Jabberwocky for 2002 December 8

- I bought a disposable aluminum cake pan which purports to be "embossed for an elegant effect." I examined it closely and it is indeed embossed--in a kind of paisley pattern. But elegant? An aluminum cake pan? Embossing or no, it doesn't go on much past utilitarian.

- I have to drink a whole gallon of radioactive slime tonight so I can get a biopsy done in the morning. It is not going down well.
