Shining Time Station

A children's TV show that originally premiered on PBS from 1989-1993, with Thomas the Tank Engine stories coupled with segments involving real-life actors. It was actually a very funny and well-done show for its time. Both George Carlin and Ringo Starr were even separately featured on the show as well, each playing train conductors.

As of this entry, reruns of the show can now be seen on the Disney Channel.
Shining Time Station was one of the most unique shows in the 90's, combining model animation with real-life actors. (It's also the only way you can see a family-friendly George Carlin.)

tortuga time

"I feel like I'm in the twilight zone"

"You're on tortuga time. Welcome to the suck"
An unavoidable phenomenon that prevents you from arriving at your destination on time. There is no stopping it and can only be accepted - it's going to happen. Even if you attempt to leave earlier, some greater force prevents you from being on time. Just accept the inevitable, you're on Tortuga Time.

Jennifer Time

The act of getting to your destination at your own pace, therefore never feeling like you are late or on time, you just get there when you get there. Jennifer Time usually ball parks arrival at 5-10 minutes late with no feelings of guilt being experienced by the offender. We just run on a more Universal clock. Most people on Jennifer Time will tend to be late unless it is something they are incredibly excited or serious about. Jennifer Timers will try to be to work on time, but, will be the ones to turn back towards home if they forgot something. They will also throw a curve ball at you and be early from time to time.
