I knew that it was on the schedule, but I kept procrastinating in my cell &#8230; checking livejournal &#8230; reading comics.  Finally I looked up and had missed my appointment with the gallows.  I rushed out, and the executioner was coming to get me.  He was really irked.  Said that he had planned to talk to me about a pardon, since I seem like a nice guy, but if I couldn&#8217;t even be on time to my own hanging then he didn&#8217;t see the point.  I finally roused myself to ask why I was to be executed &#8230; and it was totally a misunderstanding.  Wrong place, wrong time.  Everyone agreed, but also seemed to agree that I should have been on time if I wanted to raise these sorts of issues.  I woke up as the noose went around my neck.

It measures body fat.  Mine measured at 22% this morning.  The chart says that this is &#8220;moderate&#8221;, as opposed to &#8220;good&#8221;.  &#8220;Moderate?&#8221;  I work out every day!  I&#8217;m vegetarian!  For God&#8217;s sake, what does this scale want from me?  Why did I buy a device that will do nothing except disapprove of me?<\/p>\n<p>That works out to 38.72 pounds of fat, by the way, which is just a nasty mental image.  I&#8217;ve hefted 40lb sacks of cat litter.
