Two funny things

1. Everyone's always worried about technologically superior alien races invading earth, but I think the most embarrassing thing for our planet would be if aliens with technology less advanced than ours arrived. Our technological inferiors would totally laugh at us for not being able to find life in the universe and not achieving interplanetary travel sooner, because they managed to do it with the equivalent of a cassette-playing walkman and a TI-85 graphing calculator.

2. I decided last night that the most dangerous animal ever would be a rabid dog with a rusty nail stuck in its jaws. Think about it. You try to help get the nail out of the dog, and it bites you! Now you've got rabies and lockjaw. You'd be foaming out of your locked jaw! Plus you'd have to keep going to the doctors to get a series of giant shots for weeks and weeks afterward. N. wisely pointed out that the dog could also have ticks carrying lyme disease, and maybe some head-lice, just to be annoying. Also fleas.

I am off to Anime Expo very, very early Friday morning and will not be back until essentially Tuesday. So if you're trying to get a hold of me... well, good luck.
