Yes, I'm a slacker. I skipped a few days of posting in favor of sleep, house cleaning, and baking cookies. Get over it.
Luckily I resurfaced in time to read about this ever so awesome complete-ish Futurama time line over at I Heart Chaos. Clearly someone has an expensive DVD box set and a lot of time on their hands, but it works out for the benefit of all of us lazier geeks who need a good reference source.
A few dates near and dear to my fangirl heart:
July 9, 1947: Emerging from a time-warp, the Planet Express ship crash-lands near Roswell, New Mexico.
2008: Stop ‘n’ Drop becomes America’s favorite suicide booth.
2200s: The Star Trek cast do some musical reunions, but the guy who plays Scotty has trouble yodeling so he is replaced by Welshy.
2620: To end that stupid joke once and for all, Uranus is renamed.
~1,000,000,000,002,000: Al Gore, Fry, Deep Blue, Stephen Hawking, Michelle Nichols, and Gary Gygax finish playing Dungeons & Dragons.
Now wasn't that worth the wait?

Ah yes,...but in ending the joke, Uranus is renamed to Urectum -- which just begs for another 2620 years of jokes...that *never* get old.
:P
