I think that watching TV has melted my brain.
It's cold outside, so I've been on the couch with Mrs R and the puppy, watching the Food Network for three hours or so.

Pretty good shows, but either the LSD from the 1960s has come back to haunt me, or some kind of Hallucination Rays are coming out of the TV, because this CANNOT be real.

Actually, I think it IS real, but you're still not going to believe this: I just saw a commercial that advertised Alpacas.

I shit you not: ALPACAS.

And we thought the boner-pill commercials were inexplicable.

5. They've got a great team this season.
The Alpacas are, what, 8-1 right now? One helluva team.

2. Hey! They're a terrific investment with incomparable tax advantages
Very friendly (unless one decides to knock you over) and the fiber spins up right nicely!

I have a dream of owning one some day.

4. Oh, I've seen that one.
It's been around for awhile, I think. I believe the website is ilovealpacas.com or something like that (which I visited only because I thought the ad was some kind of joke . . . and I'm still not entirely convinced that it isn't.)

7. You suppose they're trying to sell alpaca eggs? They HAVE to be selling SOMETHING.
