Foray into Fan Fic



March 17, 2019

Every time I see Daleks shooting at people on Doctor Who, I think of the Doctor telling the people who are firing back, “Aim for the eye spot!” Of course, nobody can hit it.

Then I think of Queequeg, from Moby Dick, who could hit a whale’s eye with his harpoon.

Maybe I’ll write a Fan Fiction story, wherein the Doctor picks up Queequeg and lets him do his stuff.


(Fun Fact: In Microsoft Word, Dalek is not flagged as a misspelling, but Queequeg is. So are the people who set up the Word program more familiar with Doctor Who than with Moby Dick?)
