As you probably recall, back in The Day, we could bug vote. Sometimes I miss The Day. I considered the immeasurable harm I have done to keyboards, especially mechanical ones. I loved some of those keyboards. They gave their lives for some of those bugs. I also considered the number of bottles of scotch and sake that were gifted to me from employees who thought that "just a taste" would help me calm the hell down. So if I murdered a keyboard, but was consoled with a smooth nigori, the net was 0 and the bug demoted on my list.

On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours, and did a little diving.
