100 Common Sense Rules...

...for a dangerous world. Ten years old, but as valid as the day they were written. A few of the 'easy-to-follow' truisms:

34. I will not turn into a snake. It never helps.

42. When I capture the hero, I will make sure I also get his dog, monkey, ferret, or whatever sickeningly cute little animal capable of untying ropes and filching keys happens to follow him around.

85. I will not use any plan in which the final step is horribly complicated, e.g. "Align the 12 Stones of Power on the sacred altar then activate the medallion at the moment of total eclipse." Instead it will be more along the lines of "Push the button."

90. I will not design my Main Control Room so that every workstation is facing away from the door.

Axioms to live by and no red ink. Brought to you because we care.

Thanks for nothing, Dave old buddy old pal. I just spent an hour on that site. (Did you see the PhotoShop Phriday Far Side for Real ? Oh my gawd, I about bust a gut. Terminators in Hats was excellent, too.)

Okay. Thanks.
