Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Gradually, the increasingly evil brain develops telepathic abilities and becomes able to control the mind of Dr. Patrick Cory,

Of course. Doesn't everyone know that if you take a brain out of a body and keep it alive, it will become telepathic. Hell, even a severed head that's kept alive will probably develope the ability to communicate telepathicly with any monsters that happen to be locked up nearby.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Clearly you're still paying for all the gelato and lovely scenery.

Yes, between that and the plague, the vacation is clearly over.

Well, now I'm completely unsupervised and proofreading documents about joint tenancy because I'm bored.

Okay, now I'm scared.

Of Nancy Reagan?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Okay, now I'm scared.

Of Nancy Reagan?

What crude line-art flash game is getting more search hits on Google than Kim Jong Il? It's called Line Rider, and Time.com reports that it has attracted a cult following worldwide:

Part Jackass stunt, part physics lesson, Line Rider encourages users to "draw" their own ramps, hills, and slopes with a pencil tool, then sends a virtual sledder (wearing a red scarf) along the route until he swoops, swerves and crashes. Build an elaborate enough course and you'll feel like a little kid playing in the snow again, zooming downhill, popping up in the air, wiping out on a ramp jump a la Evel Knievel.

Man, legal language is freaksome. I'm glad I never tried to go into law; apparently I would have spent the first semester with a red pen clutched in my hand, going all English-Major-OCD on perfectly innocent course material.

Matt, Hope your back feels better soon. I know the pain of that all too well.

Thankfully I'm merely achy today, rather than in agony like last night. Which completely flies in the face of all my previous experience with pulled or strained muscles the morning after, but I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.
