Pinky and the Brain and the Doc are going to start our own mutual admiration society here. (apologies to PATB for the bad link these past few days! arg!!!)
We are very grateful to Pinky (and the Brain) and Pat the Dog and Brad and Doug for carrying on this blogging thing so faithfully.
The Doc has been busy of late so We haven't had time or focus to keep up our daily or more-often posts... We thank Pinky for the great introduction and hope to get back to some interesting new posts soon.
Meanwhile, please check out the dozen entertaining posts already offered and let's generate some good discussion about some of these topics! And feel free to send us your own good satirical material, we are happy to use it with/without attribution, anonymously/psuedonymously.

Doc... the links to pinky and the brain's blog are wrong.
Doc,
The problem is, there is very little funny about LANL these days. The corporatization of our lab is now a reality, and we employees are paying the price. We now have completely incompetent management, even worse than when UC was the sole proprietor. We also have drug tests, polygraph tests, at-will employment status, and a looming budget shortfall that will guarantee RIFS.
Sorry, I have no satirical stories to send you.
Our Apologies for the lame links... both PATB and Doug and Brad were linked to the wrong places (one to the other, and the other to never-never-land!)
As for there being very little funny about LANL these days... You hit the nail square on the head... nothing funny, nothing pleasant, nothing hopeful.
And yet, that is precisely what Satire is good for. Laughing so we don't cry... seeking the ironical twist where it may be.
It's the best cartoon ever and the show featured a few recurring characters. Snowball the hamster is Brain's former friend, also made intelligent by gene splicing. He has also developed a desire for world conquest, and Pinky and the Brain are sometimes forced to stop Snowball's schemes. 2j3j
