, well, what isn't crazy right now?

Mars Attacks!


:17:07
Call me Nathalie.

:17:09
And you, do please call me Donald.

:17:13
I admire your show.

:17:17
Really? You like my work?

:17:19
Yes. Very much.

:17:22
Why....

:17:23
Thank you.

:17:25
Coming out of commercial.

:17:27
In five...four...

:17:29
...three...two....

:17:30
Welcome back.
We're with Professor Donald Kessler.

:17:36
He's the chairman
of the American Academy...

:17:39
...of Astronautics.

:17:42
Professor...

:17:44
...isn't it weird that we sent
a space probe to Mars...

:17:47
...and we didn't even find anyone?

:17:49
Well, not really...

:17:51
...Nathalie.

:17:53
We didn't get into the canals.

:17:55
The Martian canals are canyons.

:17:58
Some are over 100 miles deep.

:18:00
The Martian civilization has clearly
developed under the planet's surface.

:18:05
Their science and technology
must be absolutely mind-boggling.

:18:09
So...

:18:10
...what in your view, Donald...

:18:12
...Kessler...

:18:14
...Chairman, are some of the things
the Martians can teach us, Professor?

:18:20
Quite a lot about Mars, Nathalie.

:41:44
Holy Mother of God!

:41:47
Did you see that?

:41:48
We should hit these assholes
with everything we've got, sir.

:41:52
Sir, Mr. President,
I know this seems terrible...

:41:54
...but let's not be too rash.

:41:56
We should nuke them!

:41:58
We must establish
a line of communication first.

:42:01
Set up a town hall.

:42:03
We'll get the public's opinion.

:42:07
What do you think?

:42:10
Kick the crap out of them.

:42:13
Ladies and gentlemen...

:42:15
...it may be a cultural misunderstanding.

:42:18
Maybe to them, doves mean war.

This...

:12:20

:12:24
Shut up, Poppy. Shut up.

Shut up!

Jason Stone.

:12:33
It's for you.

:12:36
Poppy, honey. No, sweetie.

:12:40
That's right. Good girl.

:12:46
I could be there at...

:12:48
...I don't know, 11:00.

:13:05
They want me to interview
the professor from the White House.

:13:09
Kessler?

:13:11
Donald Kessler?

:13:13
Yeah, I think that was his name.

:13:15
You know, the science guy.

:13:17
This is nuts, this is....

:13:19
We should have got that guy.

:13:21
Your people are too slow.

:13:24
Right, Poppy?
