Anton's Video Diary 2

  Halloween afternoon

  "Uh, hello again . . . This is Dr. Anton Yakushev. Today I will continue with my progress in documenting another successful time travel event. That is, I should say, I have moved beyond transporting an inanimate stone. That is, yesterday, I transported a full bottle of diet soda in my stationary machine. Today, I will duplicate that success.

  "Once again, I have synchronized all time-keeping devices, and once again, I will be transporting the full soda bottle and a wristwatch through time – as per last time. That is, I am hopeful that it will work this time – I have corrected the faulty cooling system that caused the last abortion to occur . . . I mean postponement of course – and not . . . never mind . . . . Uh, where was I? Ahh, yes, I need to synchronize my various devices . . . there you see my digital wall clock which I have set to 3:12 PM, and you can see the video camera time is the same, as is my wristwatch and the one in the experiment. I will count down to 3:13 PM, which will be the start up time . . . in five, four, three, two, one – What? Why didn't it . . . . Oh, the DNA stabilizer chamber is empty – yes, that's right; it needs to be filled again . . . every bloody time it seems! Oops, sorry for the language . . ."
