You know, there's only so much storage in the human brain. Don't you ever worry
about what this kind of stuff is displacing?



What is this place?
Who am I?
Who are you?

What are these little things with numbers and letters on them below my
fingers?

Help!!!!!!! I'm forgetting the alphabet. . .

A classic case where brain displacement should be encouraged.

Remember, this is a guy who when last visiting the Antar(c)tic was able to
do so without ever leaving terra firma.


Right! Just like even though the Moon is 1/49 the size of Earth, it's a lot
further away.

Looks like we've ruined yet another perfectly good thread. I hope you're

happy.

We?

Fine. I was trying to spread the responsibility to take some of the
heat off of you, but if you're willing to accept full responsibility
for your penguin segue, so be it.


The thread has finally been smoked. Now, where's my tuxedo?

Very likely, whatever it is.

There was a penguin on the packages of KOOL cigarettes.


I vaguely recall that.

Now, you didn't grow
up in NY, did you?


Goodness, no! Southern California, dude.

Why I remember stuff like this is beyond me, but it sure keeps me
entertained.


I think you're best off in this condition. Keep taking the pills.

Mike
