Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for September 08, 2019

“How many roads must a man walk down?”

What’s six times seven?

Did he take 7.5 million years to come up with that answer?

What is the meaning of life?

Just take a trip to Milliways. Sit down, relax. Order a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. And, above all: DON’T PANIC!

“How many of my circuits still work?”

If Oldbot came up with the answer in just a few hours, then he’s the greatest computer of all time.

42 = one less than the maximum number of hits Sheldon Cooper was able to keep a hackysack aloft.

Who was the Dodgers’ greatest first base player?

It’s the answer to Life, The Universe, and Everything. Everyone should know that! So long, and thanks for all the fish.

It saddens me to think about what Douglas Adams might have written if he’d lived another twenty years.

Of course it has to be Cliff to stuff up his train of thought. Pam!!!!!

“Life? Don’t talk to me about life…” “And I’ve got this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left side… I’ve asked for them to be replaced, but does anyone listen to me? I know that I’m just a menial Robot, but…”

So Oldbot must have been built by the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation…or Mom’s Friendly Robot Company.

“What is the air-speed velocity of an unladed swallow?”

It’s the answer to the ultimate question…. not necessarily the meaning of life.

The ultimate question of life, the universe and everything.

If only Oldbot had remembered on 25 May…

The answer to life, the universe and everything

Is today Douglas Adams’ birthday or something? No? Great tribute, anyway!

:)

Life, the universe, and everything?

life universe and everything! There is someone that died too early!

Old Bot should stop communicating with Marvin the Paranoid Android or they will put him in the RU Sirius parking lot.

Having just turned 42, I sympathize with him on many levels.

I sympathize with Oldbot.

He didn’t think we’d jump all over that one?

“What’s one short of the number needed for this:

(When pasting in your browser, leave off the ?" .)

But what exactly is the Ultimate Question to Life The Universe and Everything? Oldbot may need to ask the Earth.

Hang on, where are the mice?

Just ask Marvin.

Saw the punchline coming by panel 3. Maybe the question is “How many IQ points does Brewster have?”

“How many roads must a man walk down?”

What is the number between the sixth set of twin primes?

If he can’t remember the question, then he should just throw in the towel.

When Oldbot was built, Dr Mel thought he would Never need more than 64K of Memory.

42 + 17i + 700j + 99k

It’s confusing when you ignore the irrational part of the answer.

The question and answer are mutually exclusive. Both cannot exist together in the same universe.
