1) Ladies and Gentleman, The Singing Pencils! or 2) When Pencils Attack!
So if four pencils w/erasers looked good, 77 would look even better. At least that's what I was thinking as I was crafting up an idea for the group, "Looking close... on Friday!" with the theme "Eraser". After I organized the pencils into neat rows, my first thought was that they looked like some kind of choir; yeah a choir, that would be good, "The Singing Pencils", I liked that. Looked like this week was going to be a piece of cake. Then, without warning and quite unexpectedly, this innocent assemblage of pencils started to look like your typical alien invasion and I could hear one proclaiming, "Planet Earth, Resistance is Futile" I'm sure the pencil heard that line while monitoring our airwaves and for the life of me I can't place the line, Star Trek, Dr. Who, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, OK, maybe that line is used a lot, maybe even by you and me at different times. Perhaps it originated in Arthur J. Burks’s (1930) Monsters of Moyen, I don't know. All this led me to my current dilemma of what to title this group of pencils (w/erasers of course because that's the theme). It was about this time that the thought bubbles popped into my head and here we are! I will leave the final decision to the viewer, I just can't decide...
BTW: Do you know how to stop an invasion of alien pencils?
