A whole host of it. Especially if you've chatted with Alexa in the last year or so.

Shasta, there are three ages of man. Believing in fantasies, Believing only in realities, and Realizing that all reality was originally God's fantasy. Which is to say never throw away the childlike with the childish. Always keep that sense of wonder. The older I get, the more I realize how much...

Ah, a thoughtful remark indeed. However I don't believe alternate realities form ex nilho without a creator. I suppose the best argument for other realities is the common sense outrage you'd feel if someone asked you why you NEEDED to have a second child if you already had ONE. Or why you NEED a...

So that, like Project Apollo, you can visit other worlds and end with a splashdown? ;-) I once thought it would be interesting to say that every century or so it actually rains in the world between the woods, and if the water gets deep enough some of the ponds temporarily merge.

I'm wondering if Rob has ever considered using the voice dictation feature in a word processing program like Word. When I can touchtype, I can run circles around having to go in and do spell check here and there, but it's MUCH faster and less stressful than one handed typing. Just be sure to...

I usually let my characters speak for me. It was fun to write directly to my audience, and I'll be sure to do it again sometime. Pax vobiscum John +

My house is littered with dozens of unwanted paintings of ships at sea. None of them worked.... I also have a large slightly-used wardrobe I'll give away, with the caveat that it's only good for storing fur coats (included).

Actually not a close equivalent to "The Visitor." This story was actually begun about 21 years ago and I didn't know how to properly resolve it. I had a separate fascination with what happens to people who go into a coma (The Visitor) and people who are interlocking (Topsy Turvy) and any...

Personally I wonder why they call it a "joystick" when it's so FRUSTRATING. ;-) Same thing about a "controller" when I can't control one. ;-)

I like the Magician's Nephew because it hints at a vast tree of separate realities. Sometimes people have this knee-jerk reaction and ask why God would need to make more than one creation. That's when I nod and wink and say, "He didn't need YOUR creation, but aren't you glad He did it anyhow?"

Maybe they'd pass through platform 9 3/4 for the Narnia Express...... (Harry Potter fans will get that one).

Morris the Finicky Cat as Aslan.

You are the result of history...

It also ties into a feeling the Ancient Greeks called storge, which indicates adjusted comfy familiarity.

Aslan and the Justice League....

Diggory Kirk grew up to be the professor. The fruit he brought back for his sick mother had a seed which he planted. That grew into the tree which later fell and the wood used to make a wardrobe through which the Pevensies travelled to Narnia. That is canon.

I know the reference is only tangental, but I'm reminded of a quote from the novel 1984 when, having rid the world of conflicting opinions and history, "there is only the eternal now, in which the party is always right." When we lose respect for our history, we lose respect for our foundation.

Really, really sick idea. Just like the Flintstones, the four Pevensies have talking beasts around the house that operate as "equipment" like an elephant for a vacuum clener, and large gryphons as "Narnia Air".

I did not know they were going to do that to the building.
