K9 of Doctor Who

It's Fiction Friday again boys and girls. Now I'm going to wax poetic about K9.

K9 is just the sort of robot I would actually shell out some cold, hard cash on. Or accept as a gift by a space-station scientist returning home to planet Earth, as the Fourth Doctor did in Doctor Who. K9 is the Doctor's personal robot. He ran down stats for him. Played chess with him. Quipped with him. (I absolutely refuse to harbor a robot without a sense of humor.)He even had a laser beam that came right out of his nose. Now that, boys and girls, is a good dog.

Doonesbury Comic Project Robot

Guess what guys and dolls. It's Fiction Friday. Some of the sexiest robots you will ever see are, unfortunately, confined to the screen and the page. The little guy appearing lately in the Doonesbury comic is not one of those sexy 'bots. It looks kind of like a bug. Cute, but more in a Mini Me kind of way. To check it out, go here.
