Poll: Do you regularly wear a wristwatch?

It was actually rather difficult fitting both Young Adam and Young Jamie into the flying saucer so you could see them. Presumably they're one-Martian saucers.


2025-05-01 Rerun commentary: Helicopters fly very low over my home occasionally. One did so just a few minutes ago as I type this. It was low enough that I could feel waves of pressure in my ears[1], as though someone was holding plungers on each ear and pushing in and out.

The reason is I live near a hospital, and it has a helipad for emergency use. So I suppose I can forgive that.

[1] Not sound waves, smarty-pants, which are also literally waves of pressure in your ears that you sense. Although there were rather loud sound waves as well.
