- Summary
- Pathe synopsis: But we’ve got a computer, even if we don’t need it. We enter a world of frenetic fluctuations controlled by a Random Selector that Emett calls his Eeney-meeney-miney-mo unit on which gambling is prohibited. Emett’s preposterous computer uses measuring tapes and woodpeckers with their beaks in playing cards as a card punch reader. The information feed gets a supply of buns and heavy water goes down the brain drain. You can imagine the rest.
