dog blueprint
Completely stolen from [info]brucenstein is this non-meme but a pretty good question to ask you folks, who know me in different ways. I hope for all sorts of answers, be they funny, insulting, complimentary, thoughtful, or downright strange.

When [info]dogofthefuture grows up, he should be: _______________

A geneticist who creates mini-polar bears that smell like warm vanilla cupcakes!

I don't know that I can personally do this, but I do know an actual geneticist. I will tell him to get on this project immediately.

This is purely for science.

Well of COURSE. I mean, it's not like you would find any personal benefit in mini-polar bears that smell like vanilla cupcakes. It's not as if you enjoy any of those things.

I, as I know that you do, feel that the vast panoply of science will be enriched by creating such a, um, creature. As our knowledge advances, so in turn does humanity. Small vanilla-smelling polar bears will bring us a mighty insight into the ways of natural selection and genetics.

Should global warming in fact be true, polar bears will be need to relocate. This in turn will generate pressure within the scientific community to study the migratory patterns of polar bears when they're eventually forced to live in other areas of the world, like right here in Southern California.

Unfortunately, their enormous size makes it impossible to just release them in a metropolis like Los Angeles. Think of the fright they would cause! But, a similar study could be conducted with a breed of genetically engineered mini-polar bears. And their natural vanilla cupcake smell would make it so they were easy to track. (We couldn't tag them because you know, they could get caught on nail heads or tree branches.)

I approve this as "Best Idea Ever".



Also, you could have a teeny refrigerator just for them!

Oooooh. I even have received the precious red stamp of approval!

Once they're domesticated enough, the next logical thing to do would be to build polar bear parks so owners could take their bears to meet other bears.

I can do that already. I tell all the women I meet, "hey baby. More than meets the eye if you know what I'm saying."

I think you'd make an amazing White House Press Secretary.

OK, to explain, it went:

something needing quick wit/sarcasm (lawyer, mediator) --> someone who comes to conclusions about thing (scientist) --> someone who keeps other people's conclusions in check --> someone who gives conclusions to people --> White House Press Secretary!

For the record, it'd be because you're *not* a lying sleaze bag. You also seem to have a very patient demeanor, are able to talk to a wide variety of people, and are generally amicable.

To be fair, I've also been pretty good at being a professional lying sleaze bag in my life.

Being Niblet's grandpa
When one is Niblet's grandpa, there is no need to have "Once removed Niblet-y goodness." And trust me, it doesn't get any better than this. I get to have Nonce-removed Eric-y goodness and be the grandfather to the Niblet. Yup, life's good all over.
