Cycle Of Time
The older we get, the faster time passes us by, until it inevitably leaves us in the dust.
(This comic strip was previously published on October 25, 2010.)
Debbie Adams found Fraz’s missing fan mail and presented it to him in Fraz’s Fan Mail painting.

Discussion (334) ¬
Only time will tell if he’ll ever get a satisfactory answer. 🙂
Ouch, now your just ticking off the time puns.
One should never tick off time as you don’t know how it’ll react.
Sure you do…it makes you old out of revenge.
Red.
Well then that’s a very good reason not to anger time!
Time would say, sooner or later, it’s inevitable.
Oh my head, I need winegums. You lost me at atoms!
Wine gums are brain food, so perhaps they’ll help.
I will have some wine gums too Loon 🙂
Are you two trying to out-brain me?
If we all put our minds together…Hmm. Andro and Loon, are you in?
Red.
I sure am Red 🙂
Three against one isn’t fair.
You’re going to have to get a couple more.
Thanks Androgoth, I have wine and gum too 🙂 LOL!!
Lovely let’s have the wine first and then chew the rest of the evening over with lashings of wine gums 🙂
Do pass me a goblet, Andro, please.
Red.
Hey I have goblets of wine for everyone, of course Fraz is having a choco milkshake but we can all have some wicked wine and a really good snack time while we think of a game to play 🙂
The last time I went home for a visit, my daughter brought home a bottle of chocolate wine…
Red.
my head hurts too loon, pass me the wine gums.
We may need a lot of wine gums today.
I hope that they are juicy one’s 🙂
Extra IQ-juicy wine gums!
I bags the red ones
I prefer the white ones!
I like the green and black ones best 🙂
I never used to eat the black ones thinking they were licorice. But when I found out they were blackcurrant, I tried them and now like them.
I also like the red one’s and a red and black together are even better 🙂 Okay enough chat on the wine gums, here have a pancake with extra chocolate topping 🙂
I like the orange ones, too!
Okay, we can have some pancakes now, maybe with wine gum syrup too?
I love all of them!
I’ll have a pancake too.
I guess it’s official. It’s pancake feast time again.
And you know what that means Binky, there will be a toasted marshmellow and choco surprise for anyone that can find the yellow wine gum, it’s been hidden so it’s a bit like a treasure hunt 🙂
I’m a professional pirate treasure hunter, so I should be able to find that wine gum!
If anyone can find that yellow wine gum it’s you Captain Fraz of the Pirate Ship Chocopops 🙂 ‘X’ usually marks the spot so try there first 🙂
I was thinking maybe Y marked the spot this time, since it’s a yellow wine gum.
Wow that is your excellent logic again fraz now ‘Y’ didn’t I think of that one? 🙁
It doesn’t matter as long as we’re the ones to find that hidden wine gum!
Hey haven’t you found it yet? 🙁 I was hoping that you would have stumbled upon it by now Fraz but never mind here is a big helping of Pancakes fresh from the pan 🙂
Never mind that long face, Andro. Join me and Fraz in a Mongo Bongo Booboo Buster Burger with chococherry sauce. It will heighten your joy! 🙂
I think we might never find that special yellow wine gum if we keep eating so much!
Well it is a bit bigger than your average wine gum so it should be easily found, just keep looking near to Genie’s bottle, oop’s I think that I might have given away the location there Fraz 🙁
I found it!!
With a little help from you!
Fraz, all you need to know is that it’s time to eat some chocolate.
It’s always chocolate time!
Then why did you ask?
Red.
Yes, we don’t need to ask the time if it’s always chocolate time. Here Fraz have a chocolate covered wine gum.
It’s always chocolate time, but I wanted to know if it was also lunch time.
So, spam time is designate?
Red.
Every minute of every day is set out for chocolate covered wine gums, toasted marshmellows, yummy pancakes, spam-burgers, ice cream jelly doughnuts and triple tangocakes, and time for lots more treats too 🙂
Well, then it should never matter what time it is!!
Red.
Come to think of it, you’re right!
I think you’ve been hanging out with us Wombies too much, Andro!
Well now that you come to mention it my waistline has increased a lot, it must be all those pancakes and wine gums 🙂
I could lend you my Diet Adviser invention if you’d like to use it.
