Many of you have been writing wonderful, thought-provoking posts which I would love to respond to in detail. Unfortunately, aliens have abducted the vast majority of my brain cells and they (the aliens) refuse to return them (the brain cells) until I--

Sorry, I have been informed that I may not reveal what it is the aliens would have me do if I ever want to see my brain cells alive again. However, since I like you people, I will warn you that you must not snort garlic salt up your nose while humming the theme tune to Bonanza until after June 4, 2002 or you will regret it.

Gosh, thanks for the warning! I was just about to do that exact thing, too. Can I hum the tune if I omit the garlic salt? Sure don't want to expose you to undue risk. :D

(Hope your brain cells are returned pronto!)

I'd advise you to avoid humming that particular tune for a while. Perhaps you'd like to hum the theme to the original Star Wars movie instead? Just don't hum anything from the sequels, and you'll be fine.

I'm safe. I prefer singing the damn thing, "We got a right to pick a little fight, Bonanza." I usually leave the garlic for later.

Ah, sensible man. Just make sure you don't slip into humming by mistake when you're doing the garlic salt thing. I'd hate for you to get hurt.

They got yours too, huh? Those pesky aliens!

Yep, got me too. I was going to write a wonderful, in-depth essay right here in my LJ, but now all I can do is type inane comments like this. Woe is us.

Well, that's only a couple weeks away. I suppose I shall manage somehow.

That's the spirit!

Now if only I can get those brain cells back so I can make sensible posts and post sensible comments once more...

Lack of brain cells never stops me from posting. Not that I recommend this.

Is it ok to snort garlic powder while singing the theme from M*A*S*H*?

Only if you get the words exactly right. Otherwise something might happen which I'd rather not get into here, other than solemnly warning you that you don't want to annoy those giant alien gerbils.

But the giant alien gerbils are my friends. They tell me what to do. They can't hurt you, you know. Although they can make you do terrible things to yourself.

Suicide is Painless

(Theme from M*A*S*H*)

Through early morning fog I see,
Visions of the things to be,
The pains that are withheld for me,
I realize and I can see...

[REFRAIN]:
That suicide is painless.
It brings on many changes.
And I can take or leave it if I please.

I try to find a way to make,
All our little joys relate,
Without that ever-present hate,
But now I know that it's too late, and...

[REFRAIN]

The game of life is hard to play,
I'm gonna lose it anyway.
The losing card I'll someday lay,
So this is all I have to say.

[REFRAIN]

The only way to win is cheat,
And lay it down before I'm beat,
And to another give my seat,
For that's the only painless feat.

[REFRAIN]

The sword of time will pierce our skins.
It doesn't hurt when it begins.
But as it works its way on in,
The pain grows stronger...watch it grin, but...

[REFRAIN]

A brave man once requested me,
to answer questions that are key.
Is it to be or not to be?
And I replied 'Oh why ask me?'

[REFRAIN]

'Cause suicide is painless.
It brings on many changes.
And I can take or leave it if I please.

...And you can do the same thing if you choose.
