Danger Mouse

It is amazing how things sometimes fall magically into place, at least mentally. I have been noticing that alot lately. My thoughts are becoming more and more focused and I am thinking longer and longer on the same subjects. Either I have entered a new level of being or have taken my first steps towards madness.

Regardless, in this particular case I was thinking of the following metaphor and a fellow on the floor turned on his CD player and was listening to a CD he had made at home. First up, Kajagoogoo (knowing I spelled it wrong) then the song "19" which folded nicely into my memories for the basis of my metaphor. Specifically, the fact that my sister and I used to watch DM every afternoon right before dad got home, on Nickelodeon when it was still new. Those were good times.... I love my sister; get well soon Kel!

Nothing makes you feel old like remembering when major channels were launched. Nickelodeon, MYV, VH1, ESPN2, TLC, Discovery... wonderful!

Anyway, Danger Mouse was my hero for a while I must admit. I remember the episodes vividly, although in a childs mind. Still, I have a great metaphor from it.

Say that I am DM. My life here at work is like have Silus Greenback as a boss instead of Colenel K, with all the feelings they have for each other intact. You can imagine?

I guess that would make Richard about the closest thing to Penfold, though I doubt he ever watched Danger Mouse, so will miss the humor.

Still, what is DM to do? Stop saving the world because he works for a prick? No, he just has to take his lumps and roll with the punches, and wait....

If revenge is a dish best served cold, then old Danger Mouse is going to Ice Station Alpha for this one. And it's coming, oh my is it coming.
