    Not only is our economy slipping now we're falling behind in mad science as well! What am I supposed to do with all these pyrex beakers?

        Today's money doesn't buy as many killer robots as it used to.

          Not to worry. They will get a hold of Dick Cheney and he will fund it when it is found they can be used to getting oil. LOL

            One person's disaster is another persons opportunity;

            My next of kin, Willie 'The Redneck Hammer of Thor' Gunderhoff, is now on e-bay looking for the robots to make a bid on. He has always wanted a 'couple' of those puppies.

            He thinks a 'couple of them' would help him guard his WVa estate(5 acres of mountain side and a double wide) from "those Commie Limo-Hippies and ATF agents".

            They also could do the grillin' at NASCAR events and the Steelers home football games while he 'keg parties' in the infield or parking lot with his buddies.

            He is delirious with anticipation.

                this is the problem with mad scientists today, too dependent on fancy technology. In my day, we just waxed our mustache and poured some black powder into an innocent looking anvil... and boom!!!

                this new generation, they got no imagination, everything has to be robotic or trans-dimensional, it s ridiculous really. being a mad scientist isn't about what you can do with state of the art technology, its about devious plans and making the most of your enemies mistakes.

                ahhh, kids.

                    I was so looking forward to the Hyperchronal Disruptor. Well, I have to go and break the news to my good friend Dr.Evil and reschedule his tryst with Austin Powers.

                      Drat! I guess since they pulled the money needed away from Mordis we'll just have to leave The Bilderberg Group in charge for now.

                        Its all true :( I can barely afford to keep my volcano fortress operational and I've cut out my henchmen dental plan!!! If the economy doesn't pick up soon, I may have to cut the fashion budget!!!
