Good ol’ Defective Yeti, like a modern-day Dave Barry with some scripting skills, has caused me to compose this, from the browser on my computer at work:

So, what can you conclude?

Hmm. Obviously, that my work is not very web-intensive, right? Actually, in my defense, the news is mostly relevant to work. And comics are quick …
