kid, i always knew you were talented, handsome, and charming, but so clever? add that to your list... how ever did you figure it out? i now feel like superman caught in the phone booth with his pants down (did you ever wonder about that?). but why did you have to tell? i thought we had something special, a secret that you wouldn't expose. and now, the good time must end between spoc and i because you had to blow our cover (hmmm, this could be fun). now i'm begging you to take it back. get on your calculator watch (which doesn't work), figure out the proper calculations, and email mr bob ASAP to let him know that you were in a drunken haze, one which you've been in the last 3 decades, and didn't mean a word of it. the future of babble is in your hands kid.
now, let's think of what could happen, shall we? suppose for a moment, mr bob reads your post and decides to investigate further. he'll find my ISP, realize that i indeed work for the government, am in fact doing research as we speak on the effects of long-term coffee spillage on keyboards. from there, he'll find that i also work for starbucks, destined to design a new brand of coffee that can be spilled on keyboards without causing any type of damage to the system. he'll also find that at the same time i'm working for folgers, also preparing to create a new brand of coffee specifically designed to be spilt on a keyboard system without significant damage. he'll expose me for the fraud i am, as you can't really work for competing companies at the same time. also, i'll go to prison. granted, since i work for the governement, it'll be a federal prison, complete with tennis court and conjugal visits (and you are married, right kid? it doesn't mean i have to be married to you, does it?) so, while i'm tanning and engaging in numerous other activities, this new brand of coffee and the study will never be conducted (and if it is, it won't be conducted properly, i assure you). people will still be spilling coffee all over their keyboards and complaining about not having a coffee that doesn't hurt their system. humanity will suffer. i'll have a tan. in 20 years, i'll be released and look like an over-cooked bird since there is little to do in prison other than tan. sheesh, by then i'll be middle aged! do you really want to take responsibility for that kid? i didn't think so. quick, retraction please!!!
