    Hmm… Jabba the Hutt, Darth Vader, a Xenomorph, Wall-E, Marvin the Martian, ???, Alf, E.T., and Winky. Eight out of nine in one try.

    It’s official: I have no life.

    The one between ALF and Marvin the Martian is from the movie “This Island Earth”.

    The creature lined up after Wall-E is the title character from Alien. If Winky’s lucky, all she’ll want is his spleen.

    Why did I know that Winky would be involved in the cleanup somehow?

    The BLOB was from Outer Space. It will have a Spleen appetizer.

    Isn’t the “Alien” the mother of cliff’s son?

    It just dawned on me, Wall-E is not an alien.

    TheDOCTOR: sorry, the Sontauran is taking a sabbatical after his recent appearance in the Dick Tracy “explosive Stradivarius” series. What got all over him in “DT” was far nastier than a mere oil spill. He hopes to be back in print soon.

    The Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy has a few things to say on the subject of towels: A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitch hiker can have. Partly it has great practical value — you can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a mini raft down the slow heavy river Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can’t see it, it can’t see you — daft as a bush, but very ravenous); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.

    Is that the best that Winky could do for E.T.?

    WillardMBaker said, The BLOB was from Outer Space. It will have a Spleen appetizer.

    But how would you tell the difference between it and the oil?

    The spill’s going to have an adverse effect on sci-fi:

    Tar Wars. Lukoil Skywalker must defeat Tarth Vader. Tar Trek. “Scotty, clean me up!” Targate. Tarman. The Last Tarfighter. Space Tarballs. BP the Extra-Viscosital…

    For those who are still wondering, the third alien in line is called the Metaluna Mutant. And if you really want to laugh at him, watch Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Marvin: “Oh dear, this is most inconvenient. My Q38 explosive space modulator was hopelessly ruined by those oil rocket people, and it will take 20 years to order another one. They make me very angry.”

    With 700 years between maintenance stops, Wall-E would probably enjoy an oil bath.

    Just run them through a transporter. Adjust the biofilter so it will filter the oil off of their skin/fur/whatever they use for an outer shell. They’ll be clean as a whistle, and Winky won’t have to risk his spleen…
