The First of April, MDCCCLI
Life, the Universe, Excruciatingly Roseate Coneys, World Illumination, and Whatnot
Oh my. I am ever so sorry. I did not realize…
Oh dear, it appears that you all imagine me to have worked here for some time. No, I merely volunteered because the employees seem to have disappeared. I do hope they’re all right. Em, let’s see…. some cakes, perhaps? I’ll look around to see what they have.
Oh my! The comestibles on offer here look delicious! Lord Pigsworth, would you please be so kind as to recommend a menu item? This is my first time visiting this establishment, and I fear I am slightly overwhelmed.
Ooh, the sandwiches sound delectable! Lord Pigsworth, what do you recommend?
Ah, the estimable Wungs! What would we do without them? May they never leave us.
Sometimes I wonder why they serve us with such alacrity and cheer. Perhaps we are their pets.
Oh dear, it seems there is no waitstaff yet at this establishment. Perhaps I will take on the duties until the official employee arrives. Wungs! Wungs, I say! To these orders, at once!
As I read the Moon of Saturn’s remark, I wonder if the bold and italicized words shall work in this Museion. Also, the words that are crossed out may yet work. Or possible that which links to a different page? Regretfully, there is no way to preiew my remark before it is moderated. Also regretfully, my memory has failed me on the way to use links.
Museion Museion Museion
Only a lemon sherbet for me, thank you.
It is so very pleasant to be able to participate in discussions such as those on the Museion despite the fact that I have quite lost my voice. The Exploration of Yosemite Valley, you say? I’m afraid I have not, Sixth Largest Moon of Saturn.
I must say, I rather enjoy the paler hues of the achromatic Museion. I am of the belief that an over-dose of colour is harmful to the eyes and the psyche.
Let us have a discussion! Has anybody else been reading up on the events of exploration of the Yosemite Valley on March 37th?
I believe I might quite enjoy sitting on one of those couches and enjoying a spot of raspberry tea.
I assume likewise, especially since Professor Spector mentioned how delectable the sandwiches were. I think I shall try one.
Even though the color palette is lacking, I assume the taste of the delicious goodies is not?
I have been working intermittently (when my studies allow) upon a means of introducing a modest selection of hues to the Museion. I’m afraid, however, that coloured glass will not suffice. The kinotropic projectors would have to be fitted with a gear train of prodigious complexity, beyond the capability of any of the gear-cutting lathe attachments in this establishment. I have therefore begun upon a design for a cyclic optical collator, or Prismatrope. If I can insert this into the optical path of our projectors, and harness it to the exhaust vents to provide the necessary impetus, we might indeed see things in more than black and white, as it were.
Sixth Largest Moon of Saturn, that is indeed an interesting arrangement of symbols and letters of the alphabet. Pray tell us what they are meant to ’emote’.
It is certainly unusual.
This appears to be a marvelously relaxing place to inhabit.
In other news, I have been pondering upon (I really do enjoy assonance, do you not as well?) the use of the recent inventions- emoticons. Let us observe on how they function.
:D :( :) :idea: :arrow: :!: :? :??? :mrgreen:
That should certainly be an interesting spectacle to behold.
An excellent idea, and one which, should you devote yourself to the study of Optics (and redouble your efforts in Mathematics), you yourself might one day bring to fruition.
Professor Kuntz, could you not arrange a system of coloured glass with which to provide a wider range of colours for the projectors?
I really should be preparing my Lecture on Pectin Preparation For Perfectly Projectile Pies. But it’s so pleasant here. It’s hard to tear myself away from these delicious sandwiches.
Technology is to blame, I fear. At present, kinotropic projectors have a severely limited colour palette. No doubt they will improve in time, but at the moment we must make do with what we have.
I do rather fancy the British spelling of the words, here…however, the sitting room could use a bit more colour.
