Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

Brain Tumors Safely Removed on Outpatient Basis
Which can only mean one thing: daytime TV, once a bastion of rent-a-lawyers, psychic hotlines, and exercise product infomercials, will be inundated with ads for brain tumor specialists.

ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM A BRAIN TUMOR!? DON'T HAVE TIME FOR A LENGTHY HOSPITAL STAY!? COME ON DOWN TO BRAINY BOB MD'S DISCOUNT TUMOREMOVER STORE!!! WEAK CREDIT-BAD CREDIT-OR NO CREDIT AT ALL! AND UNLIKE SOME PLACES, [Insert graphic showing big fat greedy doctor smoking a stogie] YOU GET TO TAKE THE TUMOR WITH YOU! YOU ARE GUARANTEED TO HAVE YOUR TUMOR REMOVED THE SAME DAY, OR WE'LL GIVE YOU A TRIP TO DISNEYWORLD! CALL NOW TO SET UP YOUR APPOINTMENT!

(Some restrictions may apply)

[insert clip of young woman pointing to bandaged head--"Brainy Bob MD's Tumoremover Store makes me wish I had TWO-MORE!"]

Of course, Yahoo! will probably go into heavy rotation with pop-ups for AMAZING TINY X-10 WIRELESS TUMOR REMOVAL! And I'll get spammed by Nigerians who want me to invest in walkup tumor removal stands in Lagos, and all I have to do is allow them to transfer $30,000,000 in setup funds from the Abacha Medical Clinic into my bank account for three days.

ACT NOW!