I think it could end up with the same fate as the last one so i had better just cut down on the pancakes for a while, mind you I will probably replace them with some spam-burgers and a healthy supply of chocolate cake 🙂 Thank you for mentioning that one though Binky you are very generous with your technology 🙂
I like to help! Even though my Diet Adviser didn’t exactly get rave reviews. Perhaps you can try food visualization instead. You just think about the food, instead of eating it. That one didn’t go over very well with Winky, either, though.
Maybe he needs imagination enhancement.
Red.
Winky needs something enhanced!
That invention could be the answer to global obesity, if only we could get it to work on Winky first and then I think that you really have something with that idea 🙂
The problem is that Winky hasn’t been too receptive about trying the revised version of the Diet Adviser due to his last experience with it. I believe I need a new
guinea pigvolunteer.Yes I agree, now who will we choose first? 🙂
I suppose that means you’re not volunteering.
Well spotted Binky 🙂 I was thinking that perhaps Twink might like to try it out? 🙂 Mind you she will be too busy in the kitchen I think and she’s quite slim so not a lot of point, maybe someone else will take on the challenge 🙂
I may test fly rockets, but I’m not insane. I would never dare suggest Twink test out the Diet Adviser. Certain death would be sure to follow.
Yes, that is what i figured 🙁 Best get our thinking caps on and come up with a few volunteers 🙂
After that rocket crash, volunteer testers have been much more difficult to find.
Yes maybe we need to use the wooden mallet on them first and then strap them in, that could be one way of solving the dilemma 🙂
That would be one way to recruit some additional testers.
Fraz what is lunch time? omg i didnt know there is a time for eating…
Lunch time is when you take a break from eating to eat!
Now you’re talking let’s grab some lunch and then have a snack in between tea and supper too 🙂
Okay, but can we have another snack between the snack and tea time?
But we have to have chocolate cookie with our tea.
We can have cookies with our tea, but we need some before tea time snack, too!
Yes Fraz I have a box full of choco cookies here and they are the quadruple choc one’s that you enjoy the most 🙂 Here tuck in 🙂
Mmm! They’re really good, Andro!
I knew that you would enjoy them Fraz 🙂
🙂
Thank you for posting my painting on your post. 🙂
You’re welcome Deb, it’s a fine addition to the gallery.
Yes it is Deb, here have a juicy lemon pancake with chocovision surprise 🙂 You will soon see that it tastes really nice 🙂
Mmmm. Chocolemon is fab.
Red.
Just tasted them…Mmmm 😉
Hey you haven’t tasted the lime and macaroon yet 🙂
Well pass one over to me Andro! :-)….nom, nom, nom. Yep…there good too.
Thanks Andro…Nom, nom, nom. You’re right. delicious.
Deb all your wombat posts are too funny and cute ..just love them keep them coming i love this wombat fun we have ..
much love 🙂
You can never have too many Wombies! Or Wombie posts.
Or too many pancakes, wine gums, chocolate and spam-burgers either 🙂
Especially if you’re a Wombie! Or a Wombie twin or triplet!
That’s right, I’m the triplet. No wonder Wombie fill my mind.
That happens to people sometime. I don’t there’s any cure.
Who’d want to be cured of Wombie love?
I heard it drives some people crazy!
I need a lot more wine gums
So do I! I’ve only had one bag of wine gums today!
Thanks Soma! Wombie make me happy. Wombie make everybody happy!
Reminds me of the old Chicago song. “Does anyone really know what time it is? Does anyone really care”
YES…or I wouldn’t ask what time it was.
I liked that song!
Me, too.
Red.
It reminds me of the Ying Tong Song too 🙂
I just listened to it on YouTube. I’ve never heard that one before!
And there’s even a pre-chipmunk chipmunk part!
Now that bit I have not seen or heard so it will be a trip over to Youtube whenever I get the opportunity 🙂
It was the video at:
http://youtu.be/Nebe1zuEtbc
It doesn’t really have any video, though, but those high-pitched voices near the end sounded like the Chipmunks to me.
Thank you for the link Peter and I will be going over there later to check it out 🙂
I think the static picture of the Goons is great on that one, and it was good to hear that old song again 🙂
Thank you for the link my great friend 🙂
You’re welcome, Andro. It wasn’t too hard to find. I don’t believe I’ve ever heard of the Goons, either.
