All right I'll be your friend on this one, Isis.  This will be good,
because I've been wanting to do this.  I too, think highly of Inception,
but when I saw it five times, in a row, that one week, it was in the depths
of a really unpleasant bender from which I could not escape, relatives I
did not know were flying in, ambulances were circling, authorities were
notified, Senators emailed, rabbis requested, the loud voices were
whispering, whispering, always just outside of vision-range, and there was
Inception...So now I'll find out if, in such scenarios, my artistic
sensibilities are as perfect as they are now.  If I were made of bones I'd
be dust, I'm so sober now.

What's your passcode?
