How many roads must a man walk down Before you call him a man? How many seas must a white dove sail Before she sleeps in the sand? Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind
Yes, and how many years must a mountain exist Before it is washed to the sea? And how many years can some people exist Before they're allowed to be free? Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head And pretend that he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind
Yes, and how many times must a man look up Before he can see the sky? And how many ears must one man have Before he can hear people cry? Yes, and how many deaths will it take 'til he knows That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind

C.: Hello, all. Welcome to the year 2030. My distant cousin from another planet, ELAC and I put our considerable brain power together and invented a time machine. Now, I get to see what has happened to all my friends.
I’ll start with T. Puppy Katt. Her mom and dad, d.c. scot and his wife, Eudora, took her to a trainer. This trainer discovered her talents, and she became somewhat of a celebrity. She was the first dog ever to perform a quadruple flip in the air and then slam dunk a tennis ball. She traveled the world doing this in exhibitions, until she was too old to perform. She’s now retired and living on a ranch with her human mom and dad.
Her dad, d.c. scot became a best-selling author. He wrote two series of books, and is now collaborating with his editor and another friend who is also an author on a third series of books. Each has a unique talent to contribute to this endeavor: d.c. supplied medical knowledge, which has become popular (more on that in a minute); his editor is a college professor who is well-versed in many subjects; and the other author has a public relations firm that advertises and promotes the series of books for all three.
Okay, why is medical knowledge now at the forefront of everyone’s minds? Well, in 2027, there was another pandemic, much like the one in 2020. With almost the whole globe in a long-lasting war, the regular medical people were at odds with each other, so no one wanted to work with other countries. This was about the time that my human mom, Hortense, found out how my dad, Horace, could afford so many supposed vacations.
Horace did own a landscaping company, which he sold at a handsome price. However, it was a chemical that he developed that killed insects without harming the environment that led to all the trips. Unlike many other chemicals that make this claim, this chemical was 98% effective. Hortense wanted to travel, and Horace wanted to distribute his new chemical to other nations to help them overcome pestilence problems. So, the CDC and agriculture division of the U.S. government sponsored him traveling the world and distributing this chemical. Hortense didn’t know that was what he was doing, because they always went on cruises to distribute the chemical, per the deal Horace worked out with the government. It would have been faster to do this traveling by plane, but Horace want Hortense to relax and enjoy herself. However, when the new illness caused a world-wide pandemic, Horace came clean with my human mom. There is a reason for this.
Hortense and d.c.’s wife, Eudora, are scientists. Horace thought that if he, d.c., Eudora and Hortense put their heads together, they may come up with a cure for the disease. They did, but traveling was now out of the question with all the restrictions and uneasiness going on in the world. They needed a way to distribute this drug to other countries, as well as those outside of their immediate vicinity in this country. That’s where T. Puppy, ELAC and I come in.
ELAC and I have spaceships that don’t run on fuel from this planet. T. Puppy is a celebrity, and everyone wants to see her perform. She got back in shape and ELAC and I transported her around the globe, under the pretense of her performing for the soldiers and the sick people in the hospitals. We’ve gotten the new medicine to sixty-five percent of the globe but…
d.: Well, that’s all the time we have for today, folks. Please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.E.’s Korner.
