Drink of the Week for Sep 12th, 2005: Karen's Melons

What we had to say

We've been having trouble sleeping lately. It might be all this coffee we're drinking, or that we are up late preventing cyber-hackers from hacking our cyber. It could also be because we gave our beds to some manatees displaced by the hurricane, and now they won't let us use them. Damn manatees. In seriousness though, it's the hacker thing. Someone has been poking around at the Mainframe of Funk which runs our little site. In response, we've spent long hours training some attack weasels to learn how to disassociate and ionize their corporeal forms over TCP/IP and retransmogrify at the other end to discombobulate and run up pant legs. You might think it sounds easy, but it's not. Also, we're not sure, but discombobulating weasels may be illegal in the state of Ohio. In any event, we're thinking of marketing our new security product to internet firms. We'll make millions. The best part will be when that guy that keeps sending spam emails trying to sell fake drugs and mortgages realizes he has an angry ermine in his underwear. Why hasn't anyone thought of this sooner?
