Wallop (assuming the last word was supposed to be bang)

Or a finger straying...

Right on both counts - eyes not fully awake yet....

Pardon my ignorance, or old-fartness, or whatever, but what is Forever Autumn?

I just knew someone would respond to planet with Pluto, but how did we get from there to autumn?

hybrid transformer, used to separate and recombine the send and receive signals of telephones etc, that operate on two wires. So that the signal can pass through electronic communications equipment which only operate in one direction.

Shine on you crazy diamond

I think we all know diamonds are shiny... except baseball diamonds.

tangent:
Oh Mr. Game Warden, please tell me what season it is.
Why soitainly, son. It's baseball season. [tosses baseball]
Heheheheheheheh. [shoots baseball and runs after it, ad infinitum]

Rant:
I spent more time that I can to mention looking for the end of that cartoon so I could type out the whole list of things Elmer has been told he can shoot. It's just not on youtube. I thought I'd finally found it, but it cut off before that scene.

forget > android

As in Reyna, the android girl Kirk fell in love with and Spock told him in a meld to forget.

feelings > nothing

The obvious one was emotions, but I decided to go lyrical.

Archie => Jughead from the comic books.
could have gone bunker => Archie => Meathead, but thought that might be a bit obscure for our overseas mates.

I knew that, but then I work in a library.

I was about to explain it, but you already did.
