  4. Best thing about this post is the super-sly "Westworld" reference, but it does concern me a lil' bit:
    Should an impressionable stuffed bull such as yerself be watchin' such a maturely-themed show?! I mean fer gosh sake, there was a full-on robot-human orgy (to the tune of Nine Inch Nails natch!)...

  5. Harvey Jerkwater: Why thank you sir! That is high praise indeed and I'm tickled pink (and black and white).

    Olaf Frohn: Wow, cool! i want one of those for my birthday party! Thanks for answering Dave's always-pertinent question!

    Robt Seda-Schreiber: i must confess that while I'm not 'llowed to watch grown-up people TV, I do read a lot of The Onion's A.V. Club. And I'm chuffed as a chicken that you got the reference! In riffing a picture with alt-text my credo is always inspired by MST3K-creator Joel Hodgson: “We never say, ‘Who’s gonna get this?’ We always say, ‘The right people will get this.’” You, sir, are one of the right people. Hooray!

    Thank you all!
