Though there was a mention of the Flux Capacitor in an obscure ’80’s science fiction movie, and here, the invention is actually credited to Emo, who received the coveted “Inventor of the Year” award form Popular Science magazine. Here is a shot of the June, 2005 cover.
When did Emo move to Minnesota?
He came to live with us when we lived there. He’s actually from Wisconsin.
So, he was the idea man, right? Just saying, as he does not look to have the paw dexterity to build complicated mechanisms for time travel.
Emo has mastered the art (and science) of psychokinesis. His abilities are amazing; he can move objects, generate heat, and bend spoons with his mind. Oddly, he lacks the ability to open a can of tuna fish, which is why he keeps me around.
What the f….is a Flux Capacitor?!! Whatever….Emo is one cool cat. 😉
Thanks, Janina. The Flux Capacitor is a complex device that enables time travel. We don’t use it very much, only when we want vegetables out of season.
Wow, that is a good response!
“A likely story” (to quote my mother). Emo doesn’t eat vegetables.
Well, technically no, he doesn’t eat vegetables. He plays with them.
LOL….you’re a dag! 🙂
(Look it up in the Macquarie English Dictionary, or perhaps a define:dag search! Cheers!)
I did not know Emo could read!!! I am going to tell my parrot to be careful.. Emo’s watching!
big cuddle to him.
Emo is very curious about the parrot. They should meet!
That Emo, master of all. Movie star. Inventor. Ruler. Simply amazing! And here I thought Doc Brown invented the Flux Capacitor. 😀
Thanks, Paul. Don’t believe everything you see in the movies. Like this blog, they’re 99% fact free!
I keep forgetting that. I need to make a note. Does Emo have any elixirs that he’s invented to improve memory?
That’s so funny!
But on a serious note:
I really need one of these flux capacitor things, perhaps you could direct me to the closest retail outlet?
Thanks, Sync. Currently there is no retail outlet as these devices are strictly controlled but we are hoping to reach an agreement with Amazon.com for distribution. We will be offering a free “3 WOLVES” tee shirt to the first 100 customers.
Now I need a “3 WOLVES” tee shirt too.
And a “Goldilocks” tee shirt.
I’ve heard of cats having nine lives, but is EMO a reincarnation of Einstein? This has to be one of the best Posts for comments EVER. I hope you pay EMO well, he’s like gold dust as a collaborator.
Thanks, Andy. Let me assure you that Emo is well compensated. He has no claims of being Einstein and retains the demeanor of his humble beginnings in River Falls, WI. If you’re ever in the area, stop by ans say hello.
That’s very kind of you, Ken. Is that an invitation to meet Emo or are you included to?
Actually, you may never get to see Emo as he is very shy. I am too, but not quite as much as he is so, yes, I’m included.
