I think a caption contest would be appropriate. I'll start.

I'd never heard of the "Wayback Machine" unless it was being run by Mr. Peabody. What a cool resource!

Your Google-fu is greater than mine.

When your cable doesn't have a sailing channel, you go sailing alone.

When you go sailing alone, you set your autopilot.

When you set your autopilot, you fall asleep.

When you fall asleep, your boat runs into an island.

When your boat runs into an island, it gets eaten by the island.

Don't let your boat get eaten by an island!

"Approximately 2 weeks after planting a keelboat, the sailboat sprouts forth. At first, just a tiny masthead appears, followed by a bow pulpit and pushpit. In about another 2 months this one will be ready to be picked, crated and shipped to some lucky sailor."
