So, I'm reading badassmofo.com
and they reference an article from
slashdot.org which references an article from cnn.com.
The real article can be read
right here.
Anyway, the gig is that "scientists" put glowing bone marrow cells
into the tail vein of a mouse and found that it migrated to the brain
to form neurons...they cut the mouse skull open and found the brain
was glowing...awwyeah. So, I immediately email Mike and a short dialogue begins.
me:
This SOOO rocks. I'm going to super inject myself with bone marrow
juice and become an INSANE SUPER GENIUS VILLAIN!!!!!!!!! this
COMPLETELY kicks ass!
I will now be known as: Brainiac 69
mike:
I want to be your arch nemesis. I will call myself:
THE INVINCIBLE DR. CAPRIO
And my first kid is going to be:
THE INVINCIBLE DR. CAPRIO JR.
I'm going to fight you with giant monkeys that have human
intelligence, and have big glass domes for heads that expose their
brains.
me: I will fight you with with an army of robot cyborgs, all which look like Christopher Reeve (pre-accident)!
And then Go Go Girl (aka Dawn) joins the fray...
And the plot thickens:

RE: Recent surge in glowing-headed Superhero activity
DEPT CODE: XXX-69-CAP
REVIEWED: Committee number 401-AB
CLASSIFICATION: Top Ultra-confidence Security (Secret)
Honorable Brainiac-69 and Invincible Dr. Caprio et.al.:
Our committee, under the able chairman-ship of the Senator M. Brash has, after due and deliberate debate, consideration and review of all applicable evidence, made a recommendation via the executive administration branch of the GSAO (General superhero accounting office) to issue one Gov't Scientist to find and eliminate you. Theft of ultra-secret-genius serum may not go unpunished without regard to the rule of law.
You are hereby summoned to appear before the committee or suffer the wrath of Gov't Scientist.
Should you choose the later, Gov't Scientist will fight you by throwing top-secret-energy-department-(exploding)-laptops at you. He will be difficult for you to defeat as he is aptly protected by lab coat and clipboard shield.
dawn: hmmmmm.
you don't think that Senator M. Brash and the Government Scientist are
the SAME PERSON, do you?!?!
Gov't Scientist and his Mercenaries ...from

This is kind of a vague coincidence... Christopher Reeves wants his stem cells cloned so he can walk again. He's also pissed at Bush and here's why...
