Worm Slinging

  • Little snakes without the plane? Who thinks this stuff up?

    I like Barbara Feldman‘s site because she makes me think of 99.

    Honest to god I was driving to the job this morning thinking about a post called “pinochle on your snout.” Then I get this email about worms crawling in and out and I decided it was probably the divine speaking to me in special ways. I immediately stopped the car and carved a huge boulder, a glacial erratic pushed here from the sea, into a beautiful gold-encrusted jade Buddha and I left a little offfering of prime rib and black eyed peas there in his lap and went on my way relieved of that karmic burden.

    Wait. I didn’t get the email until later, so the whole thing about the jade Buddha with gold crustaceans is probably a hallucination or a lie or some kind of web-too-oh thing.

    1. “Honest to god I was driving to the job this morning …”

      Job? You have a job?

      :)

    2. That comment was way funnier in my head, btw.

    3. (Can you include a “delete comment” option?)

      learning about the tool… if I have an account, but I don’t log-in, and I leave a comment — can I log-in later and edit or delete that comment?

      I’ve sent this inquiry to our double blind testing labs on four continents and I expect an answer back from each, soonest.

      The Tibetan test lab suggests that the question may be poorly stated.

    6. fptest says:

      The Dresdner lab has gone on strike, requesting wages rather than free internet access as compensation for their efforts.

    7. fptest says:

      Testing in Tegucigalpa has been completed but the access to the internet and results have been delayed.

      The test lab in Ashtabula reports that staff are off today preparing whitefish livers for the upcoming Labor Day holiday weekend.

    9. Senior management at Sandhill World Headquarters has tripled the testing budget and sent out for a couple of cartons of fried Whitefish livers. “Nobody goes home until we’ve licked this thing,” said CTO Ernst Schnably in an impromptu press conference called hastily this morning beneath a huge gold and porcelain sculpture, the statue of the company’s angel investor, Mr. S. McDuck.

      “There must be a better way to delete comments than emailing the site administrator and requesting deletion.” While Schnably spoke, the entire eastern seaboard suffered an electrical power loss. “Oops,” Schnably said. “That didn’t work either. Oh well, back to the drawing board.” As this is being written, power had been restored to critical fish processing plants in the Ashtabula area, but nowhere else.
