In a little known twist that they've been saving for the sequel, that wasn't really Nemo. A tiny shark in disguise. The sequel's current working title is Eating Albert Brooks. Oops, forgot the spoiler space.

Olympic etiquette

What do you think about the US Olympic team getting etiquette lessons on how to behave when they win? I'm of two minds about the whole celebration thing - I didn't get what the problem was when the US relay team celebrated and the Australians played air guitar. It's kind of fun and not offensive. If someone pulled a cell phone out on the podium or really started taunting or didn't show respect for the anthem, that seems excessive.

I think these etiquette lessons are kind of silly.
It's kind of nice that the Olympics are a gigantic sporting event that we can pretend would still be undertaken even if there were no television audience, or no audience at all, simply because it's still partly about athletes finding out who among them is the best in the world.

So to the extent the celebration consists of exultation at the sudden discovery that you are the best in the world, okay. But I think it's worth reminding American twentysomethings that if they behave as if this is the first and only time they'll ever be on television, they will regret it once the moment is over. "Hey, kid, do you want your victory to be shown on a compilation of America's proudest moments in 100 years, or on 'Back in Black' in three days? Your choice."

Surprising proof that Lester is actually pretty highly evolved.

Scientists are speculating that the thirst for alcohol is based in evolutionary biology.

Also, bad news for Flinty:
  • "You can't afford to have even a mild sense of euphoria when you are a primate," Milton said, "because you will get eaten or fall out of a tree and onto your head."

I've seen that happen at a poker table. It wasn't pretty.

I notice they have failed to account for the effect of alcohol on the number of attempts at the reproductive act. Stupid scientists.

Humping someone's leg does not count as an attempt at the reproductive act.

No, no. You were feeling attractive because the lesbian checked you out, remember?

Perhaps not, but it at least gave me the idea that you were coming onto me. Don't fret. Everyone else was drunk, too.

Regardless, I wouldn't have minded if they had killed off the Albert Brooks fish in Finding Nemo. What a pussy.

You saw me getting eaten at a poker table? It may not have been pretty, but it sure was fun. That reminds me, I think I owe you some money and a pencillin shot.

Cheers,

Flinty
