"Vampire or Zombie Turkeys? Isn't that kind of invoking the wrath of whatever screwy power controls this place? I'm soooo getting out of here before Christmas comes."

"And yet none showed up," said Janet. "So apparently it didn't invoke anything's wrath. What's your dire prediction on Christmas?"

"This place? I don't know. Stuffed robotic bunny pretending to be the Grinch? Gremlins dressing up like elves? Something weird is bound to happen with this place."

Suddenly Marty's cell phone, which has been sitting on the table starts to vibrate, spark and then smoke. He pokes at it to make sure it doesn't catch on fire.

"Like that."

"Something weird always happens here," says Janet. She shrugs. "We deal and move on to the next unusual ocurrence. though gremlins dressing up like elves woudl be weirder than usual."

"Weird." Janet frowns at the cell phone. "Just keep it away from the books, okay?"

Marty pokes at the cell phone a couple more times. "I took it back with me to Pittsburgh and used it a couple of times when I was there. I guess it didn't like going back in time to 1995."

"Time travel?" asks Janet. "Angela's from 1995? That's weird. So how were the 90's?"

"Yeah 1995. I was expecting a lot of science fiction special effects when we left, but we just got on the train and that was pretty much it for my time travel experiment," Marty says with a shrug. "The 90's were exactly how I remembered it. Lots of flannel and grunge music."
