"I wish I could do animation, it would suit many of these stories well."

Maybe you should try story-boarding them. Render the dialogue, and the discriptions, and when action is suggested, try a sketch or two.

You might be better at that than you think.

But they could still converse, as well as aggravate and foil plans while feeling a robotic sense of self satisfaction?
What would happen were they to become mobile?

Probably.
I tried sequential art once, wasn’t too pretty.

Bill drew a picture of his eye, having first taken a picture of his eye with his camera.

I’m terrible with sequential art.

I’ve never tried it. I don’t produce much of any kind of art, although I did draw a recognizable aardvark a while back.

I expanded on the slingshot move around the silicon bugs star.
I figured gravity would be pretty rough there, so Sigma is experiencing pure hell in that section of that story.

Sigma is having a hard time ... it’s a good thing you gave him some interesting theme music.

Hello had to drive out of town this morning to the Post Office. 9 inches of snow overnight.

We just have rain. Yesterday was sunny and upper 60s, so the pets got one day with Sunbeam Time and nice walks before Early Spring hit again. We need the rain, or the county will cut everyone’s water usage again. I live in fear of the dreaded Household Water Limit, since my household is more than double the average.

Sounds like you live in California? I guess Nevada is that way also? We depend on the snow during the season for our water.

North Carolina. But I remember rationing in California. “If it’s yellow, let it mellow. If it’s brown, flush it down.”

...and 40 years later "brown" is back in the governor's office.

Unforgettable...

Y'know; I've occasionally read about folks running away to join the circus, but — growing up in California — I somehow never felt the need.

As an adult, I've come to understand why.

We lived in California in 1965-67 and 1970-75. Last time I was there was spring break my junior year of college ... think think ... 1987. My mom and I visited her sister in Orange County.

Anoreth was there last year, though.

The only time I haven’t been in CA was when I was away at college.

Anaheim, 1965 to mid-1979
Clayton, 1979 to 1983
Anaheim, 1984 to 1990
Concord, 1991 to now

9” of new snow? That sucks.
I read about some mountains in CA that have had 61’ of snow so far this year.

Did Fred get to go for a car ride?
