Mankind is racing towards what could be the means of it's extinction and there's nothing that can be done. Perhaps this is the natural order of things.. Technology advances until it reaches a point where it destroys the civilization that created it. It would really be something if we vanished in a single night and day - like the Krell did. The truth is that in the end, nobody can stop the advancement of technology.

Please enjoy your waffle. I cooked up some Cacique Mexican chorizo yesterday because it was $1.25 a package. That seemed pretty reasonable to me. I had better read up on how to cook this stuff because mostly, I was left with some weird ass paste. I mixed it up so I could load it up into a tortilla. It's a tasty product - but weird.
