I've got a bottle of Swathmore Vinyards Merlot from South Africa sitting here that I could open right now. But I'm saving it, see. That's how much control I have.

A few days ago I urged you all to go hunt this ape-monster. What have I wrought?
Wow. Now there's bands of angry Indians roaming the streets, looking for the ape-monster. Some people say it's a person in an ape mask, and those very same people are going around beating up suspected ape-mask-wearers. Like, they find people sleeping on roofs, and beat them up because they might be the ape-man! Torch wielding mobs! Violence in the streets! Anarchy! Lions having sex with lambs and creating leo-sheep-things! Um, what was I talking about again?
Oh, the ape guy. Apparently, it's got metal claws, red eyes, and green glowing chest. Police are talking about mass "fear psychosis", but there's also a $1000 reward for capturing the ape-monster, so it's sort of a mixed message.
One such rioter was quoted as saying, "Uh, I'm just here to take pictures of the monkey-man. Oh, and Pigdog told me to say they sent me."
Okay, I'm lying about that last part.

It's not like I have a heroin problem, see. I'm just a self-indulgent brat who likes to live beyond her means. When I zip down to my corner Money Mart for a little cash-till-payday loan, I'm really not planning to spend it on drugs. I'll spend it on sushi. Seventy bucks of interest for a two-week $400 loan is perfectly reasonable, if you really need that hamachi. (More...)