No it is a trio from way back in the fifties but they were very popular in the UK 🙂
I’m not sure if they were ever big over in North American. I don’t remember them at least. Might have been a little before my time.
HA!
Binky must have one incredibly complicated watch.
🙂
And very confusing, too!
Did he buy it at the Tesla coil store?
Red.
No, I made my own atomic clock watch. It’s a bit large, but very accurate.
I love atomic clocks. We had a display of them where I worked. No two had the same time. It was fabulous.
Red.
No two had the same time? Atomic clocks are supposed to be highly accurate!
From what we were told, they were 100% accurate. They just happened to have been set by people who were not so accurate…
Red.
Well that explains it. People are rarely accurate.
Despite their claims to the contrary.
Red.
It’s all about good guess-work Red 🙂
we should always buy watches or anything and everything from smilimg emoticons from the television tele shopping prog.
see how no matter what you buy from them you will always keep grinning 24/7
Well they’ll always keep smiling at least!
My grandmother did that for about three years before we finally unplugged her credit card…
Red.
Those tele-marketers know what buttons to push.
Me, too. One for English. Two for sales. Key in the item number….
Red.
It’s happy happy shopping time time time and happy shopping time again 🙂 something like that anyway? 😉
Maybe I could sell my rockets online. . .
Yes the Russians will be eager to get their hands on your technology and they are a Lada fun too 🙂
I hope they’ll be Russian to buy them!
Well they have Niva been tested before but I think that they will be schnapped up in no time at all 🙂
I guess the answer really would be relative…
Time is always relative, depending on how fast you’re moving compared to the reference point.
Okay, I won’t ask Binky what time it is ever. Bwahahahahahaha.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
Me neither!
We always get an extra=timestrial treat when we do though as our Binky has always been top of the class in Astrophysics, Chemistry, Pancakeology and Wine Gumstrials, actually he is top in anything technically challenging and some of these categories are difficult to get into at the best of times 🙁
Yeah, you’re right, but sometimes Binky is just BORing!
Hey Fraz you won’t be saying that when the rocket is completed and you are eating all of that Dark Matter on offer 🙂
Okay, you’re right again, Andro. Sheesh!
Hey never mind Fraz just grab one of these Syrup and Chocolate Fuzzy Wuzzy Pancakes it’s a new recipe straight out of Winkys Fangtastic Food Factory 🙂
Winky has gone crazy with new stuff in his chocolate factory! I hope he doesn’t stop.
I have handed him a recipe booklet of ten thousand new sweetly offered desserts so if he wants t try them out, we will be eating new-fangled treats for weeks and weeks to come 🙂 Maybe even years 🙂
I think we need to visit Winky’s factory and taste test those new desserts!
I have our bags packed Fraz, we could be there a long time 🙂
Winky has some guest rooms in the factory, so we can maybe live there for a while!
Blimey another logical thought Fraz you are so intelligent, it makes no wonder that you are fed up of going to school, you are getting brighter than the teachers 🙂
That wouldn’t be hard!
Oops, don’t tell them I said that! They might make me walk the plank!
Yea I wouldn’t ask him either if I knew the response would get that.
Maybe Binky did that because he doesn’t like to be asked.
That’s a long winded answer!
And he didn’t even tell me the time!
Good job it wasn’t a trip to the dentist or it would definitely have been two thirty 🙁
*giggles*
It might have been good to miss the dentist, though!
lol
Maybe by the time he said all the too you he forgot your question.
I think I almost forgot my question!
What was it again, your question I mean? 🙂
If I had the time, I’d try and remember it for you!
Was that the question I thought it was something else? 🙂 Here have another bongoburger with extra cheese 🙂
No that wasn’t the question. That was the question about the question that you asked the question about. I think.
Oh, just give me the burger, please!
Yes, stop asking question and just eat. My ice cream is melting…lets make chocolate milkshakes.
That’s a lot more fun than answering questions!
No more questions it’s picnic time 🙂
And chocolate time, too!
When I say picnic, it means a chocolate picnic time with lots of everything that we enjoy the best, so there are plenty of pancakes and marshmellows too 🙂
I really like those kind of picnics!
