I think so, Brain, but what if the hippopotamus won't wear the beach thong?

I'm tired, which makes writing harder.  I suppose I could have loaded up on some caffeine this afternoon, but that idea didn't occur to me until now, a bit too late for caffeine.  And I still have to go to kung fu class.  Strangely enough, I know I'll feel better after class.  I'll sleep very well tonight as a result.  But now, my brain is mushy and slow.

One thing I do know, I like the science of swordfighting.  Or at least, I think I do.  I saw a video of Anthony DeLongis demonstrating saber attack and parry.  It was fascinating to see what difference a turn of the elbow or wrist can make.  Skeletal structure and attacking angle were emphasized.  It's something that I'll have to tap into in the next few years.  Until then, kung fu has plenty of that to teach me. 

And that seems to be it.  My mind has given up the ghost.  Tune in next week when I give a farewell ode to the Pinky and the Brain quotes I've been using for years.  In fact, today's blog title was the last Pinky quote since next week's is a call and response quote.  I'll explain more in a week.

I'm still here,
