Wonderful!

	Is there no one on this planet to even challenge me?

Dear Stampy the Little Stamper,

	Listen buddy, at this time on a Saturday night I have trouble finding
people on this planet willing to *humor* me.  Miss Yakamoto in
particular is fond of brandishing a crossbow and setting fire to the
moat in order to stop my "rampage."  I tell her it's all in fun, but she
tells me that Dr. Jekyll's formula is not an aperitif.  Or a nightcap.

	Hey, you know who can give you a challenge?  Any-friggin-body on the
Internet.  Just go ahead, post an opinion -- hell, post an indisputable
fact (e.g. "This is a sentence containing the word 'this.') -- I'm sure
you'll be challenged within moments.  Thing is, it doesn't matter how
bad-ass you are, the challenges won't stop.  You might think you're in
an unassailable position, but it *will* be assailed.  Crush all the
feeble hu-man pretensions you like, there will be more.  They don't
recognize any authority on right or wrong, and for every single whackjob
there are two others who at least "see the point."  It's a Nerd Hydra!

	Hercules wept.

	In the Internet, mankind has created its first, best, defense against
Certainty and Togetherness.  Which, really, is also a good defense
against Fascism and Control.  I'm not saying that any of these
challenges are *valid*, or *strong*, or *non-fiction*, but what they are
is incessant and bizarrely human.  And, oddly enough, we here at
Wonderful Labs kind of like that.

	The Internet is Infinite Cockroach Armor against all space-conquerors,
mind-takers, body-snatchers, string-pullers, god-talkers and
pretzel-chokers.  Viva!  In Diversity is Strength, bitch.

Mister Wonderful Recommends:  Cilantro.  Soapy, minty goodness.  Yes,
that's right.  An herb other than Tarlick, cilantro belongs in mouths
the world over.  And trust me: cilantro isn't just another word for my
generative organs.  It's another word for Coriander.  Why?  Something to
do with Calvin Coolidge and the Spanish-American War, I fear.  They also
call it Chinese Parsley.  They used to call it Elvis Parsley, but it
turns out that was just carrot tops stolen from Robert Johnson.  It's
the best green since St. Patrick's Day lingerie, so give it a try already.
