From the massive, finely-engineered conspiracy that hushed up the Kennedy assassinations, to this.

We must be out of practice.

[locked/work] Hurm.

Think fast.

Hurm. Hurmity hurm. HURM.

...now I have a head full of questions about neuroplasticity and flatlines and jammers and the Bug.

I know we have Dr. Frost and Dr. Baylor and Dr. Reyes and Dr. Ramachandran. But we need a damned neurologist. Of oourse, then she'd just want to poke me in the brains. Maybe nevermind.

Harpy, we're sending you back to school. Don't worry: El Jefe and I will make sure the government pays.

Even I won't eat these things.

So it's nice to know they have a job to do on this earth in spite of it.

(Special props to #7. Please note toupee.)

(Thanks to gerisullivan, even tho the WaPo is my local rag.)

Avast, vast, reluctance.

If I were in a different unit, I could be fighting pirates.

Also, there is stupid, and there is OMFG DID YOU LEAVE YOUR HEAD ON THE PILLOW WHEN YOU GOT OUT OF BED THIS MORNING?

Hey, Platypus!

A welcome distraction from the unpleasantness of the day:

New Kristin Hersh on the internets, donation model.

Don't say I never brought you anything!

Also, these doughnuts are lonely without you. So lonely. Guess I'll have to put them out of their misery now....

But for us, he'll make an exception.

Hey Platypus:

This is what you're getting for Easter.

(Not that I celebrate Easter. But it's an excuse.)

The spirochete is particularly adorable.

Pity the peasants can't afford these things.

Otherwise, under the circumstances, I'd recommend we all get togged up and go to the Equality Ball on Inauguration night.

So what shall we do on the 20th? Anything to keep us out of the limo traffic around the Hill...

That's me in the hat.

2008-11-24T01:41:43Z

You need me?

'Cause I was thinking of going home for the week.

Mom and Dad home, I mean. This weather is killing me.

Here's an idea:

2008-11-20T21:52:40Z

After work, let's all go to a club that's just like work!*

*Except that you have to pay a $750 minimum. Even my job doesn't have, er, incentives like that.

Who needs love when there's law and order?

2008-11-20T17:56:55Z

Yeah. I was wrong.

She's awesome, and my molecules will never be the same.

Guys, I have to go to the hospital now.

Tell Mom I'm sorry.

I'll call with details when I have some.

That's not the rabbit hole.

2008-11-16T18:11:11Z

I wouldn't dig a hole for Windows even to bury it.

(Yeah, I love this. But you knew I would.)

The most wonderful time of the year.

You scuffed my not-a-boy.

I'll let it slide this time, but if it happens too often I'm going to start charging attrition.

Ohgod, now he's got ME doing it.

Who needs a holiday?

2008-10-16T21:10:26Z

Some things are scary all year 'round.

(I do this because virtual pumpkin carving is no substitute for watching TV on our computers. Ahem.)

Well, it's in a good cause.
