Hi there, and welcome to the most tardy resurrection of a BBoard fixture EVER. First, some unfinished business from the Guardian Edition:• Slider_Quinn21 wins a doily made of Chantilly Lace!
• FogBoy wins a VHS tape of "Farewell My Concubine"!
• Vigeant wins some girl, and a membership for her in WOMBATS... the Women's Mountain Bike And Tea Society! [http://www.wombats.org/]
• DoctorWhy wins a tape of "The Guardian" played at half speed, so it ends up lasting TWO hours!
• dellyone wins "Moscow on the Hudson," while ThomasMalthus wins "Stand By Me"... and a Bungie cord! Okay, so it's actually the cord that secures Bungie Software's "Mac Action Sack," but whaddaya want on *this* Satellite's budget?!

• EustiSlider wins the ability to slow time itself!To be eligible for next episode's prizes, just participate in...
-- MORAL OF THE STORY: AS TIME GOES BY --
SYNTHIA: Hey, I couldn't think of a more appropriate episode, what with the period that's elapsed since you *last* got off your lazy ass and sat down to write one of these..
GRIM_REAPER [peeking her head in the door]: Do you have a speech impediment of some kind that we should know about? I suggest you reread your sentence, perhaps a little slower next time.
BLINKER: This is the last time I let *you* pick the episode. So, what's your moral?
SYNTHIA: Well, I learned that nothing short of the DESTRUCTION OF AN ENTIRE UNIVERSE can snap Quinn out of the hormone-crazed stupor that will shortly become his default condition. Yourself?
BLINKER: I learned that 'Jakob' the gardener and -- PHONE BOOTHS -- across the multiverse are inextricably intertwined.
SYNTHIA: Rather like Sabrina Lloyd's arm and your tuft of hair?
BLINKER [scowling]: If she'd just agreed to kiss me at that autograph session... OR AT ANY POINT THEREAFTER... she wouldn't still be here!
SABRINA LLOYD [whose hand is indeed ensnarled in the Forest o' Follicles]: I miss my plants...
So what are YOUR morals, folks? It's all fair game!
- Blinker 7:-P

The
Moral of the Story

From: Vigeant
The Moral of the story is that it is fun to play around with the space time continuum, at least once.(Vigeant gets poked on the back by some disfigured Vigeant from Earth 69 which he messed with recently)
Or not I guess...the real moral is that if you want Ice Cream Vig's is the place to go, for high quality ice cream Vig's the best on the planet. That's VIGS brand ice-cream.
Vigeant
"Oh come now Edna! We all know know that these children HAVE no futures.." -silence- "Prove me wrong kids.. prove me wrong!"
BTW Blink- Did you get my e-mail? :-P

The moral of this story is that we finally have a world where the Canadians are in their proper place...under the heel of Mexico. Those damn Maple Leaf wearin', Molson drinkin', universal health care lovin' freaks. [pause] I'm kidding! I love you guys. - FlexoThe TRUE moral is that love conquers all...especially that obsessive, stalking love that Quinn seems to be fond of. I mean, Hinkley was willing to shoot the President for Jodie Foster, but Quinn...he destroyed an entire dimension for Daelin. That's got to impress any lady!

Backwards
sex would be awful.

Think about it. Eeeeeeeeeew.The moral of the story is you can't go back. Not even on a backwards world. Quinn finally realized that in the end.
Back to backwards sex ... eeeeeeeeew!!!!
It
has been a long time. :p

I don't even remember what I wrote for The Guardian. LOLMorals... hmmm... if I'm sentenced to prison, I'll be hoping that time goes backwards so that I will have the trial then get off.
If you write for Sliders, then ignore any possible future storylines presented by episodes past. ;-) I would have liked to seen what happened to that world since the fabric of time was literally coming apart. Did this portend future events such as the arrival of those horrid S3 scripts?
Where's Q when you need him? Probably harrassing some poor captain. LOL

Moral?
Uh.. There was a Moral??

There was a moral in that? Especially that last world they visited... When time went Backwards.. Now what I don't understand is why Remmy and Arturo were in the Cell with Quinn if Quinn killed her.. I dunno!! Maybe I should go back and watch the Show again..But If I had to pick an Moral for it, It would be that Things happen for a reason. Quinn slid into those worlds to help out the cow.. er... I mean Daelin... Oh Look at the time!!

That's not a moral, just a fact.The real moral of "As Time Goes By" is that Charlie O'Connell is much more watchable when you know that he's going to be shot at some point in the episode.

I
learned that...

...Charlie O'Connell's acting ability is directly proportionate to the amount of facial hair he possesses at any given moment. Stubbly-bearded Charlie did much better as Kit Richards than clean-shaven nepotism boy did as Colin Mallory. My only problem is with his character's name. It sounds like Mr. Fantastic bought the car from "Knight Rider" and turned it into a new version of the Fantasticar that could talk.MR. FANTASTIC: Listen up, gang. This new talking car I bought is going to help us find Dr. Doom's hideout. So listen very carefully to his...
INVISIBLE WOMAN: You BOUGHT a talking car?!? The man who can invent a spaceship that NASA would wet themselves over out of bits of string, old plastic cups and packets of Taco Bell Fire sauce?!?!?
MR. FANTASTIC: The guy gave me a good deal, said he was going to tour Germany...
THING: Yer losin' yer touch, stretcho. I think I'll storm off and go find Alicia. Been three issues since I've done that.
HUMAN TORCH: Looks like the FF are breaking up for the 2,367,829th time. Yawn. Oh well. At least I'm not marrying an alien this week.
Or something like that.
