Astronomers have obtained a concentrated sample of interstellar space. They say it smells slightly burnt.

Staying in bed tomorrow is a great idea. Will you bring me toast and jam?

Purely Platonic bedroom toast and jam service. American style, please, not that cold English toast.


In another story, the International Philosophers Union has downgraded Plato from a major to a minor philosopher, noting that most of his philosophy was just cribbed from Socrates. Plato will be the representative type of a new philosophical group to be called the "Platoids", including such names as Carl Reichenbach, Charles Pierce, Philip Albert Stadtler and Sun Yat Sen.

Thank you Bruce. Now Bruce will present the results of the faculty beer drinking survey.

I'm looking for a job as an official beer taster. I require a salary in excess of $100,000 per year, a driver and several young female research and administrative assistants.

Let's activate the Time Screen and see how DyerWolf's job is going....

October 2009, 9:47 a.m. Fifteen months into the job.

Buffy: Mr. Wolf, the morning delivery of beer samples is waiting for you in the lab. They are trying to get the Winter Ale perfected, so there are 12 additional samples of that for you to try. The makes 19 samples total for the morning.
Wolf: Can't I at least finish my coffee first, my head is already pounding.
Bambi: And the Q&A manager wanted me to remind you that you need to completely fill out form QA392-5893 for each sample; you've been skipping the last 17 questions lately.
Buffy: (spritely) Come on sleepy head, time to go try the beer
Mr. Wolf lunges out of his chair and takes a swing at Buffy's head.
Bambi: That's not very nice, you wouldn't hit a girl? (Bambi bursts into tears)
Buffy: I'm filing a sexual discrimination lawsuit!

Think of this message as being light purple I don't remember the 1950's-era command to make it purple, so just use your imagination.


Oh, and the typeface is extra-extra large.

The nice thing about beer, is that it makes me think I am now, the Adonis-type male I used to be, 20 years ago. ...No, that's not true.

The truth is, as I drink beer, my powers of perception increase dramatically.

Case in point: when I first walk into a bar, I can't tell that the young 20-somethings in the bar think I am fun and attractive. But after a few beers, it becomes clear that the men think I'm cool in a "Hail, fellow, well met" kind of way, and the women become more and more attracted to me as the night goes on; in fact I become able to discerne that the really cute brunette or blonde in the corner has a thing for older men, and that if the opportunity presented itself...











(Usually about this time, my wife starts giving me dirty looks and asking me if I'm okay to drive... a clear sign that she's driving home (and that it's time to go!))

The use of beer goggles helps those who need them, they give you the strength to do and say things you would not normally do when not wearing them, you think your invincible, reactions are as sharp as a needle, you look more handsome now than when you went out 5 hours earlier, everyone admires you and wishes they were as handsome as you are!
You can talk a lot louder when in a normal conversation, this is because you want every one to hear it as your wanting their attention too.
Fighting, well you are the strong one and there is nobody in the entire world who can beat you, even Tyson is a pussy cat.
Watching the football, you know more about the rules of the game than the ref, you could have played better with both arms tided behind your back and legs taped together too if thats what it would take to make the game even.
Can party all night long you can keep up with the younger ones and try your hardest to be up all night and prove to them you are still with it, but the next day you sleep and miss the entire weekend, but on Monday morning you go back to work looking rougher than road kill and have to tell them you partied all weekend to look cool.
