Aliens. Its Aliens that misplace the small little items that humans lose every day. Especially their keys, reading glasses, flame lighter thingys, torches, coats, hats and socks. Especially, socks. I hate when you lose a pair. Well, I lose whole pairs not half like humans do. That's why I don't wear socks.
But, you wonder where I am going with this...well, read on and you'll see.
I recall a day, in the olden days, very old and older, but, for Earth it was the late 1960s over in the USA. Me and the TARDIS had decided to try visit New York to see the Muppets. I am determine to land there and see the Muppets. Instead landing in the late 1970s I landed late 1960s. So, I missed it by a decade than. These days I miss by a hundred!
There was a brilliant show name Twilight Zone by some bloke name. . . I don't recall anyway I was lucky to view this episode they where editing. What they had was a show on time. My fave topic. Time! Anyway, they had a neat conception on each second. What they came up with was...did I ever mentioned how I adore this imagination of this man who made this episode.
When each second goes by in the future, it stops. Picture the next second is the future that your not in. Try to picture each second as the present as THAT second. So, the second aliens, I think that's what they called themselves. They had a mission was to place everything in place for the next second. You see they had to move objects so they exist to the next second world. Yea, second world. So, what happens they set EVERYTHING down but they are not so good with little detail objects. Like your keys, lighter thingys, socks etc. So, in that second your looking for an object that NEVER existed in that SECOND. They misplaced it. Eventually, they place some where you find it.
That's the shows subject about how you lost things.
