: From "The Onion"
: Calling it the most effective tool to
: date in the War on Terror, the Pentagon
: announced Monday that it had developed a new
: chemical weapon called "ennui
: gas," a nerve agent that overwhelms its
: victims with sudden philosophical distress
: over the meaningless tedium of human life
: and a sinking sense that everything they
: have ever accomplished ultimately ammounts
: to dust.
: The military assured Amnesty
: International and other human-rights groups
: that ennui gas causes no pain, save for the
: pain of realizing that one has wasted his
: life.
: As proof, Pentagon representative Byron
: Christie voluntarily inhaled a small amount
: of ennui gas at a private press conference
: last week.
: "Because ennui gas is a nonpersistant
: substance, it is highly probable that its
: victims will someday feel whole again,"
: said Christie, suddenly furrowing his brow
: and gripping his temples. "Then again,
: no one is truly whole, are they? We are all
: just pieces of flesh and bone masquerading
: as life, and the world will go on without
: me, my absence un-noticed, death as futile
: as life. Pain hath no sting, and pleasure's
: wreath no flower."
: Christie then lay down behind the podium
: and told members of the press to leave,
: repeatedly stating that there is no point to
: it all.

Greetings Fastovsky,
It seems that we are not, what we think we are.
