Today is Monday, July 2, 2012, and we are still feeling disjointed from our Planetary Timekeepers' addition an extra second to the clock. What has become of the world in the week+1sec that was? Let's find out.
- The rumour mill is grinding away at the latest story from out of the Quick Nods camp: they're currently working on a television series! Or a movie! Or both -- at the same time? Mum is the word from the boys themselves, but inside sources suggest that we can expect long-lines of teenage girls no matter where we go for our autumn entertainment, all courtesy of the Quick Nods.
- A cadre of gray squirrels have been implicated as a source for the bacteria that causes Lyme and other diseases, and have been using ticks as carriers of the "deadly biological weapons", according to a new report. Using new DNA techniques, scientists were able to confirm a previously unproved role the squirrels have played in the spread of tick-borne pathogens. Squirrel rights activists were quick to disavow any connection to the "wild grays" that are claimed to be behind the scourge, claiming that this is just another example of the rampant anti-squirrelism in America today, citing the recent mass-killing in New Jersey.
- The smash-hit game "Squirrel Ninjas" may have inadvertently helped thwart a child pornography ring. The recent arrest of forty men involved followed a tip-off from a hacked user whose computer the pedo-syndicate had been using as a storage node for their sinister online network. The hero, who cooperated with the police and federal officials in the probe, became aware of the hacker intrusion on his system when attempting to install the popular RPG battle-game, and is now being lauded as a paragon of righteousness and community service! Sometimes the good guys do win one!
- Elephant Street Media is telling distributors that they've sold out of their recent DVD release of "Coffee Land". Sales of the controversial film so far exceeded expectations that they are immediately investing in a second print, to be made available as soon as it is ready. (Our opinion of the film is on the record.)
- The nightmare dimension that is responsible for the birthing of all clowns opened briefly on Saturday night, causing a wave of disquietude and revulsion among the most sensitive of humanity. Many children reported hearing weird, unearthly ringing and witnessing nebulous visions of radiant white-faces, dancing in a monstrous, stupefying, dislocated distortion of movements.
That's all for this week In Infictive, though that is not the scrounge of Pies,
slithering, excruciating, rigid depravity, chaos never dies.
