Though one of them proved well-mannered and I wound up with a black swan's head in the palm of my hand.
Still attached at the neck, right?
Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Get bitten by a black swan once, shame on you. Get bitten by a black swan twice, shame on me.
Why, were they acting under your orders? Wallybee found it most entertaining that I was remonstrating with them. Not nearly as entertaining as she found it when I almost got bitten in the face, though.

Or the presidential version...
Bite me once shame on, shame on you. Bite me...you can't get bit again.

Well, yes. It's a lot of neck to leave unattended.

You know that you're not in hell because you are posting here. All the websites in hell use orange on green color schemes, make heavy use of the blink tag, and always start playing Celine Dion songs when you load the page.

I'm in disk format hell.
And the server room is freaking freezing.
The swans on the frozen Elbe used to attack us. They were awesome smart, and would steal stuff from your pockets if your weren't careful.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm on hold with the big company's help desk. So far I have tried to log on to the scary new server approximately ten times.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I call false dichotomy. Surely activites engaged in purely for pleasure can also be instinctive and/or survival-based. (Otherwise, why have orgasms?)
And FOOD. (You know, good food. Nom nom nom.)
And speaking of food, it really makes more sense for the bear and the doggy to fight even if everyone is well fed if the whole point is keeping up our survival-based skill set.

I guess I know I'm not in hell because my iPod is still working.
