retarded alcoholic vs. gay Vulcan

I locked myself out of the house on Saturday, but it all ended up very well, because (in one of those weird chains of events) if I hadn’t, Arushi wouldn’t have bought a Macintosh. Shyamal was like “Finally! Geez!” He couldn’t wait to get it home and get his hands on the UNIX command line interface.

I have had two songs running through my head today, occasionally concurrently — Laurie Anderson’s “O Superman” and the Pinky and the Brain theme song. That’s not your everyday combination.

Here come the planes… NARF!

A bit of humor from Joel: “Did you ever watch the late, lamented ‘Politically Incorrect’? One time in his monologue, Bill Maher dressed up as a ‘pregnant chad’ and said that the whole election mess was the fault of ‘You people — you nominated a retarded alcoholic and a gay Vulcan and couldn’t understand why the vote split 50/50.'” HAR!

Now, I’m fairly certain that W and Gore are neither retarded nor gay, but the “alcoholic” and “Vulcan” parts might be hitting pretty close to home.
