No...perhaps some of us sometimes need to take a cold shower after watching the avatar for too long though.

Hey, if you're going to keep rolling your eyes at me, at least wear some goggles too so that they don't roll right out of your head.

<sudden cut to newsroom>

"Welcome to Mobile Read News Network. We interrupt your regular programs to bring you important breaking news. In a shock move today, President Fudd has just signed an emergency aid package aimed at stimulating and preserving the recently embattled avatar business. Initial reports indicate that nearly 3 billion dollars have been allocated to preserving this vital industry, a critical component for the United States of America to maintain leadership of the internet. The exact details of the package are currently unknown, but it is believed that some conditions over re-structung will be required to ensure both future profitability and what has been termed "jobs for the boys". It is also believed that this will mean that the government will obtain a stake of aproximately 40% of every single avatar produced.

The eligibility criteria are yet to be disclosed, but according to officials, any organisation that has succesfully produced more than three avatars will be able to apply for grants of up to $1000 per avatar produced during 2009.

We now return you to your regular programs."
