Strange Brew by John Deering for November 14, 2011

Um…..John, what are we looking at?

Unitl the next “must have” gadget comes along.

So THAT is what yesterday’s caveman was introducing.

I still don’t know what we’re looking at.

Nicely explained. That was my take on it, as well.

JackButler’s got it. It’s a good point too. How often have we heard someone say something like that. BTW, I read that astronomers estimate there are more stars in the visible universe than there are grains of sand on all of earth. Think about it. Too bad the galaxy isn’tbetter drawn or this one would go on my door. One other thing – we are nearer to the edge of the galaxy than the center.

We’ve been mobile since day one……………….

More specifically, it’s a rendition of our Milky Way galaxy that takes about 100,000 light years to travel across. Now, what was that again about about an infinitesmally small mobile device being the createst creation in the universe??

Thanks for the explanation, Jack. I figured the galaxy out, but couldn’t put it together with the caption to make sense. Now it’s all clear. Like the Milky Way.

I believe the universe is quite mobile what with rotation and such. I think someone’s “mobile device” wasn’t all that original. I still miss Steve though.

you are somewhere in that galaxy

my wallpaper is a Hubble image of a galaxy. the colors are amazing.

The galaxiies, nebulas, novas,: they’re awesome.

That is my take, too. ;-) I thought it was pointing to the egocentric and self-important ideology that so many people in our world share… kind of sad, really.

@ Sylvia Wulf, I see that we have more toons in common. I’m a lazy gardener but I love my grapefruit and orange trees and use as much as I can, and I tried twice to grow limes, because they are a much longer harvest time (even used floodlights for freezing nights, but they die). I would love to use all my peel and seeds as compost/mulch but they are too hard to integrate into my hard soil. I have landscapers who pull weeds and blow away debris, but are no use otherwise, and at 74, I am healthy from good semi-organic foods, but addicted to toons and TV ;-)

Until I read the comments, I wasn’t sure if this was a galaxy or a toilet bowl.

it means that anything that man creates is nothing compared to the creation of the universe
