Traditionally, I spend my Wednesday mornings calibrating the centrifuges and filing for patents. I'm losing focus a bit lately, though. I talked the bosses here at Dyscern World HQ Labs into springing for a PlayStation 3, and I'm terminally hooked on Fallout 3 . Best. Game. Ever. I kind of have a thing for post-apocalypse scenarios. Hence, my collection of underground bunkers at undisclosed locations worldwide.

As a dedicated man of science, I never miss The Simpsons, which is -- quite empirically --- the greatest TV show ever. So I'm almost positive this was a joke onthe show many years ago. At some point, Homer got so fat he couldn't use his fingers to dial the phone, so he got a widget to cover his fingers with smaller finger extenders. Am I remembering this right? Someone help me out.

I finally talked the Powers That Be here at Dyscern World HQ into
springing for a Wii console. I'd been doing some hand-eye coordination
experiments with the rhesus monkeys, and wanted to see if they could
actually play a round of virtual golf. Turns out that, not only can
they, they're averaging 6-under-par for 9 holes. Those are PGA Tour
numbers, and if I play my cards right, we're all going to retire fat
and happy.
