Not everyone is important enough to have three meetings in a single day. You must be a real big shot!

As long as that 10 minutes doesn't turn in to pure Hell you'll get to work another day. Sounds like most jobs in 2018.

Sometimes I do get some satisfaction, 5.7 million people a day ride the subway, some of my work keeps them moving and informed.

The real question is if Jabberjaw's age comes before the era of the Jetsons or if they are contemporaries.

To put that in perspective, somewhere late in our 82nd year we turn 30,000 days old... and the Stones don't play Time is On My Side anymore.

While I was rummaging around, I found this 1956 prequel to the Jetsons done for Auto Safety.
They are in the year 2000, Oct. 5th to be exact, lol. The narrator is the actual guy that did the voice for George Jetson.

It's pure futurism. The Jetsons first aired in fall of 1962, 6 years later.

I wonder if the Queen of England actually believes in unicorns (cause of the King James version). When I was little I thought King James was a biblical king who didn't like the other bible, and was like "okay! that's cool, if he, like, knew Jesus", but, no, he was just a douchebag.

You make me feel inferior, I'm stuck with cheap boxed wine. Being broke is fun, but then again, so is wine, even if it's pretty garbage.