Yes and every serving is something sweet so we can’t lose 🙂
As long as we’re not attacked by Zombies!
No Fraz they are safely locked up in those cages, so we can feel at ease while we tuck into our goodies 🙂
Yay! Picnics without zombies are a lot of fun!
I think I have Binky’s problem :-/
I wouldn’t consider it a problem. I would say we just have a unique perspective of time.
Fraz got caught in a time warp!
But can he dance to it?
Red.
Perhaps Fraz should have jumped to the left.
And then stepped to the right, of course 😉
Red.
Yes, we’ll keep him hopping.
Do Wombies dance?
Red.
They dance better when there are fresh pancakes waiting to be to served 🙂
What about toast?
Red.
Only for French toast with extra maple syrup!
I make my French Toast with coconut milk and flakes and shaved chocolate…is that as good as maple syrup?
Red.
I think that would pass the test! But I’ll have to try it to be sure.
I had no idea Wombies were such breakfast connoisseurs.
Red.
If that means we like a good breakfast, then yeah!
Or for chocolate truffle treats!
Red, your pancakes sound insanely delicious! Move over, Wombies!
Yeah, she should call them Redcakes or something!
Or Red’s pancake and ice cream wine gum burgers 🙂
That would be good, too!
I agree, she must have us over.
The Wombie triplets are coming, Red! Look out!
*Hauls out larger griddle and double spatula* Who is going to help shave chocolate?
Red.
Me me me!
Do you need one of the children to show you how?
Red.
I can help him Red 🙂 lol
Yeah, I think we can handle anything to do with chocolate. And if we mess up, we’ll eat the evidence!
We will eat anything that gets in our way, well just as long as it tastes good that is 🙂
Yeah, so anything chocolate better not get in our way!
Those pancakes will be eaten too so they had better watch out we mean business 🙂
Pancakes fear us!
I think our Vampy staus scares most of them away, but we still have a good supply so we can enjoy eating pancakes until we are full 🙂
Status too 🙂
Yeah, pancakes are probably afraid of us as Vampires. But that won’t stop us from gobbling them all up!
VERY very Funny !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
Binky and Frazzy 🙂 aww lessons o Time 🙂
Nice art work by Deb :)))))
Lovely Lovely 🙂
Have a Great One guys 🙂
Cat x
And the lesson I learned was, don’t ask Binky the time!
🙂 🙂 🙂
Just ask for pancakes ………
Or a Nutty Buddy
I’d be a lot better off asking Winky for those!
Winky shares?
Red.
Winky shares everything! All the stuff from his chocolate factory is free-all-you-can-eat!
Oh, I got it! I thought you were talking about everything else…like wine gums and spam…
Red.
Winky’s factory also makes wine gums and fudge, now. But not Spam.
I hope Winky is thinking about making some rhubarb crumble muffins with vanilla ice cream filling 🙂
I think vegetables are banned from Winky’s factory!
Fraz, are you going to have spam pizza with extra spam at the food counter in your Pirate store.
Of course! Pirate Pizza should be very popular!
How about some Captain burgers with extra floggings of chocolate? 🙂
They sound good, too!
They taste even better with Winky’s special blend of spambo sauces 🙂 Mmmmmm
Winky knows how to make things taste extra special!
You’re telling me Fraz, Winky is a genius with sauces and ALL good foodstuffs 🙂
Winky’s had a lot of practice eating! So he knows what’s good.
Thanks Cat ♥ xo
Have a lovely rest of the day eve night friends 🙂
big hearts xoxoxoxooxoxoxoxo
WhatEVER time it is!
iT’S PANCAKE AND CHOCOLATE TIME ALWAYS FRAZ ….:) REMEMBER 🙂
That’s true, so I guess it doesn’t matter. Let’s eat!!
It’s Canada Day next so how about another party? 🙂
Of course! We wouldn’t miss out on that! Everyone, to my island for the Canada Day long weekend! Free root beer and fireworks and chocolate and red and white strawberry pancakes shaped like Canada!
Uncle Andro told me your holding my choco bones that he left for me. I’d like them now.
You can have them, Cici! They’re doggy chocolate bones, so they’re okay for you!
