Another one beat me to it! Good job!

Sadly, he passed away a few years ago.

You won't need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too

Of course, you can do that now, I suppose.
Hahahahahahaha!! I just posted on a “Solo” thread about how it looks like the whole movie was made, just to defend the error they made about parsecs in the first movie!
(And keep your voice down about the zinc, will ya?)
Zager and Evans were incorrect, but they were close.
It was the year 2727. They’re still performing in my time.
But we have them in glass beakers.
The AMC Pacer made a comeback, too. They are now the primary method of interstellar travel for the average citizen.

Invest in Slim Whitman albums. But you didn’t hear that from me.
Oh, and transparent aluminum.

Where IS the machine. Perhaps I can give him some spare parts from mine. Although mine is a 6930 model.

"To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow." -- Metrodorus, 4th c BC Greek philosopher
"Heaven and earth are large, yet in the whole of space they are but as a small grain of rice. How unreasonable it would be to suppose that, besides the heaven and earth which we can see, there are no other heavens and no other earths." -- Teng Mu, 13th c AD Chinese philosopher
"There are so many fruitcakes with YouTube videos claiming time travel that the company needs to change its logo to that of an orchard." -- SunkenCiv, FReeper since 2000-something
Nice Barney Miller reference.
