It's Friday Night...

I finished work at the lab a little late tonight. General McInnery came by and wanted to chat about our progress with the latest round of testing. I guess he was curious since he spent a lot of political capital to cover up our latest round of acquisitions. The bodies had to be taken (in reasonably good condition) from Southwest Asia and flown all the way to our lab in secure, freezing conditions to slow the process of decay. A lot of money had to change hands with some local tribal officials to allow us to remove the corpses with no promise of return. It seems to have worked out ok for now. I've got 25 fresh new corpses, all on ice, ready for our work to begin anew.

General McInnery is not a bad sort of guy. He's pretty nice for a military type. He just wants results and I can respect that. He also seems kind of lonely. I've got a reanimated Pashtun tribesman I can give him, just for company. He doesn't really say anything, he just kind of moans, and groans. I call him Carlyle. He looks like a Carlyle to me anyway. As I said before, he just kind of sits around and moans, but he's not trouble at all. He will stay in one place until you move him. General McInnery could use him as a sounding board for new ideas. Carlyle can't offer any real feedback, but sometimes when you are working on a new project, it just helps to have someone to sit there and listen.

Oooh and there were tacos in the cafeteria today!! I love tacos. They seem to really get me in the mood for a wild weekend. I rented the movie, Shaun of the Dead (again). I really like the humor, and the editing in that film. It seems to create an out of control feeling at times, and I like that.

All in all it's been a good Friday for a change. I'm looking forward to coming in late tomorrow and working on re-animating the speech centers in some of my test subjects. It should be great fun.
