What's his hand doing under that table and why is he videotaping it?

He's trying to prove that Elvis' ghost possessed his desk, thus becoming eligible for the 1.000.000 dollars prize of the Amazing Randi Psychic Challenge. He's banging with his hidden hand under the table so that the cd cases jump up and down in the rhythm of "Blue Suede Shoes". He's also making some booish sounds, because that can't hurt, really.

He's scratching his leg. The video camera is switched off. He's reading this thread, hence the bemused look. Grant Morrison wrote that bit.

He only has one arm. He is humming a lullaby to his two best friends, who are Deceptikons, not mere electronic equipment, and cannot sleep for fear of Optimus Prime. (I don't know which lullaby, it's Czech.)

He's holding his guts in with his hand, looking up lifesaving first aid tips on the net and videotaping it all to use as evidence against his wife, who hired the thug who just tried to kill him. The thug is currently lying on his back in the bathtub with a Gillette Mach III razor handle jammed into his right eyesocket, bleeding, twitching and proving for once and for all that the .45 is not the best weapon for close quarters combat.

Sorry folks, I've run out of points. Ganesh and Gridley owe me a bunch, but they seem to be avoiding me when they've got points and only turning up around here when they haven't got points. It's fine to have points on the ledger but not much good if they're in the doubtful debts column.

If I ever get the points, I'll give them to you as follows.

Jade, I owe you 17 points.

E. Randy, one point. You might have been awarded more if you hadn't used the word "bemused".

Qalyn... huh. Well, OK. Maybe. 3 points.

grant, between a .45 and a Gillette Mach III, .45s rule. Except for shaving, which I found out with much pain and suffering this morning. You get .45 of a point. You lost points for dissing us hired thugs.
