There’s a new issue of The Onion out. I love the article entitled “Mad Scientist’s Plot Thwarted By Budget Cuts”. Favorite line: “‘This is a dark day for mad science,’ Mortis said.” Runner-up: “‘We all thought [Mortis] was untouchable,’ said fellow Brookhaven researcher Dr. Phillip Kondos. ‘Edward’s genius for devising plans for world domination is second only to his genius for whipping up applications for funding. We always envied his ability to isolate himself in his dank lab and emerge days later with a hideously ingenious grant proposal all of his own creation.'”
