The Vicious Rumors of a Closed Down Insurance Office

No one can hear you scream if you have your head stuffed in a bowl of week old Jello(tm).


Kim was finding this after a few hours of screaming. And her continued situation of being smack dab in the middle of a massive bowl of somewhat crusty Jello(tm) is what made her draw the previous conclusion.


She could feel the strain in her legs, of standing for hours on end at a table, on which sat her head, resting in that aforementioned bowl. As an experiment, she tried stretching her calves a little bit. Not bad, not bad. Good stretch, took her mind off the ache at the back of her knees. Someone else passed through the room, presumably to fix the copier, in the room back there.


The most frustrating thing about being stuck in Jello(tm) was not the smell. Or threat of asphyxiation, should the minute holes through which she was currently breathing close up. It was the fact that you could see, and sort of hear people, as they walked through the same room in which you found yourself trapped. They just looked a little green, in this case.



disclaimer:

The Sane Magazine offices are very quiet this week. All quiet on the Eastern front, as it were.

Or, considering the place of New England and Boston in general as the Hub of the Universe, and in our own, trans-Atlantic, trans-Continental existence as a superpower of... whatever it is we do weekly, all quiet on the front in the middle. Which doesn't make sense, at all.


And, in the interest of bringing you something very cool, or at least very distracting, so you don't notice just how short this week's issue is, we're outta here now.

Liked it.
Didn't like it.
Would have liked more references to bats.
I'd rather be boiled in vinegar.

Also, we'd like your take on the now missing Summary Feature (email subscribers can still access the summary for the current week's issue only and you can sign up here). How do you feel about the (now gone) summary feature on each issue?
I miss it.
Didn't use it.
What summary, you mean I can get away with reading less?
Don't miss it at all.
