B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for April 12, 2023

I had to look up Epcot.

Metal clubs and dimpled balls in the stone age. The B.C. universe is a fickle one.

How’s that fast service for you?

No, I ordered Titleist? Did the delivery get mixed up again?

It’s a special Easter egg that was poorly “delivered” … and late.

:-D he sure looks good with this posture and expression on his face.

What’s his name again? He’s not Peter and not Clumsy- that’s as far as I can remember.

Epcot was originally conceived by Walt Disney during the early development of Walt Disney World, as an experimental planned community that would serve as a center for American enterprise and urban living. Known as “EPCOT”, an acronym for Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, the idea included an urban city center, residential areas, industrial areas, schools, and a series of mass transportation systems that would connect the community. After Disney’s death in 1966, the “EPCOT” concept was abandoned, as the company was uncertain about the feasibility of operating a city.

When Amazon delivers they just drop it and walk away. They don’t even knock on your door.

She ordered a golf ball, in a minute you will get a visit from the golf club and it’s nothing like the mickey-mouse club.

There was a similar globe at Montreal Expo 1967. It’s still there and is used as a museum dedicated to the environment.

Same for the building called Habitat, which was considered a model of apartment building styles of the future. Still exists and still operating, but have not heard of attempts to duplicate its unique style and construction anywhere.

That’s unfortunate because what is being built in central VA now looks a great deal like ‘early prison’ architecture. Slab panels in dark red, black, white, gray, offset with dull steel or aluminum rails and trim, no balconies. All that’s needed are window bars to complete the ensemble. UGLY!!

Why is the golf ball egg shaped?

Never heard of Epcot??? Fortunately there was no reference to the big metal globe that stood at entrance to the 1962 Worlds Fair. It still stands in Flushing NY.

A near miss

That’s the Wish.com Epcot. :P

Too bad it wasn’t successful. It sure was more attractive than new housing developments I see going up now

The Disney kid in me is grinning at this

Amazon delivers, indeed, once the dough is put through.

Understood, but D- on my funny scale. Unless, perhaps it’s dimples made it easier for Disney to roll it to it’s mounting venue.

I alway thought they needed a golf club next to the Epcot ball. Yip yip yip yip yip

FUN!

It’s a small world after all.

Epcot would be very old for them. Might be ruins.
