About Me

Automated system scans environment for potential distractions and amplifies them. Self-fueling and autodidactic, the unit is capable of autonomous operation for long periods of service. State of the art algorithms maintain an auto-calibrating lattice of entertainment seeking heuristics that are balanced by a novel quantum ontological governor derived from work in the V.A.L.I.S. project (see PKD, '81).Unit typically runs on affordable medium grade cuisine but will accept a wide variety of international fuel mixes. Occasional cleaning and lubrication with alcohol is recommended. Manufacturer offers a (very) limited warranty covering costs of return and long term storage of unit results.

My Dad died of colon cancer when he was a tender 45. That puts me into a high-risk category for the same kind of trouble and my doc thought it would be wise to schedule me for a colonoscopy. Better sa...
