I just applied for a six million dollar grant to study whether a red shirt on Star Trek is more likely to die than a female that a Cartwright boy (Bonanza) falls in love with.

It has been weeks so I expect to be living off federal funds pretty soon, does that count?

Crumbs. Last I heard you were safe in a mental institution.

The red shirts and the Cartwright wives were about even in mortality rates. A Cartwright girlfriend had a better chance on surviving but not by much. Her survivability rate was greatly enhanced if another guy showed matrimonial interest in her.

I wouldn’t want to put the kibosh on your chances at that grant, so I won’t tell anyone else of my findings. ; )

That makes as much sense as a lot of these projects people get paid mega bucks for.

I guess if I did not have a conscious I would put in for one too.