Cici loves choco bones, maybe some Canada shaped one’s would be good? 🙂
Sure! And some for Cassie, too!
Yes choco bones for all 🙂
Even the Skeletons?
Especially the skeletons as most are being supplied by them, luckily we get to eat all the candy lookalikes so that’s a relief 🙂
Yeah, I don’t think I’d like to eat a real skeleton!
No way 🙁 Too icky
The correct question is “What time does your watch say it is?” Specificity is the rule.
Red.
Speci-whatsy?
The only rule in my home is…Specificity is the rule.
Red.
No rules for bedtime?
No rules for eating veggies?
I want to live in your home!
No rules for all of that. There is a bedtime alarm at our house. You have to go to your room, but you do not have to go to sleep.
As for food, I make it fun. We have fewer and fewer issues with people who do not eat things here.
Red.
I like the no rules at bedtimes Red 🙂
I happen to be rather partial to the “do not have to go to sleep” portion of that rule.
Red. *wicked grin*
Yes adopt me too Red 😉
Adopt me!!!
The top bunk is yours!
Red.
Yay!!!
I’ve never seen a trio of bunks before 🙂
I’ll get Genie to add an extra bunk or two!
I think about fifteen will be better 🙂
Okay! I think Genie better make that room a little bigger, too!
Red Adopt me to!!! please
i meant too
Room for everyone!
Red.
Yaaaay 🙂
Red is going to need a bigger bedroom. Genie!!
Or a bigger Genie bedroom 🙂
Or maybe Genie could just make us all smaller!
It shan’t be all that tough…We will just knock out the wall between the children’s room and my room. We could probably put in about 18-20 bunks between the two rooms. The way the ceiling is cut, we could have at least three triple deckers.
And then there is still the school room and the camper…that is another 16…
Who all is coming again?
Red.
Just about everyone who hears about your special pancakes and French toast!
I’ll knock out the wall!
I am certain the children would love it. They have been asking for another set of bunk beds in their room, just for when others come to stay. Little V would be so thrilled.
Red.
This is going to be a weekend to remember and not just for all those yummy pancakes either 🙂
Yeah, it’ll be a good weekend. But I hope all of us invading your house doesn’t scare Little V!
I think Binky just said something very very very very deep about something like time here….
HOW IS FRAZ !!!!
poor baby i think he needs some very strong winegum and chocolate therapy 😮
I think you’re right! Binky confused my brain, and I need some chocolate and wine gums to make me better!
And if he has the extra-IQ wine gums, maybe you can understand what he ask you…
Red.
Maybe, but I won’t count on it. If he’s eating those extra-IQ wine gums too, then his IQ will still be a lot more than mine!
There are questions without answers.
Binky don’t ask kids so serious questions. For them time is: time for eating, sleeping, playing”. And it’s all, what they should know about time 😉
Yes I know what you mean sabina and it works great for all the BIG kids too, I should know 🙂 lol
Yeah, play time, eat time, sleep time, that’s all you have to know!
Sometimes we should just enjoy life 🙂
I do that all the time!
I think you should have a talk with Binky, Sabina!
Now for some more fun, now where is your Pirate ship Fraz it’s shiver me timbers time 🙂
It’s sailing to my island for the Canada Day party! You can’t miss that one, Andro!
I should have guessed it, thank you Fraz and I hope those zombies are still in the traps or our pancakes could be at risk 🙁
Genie told me those zombie traps are holding up well! So we shouldn’t have to worry about our pancakes. Or our brains!
Great, here have a pancake and a creamy waffle, they are really nice with strawberries on top too so help yourself to those Fraz 🙂
I will! And I added some maple syrup, too!
Absolutely 🙂 Mmmmm
About philosophy? 😛 I’m kidding, I got you 🙂
Well if you talked to Binky about philosophy, he probably wouldn’t talk to me about time!
Thinking about time *ow!* hurts my head.
Have some chocolate and wine gums and you’ll feel better.
Here Jack of Gulls, have a few wine gums and a spambo-wambo-burger that will definitely make you feel better 🙂
Poor Fraz. It was time for him to get away from Binky.
Yeah, I should’ve figured that out myself!
