Humor: Attitude adjustments

next morning, and sometimes there's a mild rash. The Aliens bill your HMO directly, and they don't need a referral.

I don't mind saying that I'm pretty excited about the decision to get PLR's. It's almost like the feeling of buying your first car. I did decide to indulge myself with a few sporty options. I'm going for the AccuZap2008 model with the auto-deploy function. It features the two standard settings, STUN/IMMOBILIZE, which allows you up to five minutes to lecture the target individual, and VAPORIZE, in case they continue to disagree after you release them from the initial immobilization. The auto-deploy kicks in on its own in the presence of anyone who says the word "paradigm" or uses "impact" as a verb. Understand now, I'm certainly not a violent person and I intend to use my PLR's judiciously, only on people who don't do what I know they should do.

I forgot to ask how long it takes to become proficient in the use of PLR's. I never did get the knack of driving a stick shift and I must admit that I'm rather awkward. Perhaps I should experiment with lower life forms like politicians and car salesmen before attempting to use the AccuZap2008 on humans.

Yes, this is definitely the way to go, and I think life will go much more smoothly now. I might even be able to talk some sense into the tax assessment folks.
