Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I wonder if I could get UPS to issue a tracking number for my kids' shoes. Then I could just use the Internet to find them instead of having to search around the house.

RFID, dude.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I am totally putting a RFID/GPS chip in my glasses.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I thought RFID was the mark of the beast. I can't keep up any more.

Trust my rage

I just used the internet to find out what was on my porch.

This happened too me once and I was home all day. I thought it was so cool.

The mark of the beast is WalMart™.

RFID is just the ink.

A quantum leap or so in satellite technology and we can use it to find out who's ringing the doorbell.

That's why I find it so funny. I'm sure the DoD inventors of the WWWnever thought it would be so mundane.

And then it's only a quick technological hop to tying in a death ray and blasting their sorry butt.

Then I can go home.