Hey Chris are you joining in on our party at Fraz’s island, it’s going to be a wicked one 🙂
Don’t worry my Space has not been deleted I am just experiencing some glitches on it 🙁 Hopefully you will be able to get to mine from this comment if it posts properly but at the moment I am having problems getting into my own Space 🙁 Grrrr here grab a pancake and add some extra choco topping I could do with some at this point in the day…
Androgoth
Ah!! I was just about to mail you about your blog.
I hope things will work well soon Andro
everything is okay now Miss. Novia and thank you for asking 🙂
I’ve changed the links here to your new address, Andro. Hopefully you can get that mess straightened out without too much difficulty.
And I think it might be you who needs some extra pancakes and chocolate today!
Everything is okay on the andro53 comments now Peter and thank you for all of your help today my great friend 🙂 🙂
I didn’t do much, Andro, but you’re welcome anyway. Your Top Commenter link up top does actually point to your new address now.
Wow excellent and thank you for that Peter, I hope that your Canada Day has been a wickedly enjoyable one 🙂 I was watching the Final of the European Cup earlier and Spain won Italy by four goals to nil, a great display of football I can tell you 🙂 Have a wicked Monday too as it’s a holiday 🙂
I’m glad Sunday was a lot better than Saturday for you! Now no more website problems, okay?
Yes I copy that Peter 🙂
Time is obviously not on his side…
A lot of time was wasted listening to Binky try and explain it, though!
Okay time for more chocolate and wine gums, we need to save time by eating as many yummy chocs as possible and to try and find that yellow wine gum too 🙂
Yeah, we’ve got important stuff to eat and find! We don’t have any time to waste thinking!
I think I gave a clue as to where that yellow wine gum could be soooooo it is just a matter of finding it before a certain Genie gets a taste for them 🙂
Yep, I finally found it! Now I guess we can all share in eating it!
Jezz Binky!! please pity my little brain…I am not even half a year yet @.@ what are you talking about anyway?
I am sorry, Papoe. Perhaps the essence of time is not something young turtles like you contemplate, but I’ve always wondered about the true nature of time and what it means.
How could you be so smart Bink?
I eat a lot of wine gums. They’re brain food, at least for Wombies.
ahh… I can’t eat gum, I don’t have teeth to chew it 🙁
Wine gums aren’t really gum, Papoe. They’re much like ju-jubes if you know what they are. Or a firmer version of a gummy bear. They still might be hard for you to chew, though.
I agree with Binky! Gravitational time dilation and such are super wonky and interesting concepts. Also, it’s 1:39 PM if you’re still wondering, Fraz.
Are you sure about that time, Tyler? They just added a leap second. Now all my atomic clocks are inaccurate and need to be re-synced.
I could have used somem of those Nunchucks on my Space earlier, but hey that is on your last posting soooo let’s celebrate my new link with a round of pancakes 🙂
I’ll celebrate anything with pancakes, so sure!
Are we still celebrating Winky because I have just brought you a load of freshly made pancakes with sweetly added maple syrup and quad-choc toppings 🙂
As long as there are pancakes, we’ll be celebrating!
It hasn’t solved those stinking typos though 🙁 lol
Androgoth
Perhaps if you hit the computer harder with those nunchucks.
Great idea Binky, why is it that you are so clever 🙂
Wine gums. Wine gums are brain food, you know.
Yes being such a wickedly fine genius is hungry work 🙂
I will never aak Binky the time. And by the way. It took me forever to scroll down. 🙂
You have to burrow deep to get to the end of some of these comment threads! We have Wombies standing by willing to help.
Hey gooberandcindy you can take the lift down next time, if you are right handed just right click your mouse on the side bar and when the options appear click on bottom and it will zoom you to the commenting box 🙂 If you are left handed then it is a left click for the same scenario 🙂 I hope that helped a bit my friend? 🙂
He is way too smart for me!
Me too! That’s why I mostly ignore him.
But at least you understand the physics of time now Fraz. But how does daylight savings fit into the fabric of time & space? You forgot to ask Binky that…
All I know is that I wasted my time asking Binky! And I don’t know about that daylight savings stuff. I didn’t know you could save daylight.
Yes you just put it in a box & use it if you need to go to the toilet in the middle of the night.
I think I’d rather use it to have a snack in the middle of the night.
who knew Binky was so philisophical 🙂
I thought he was just confusing.
