I adore sausage sauce—that’s what I put on top of the zucchini lasagna! I also adore potatoes in pretty much any form. For some reason, I’ve been daydreaming about a la king and tetrazzini lately.
Have come to the conclusion that NB is stuck in a wrinkle in time. It does not exist in our dimension. No usual expectations apply there. It’s a good thing that you have canine and feline units to provide reality checks. Otherwise, it’d be really creepy.
And to think I was WORRIED!
((((HUGGS))))

time is meaningless waiting for NB Utilities or Mario-Luigi
Oh no!!
I expect that there is more to this than the Information Office is letting you know. Since the Quantum tunneling device requires more power upon activation than would be available off the grid of the entire EU. It obtains this power from the energy released at the event horizon of a quantum black hole. During periods of inactivity when this quantity of power is not needed (as when the Ministry of Tourism forgets to direct patrons to the device to utilize its services), this quantum black hole is kept in a containment field that is supplied from the local power grid. If not for the containment field, the quantum black hole would escape from the device.
Hopefully no one from your Brit equivalent of Con Edison actually terminated the power to the device for non payment.. Else, retrieval of the escaped quantum black hole will by now be impossible. More than likely it is well on its way toward the core of the planet happily digesting matter on the way. Whatever agency of the g'vt was in charge of paying the meter needs to come up with some likely sounding lies explanations as to why they have effectively destroyed the planet as we knew it..
lol
That would be a great story.
If you can make it short enough you should submit it:
I don't think he's in San Francisco...
Not that I could expect to go through the entire litany of comments but I imagine “Kneel Before Zot” as the best one of them all.
That would explain why the staff where wearing lead lined clothing.
The thing must be in the cupboard in the office.

YES! the Drinks cooler was unplugged!
Get some rolls of 35mm film and sit a few streets away...could get some interesting pictures out of this...

We are dealing with experts in that field of creativity. :)
That deserves a ‘Rim-shot’! LOL!
Hi! My mother and daughters should be arriving in London tomorrow morning your time. When last seen, they were planning to go to Philadelphia and Stand By.
It's OK, go ahead and read 'em. There's only about 2000 right now.
Welcome to the realm of the undead thread!
lol
Oh man...the NSA have even been eves dropping on the electrical signals between my Eyes and Bra...um...yeah...Neural network system.
I know...
Someone already did a similar one.. Way back in time (as in decares ago) when I had subscriptions of IASF and F&SF mags (and it seems there was one other), one of them published a story along those lines, but instead of powering a tunneling device, the unit was used as a garbage disposal providing the useful service of disposing of the trash while supplying useful energy. Until one day someone tried to adjust it..
The device emitted a sound similar to "poof" and the energy output ceased. They discovered a miniscule round hole in the flooring. And in the concrete basement floor directly below..
Hi T-C!
From here I can only wish them a Good Flight.
The ‘Fog’ may be there to greet them in the morning but on the whole it should be a nice day.
Wet over the week end and Dry the following week.
Analog magazine?
Mom just phoned and said that, after standing by for Philadelphia all day, they’re now going to get on the Charlotte-London flight that they’d originally planned on. Last night it didn’t have enough seats available, but now it does.
