Until it washed up I guess it could technically have been called a UFO

I think that would be a USO.

The same thing once happened on Gilligan's Island. On that episode, there were Russians inside.

Isn't UFO - Unidentified Flying Object? They never mentioned it flying at all.

The F could also stand for "floating"

Sometimes I wish the time was listed out to the seconds. I want to know how much you beat me by on that one Shawshank.

I hope Charlie comes walking out. Wouldn't that be the biggest TV/Reality crossover ever?

Also, it's clearly one of these: Whatever you do, don't open it!

EDIT: Which would also be a huge tv/reality crossover to a magnitude of awesome.

No, it's clearly one of these: Phil Harris: The Thing

Still, don't ever stop and open it up.

It really was spelled better than that when I started typing it, the insert key and cat were wrecking havoc together.

Dragon when I posted I first saw yours and then saw mine. I was pretty happy I got it first- it's the closest I've ever come to winning on Hatrack. [Smile]

Finally, I've been trying to find that metal container ever since I misplaced it 20 years ago.

Thanks for finding it for me, I'll send you $20 in the mail.

Hey, as long as black oil doesn't start leaking out and entering people's bodies, I think we're good.

I find that explanation somewhat unsatisfying. I mean, what is a beer fermentation tank doing floating around in the ocean? Was it being transported from the foundry in Japan to a brewery in Wisconsin and a storm arose and the ship sank? Do some cruise ships brew their own beer on board to save money, and then get the whole crew so drunk they accidentally push it overboard like the elves in the dungeons of the kingdom of the wood elves? I mean, we're left with a less than complete story here. Who can fill us in? Enquiring minds want to know!

Dang. I was really hoping it'd have talking apes from the future.

Or at least a genie that looked like Barbara Eden, no?

Maybe its really an alien time capsule and the beer story is just a huge international cover up [Wink]
