Maybe call it Personal Assistant Automaton?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Can 'time machine' be made steampunkier? Like, say, "chronological locomotive'?
Oh yeah! Chronocomotive!

Jilli, how about Mechanical Personal Assistant?
Er ... no. Because WOW, could that be mis-interpreted.
Oh yeah! Chronocomotive!
I do like that.

I was just too lazy and undercoffeed to remember how to spell Personal Assistant Automaton as Tommyrot suggested.
Though now I want steampunk versions of Real Dolls.

A chronocomotive is cool because it's a steam-powered time-machine... on rails!
Huh. That would make folk music about hobos ridin' trains a lot... different.

Hee. We had to do some kind of line dance thing to that song in elementary school, and it HAUNTED me for YEARS. It ended up being one of the first songs I...ahemed...years later when that became available. Since I wasn't about to hunt it down on CD or anything. And had no idea who it was by, for a long long time. Or anything other than the lyrics "whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh, Montego Bay..."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
No, I'm right there with you.
