Long as I remember
The brain been in the jar
Clouds of myst'ry pourin'
Confusion in the bar
mad men through the ages
Tryin to find some fame
But I wonder, still I wonder
Who dropped the brain
I went down the basement
Seekin' shelter from the storm
corpses on the table
I watched the candle glow
sparks and noise and screams
shattering of glass
Still I wonder, yes I wonder
Who dropped the brain
Heard the doctors cryin'
How they begged for more
Igor rushed together
Tryin' to keep calm
Still the brain is oozing
Oozing on the floor
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who dropped the brain
I wanna know, baby I wanna know
(better now? yes, but I COULD use one of M&M's martininininis. OK, maybe two or four...)

Some coruscant legal minds got a
spanking down in Tejas. Wonder if they are still offering courses on forum-shopping in law school.
