A little riddle to break the ice: Question: Why did the scientist take out his doorbell? Answer: Because he wanted to win the no-bell prize. (Kindly pretend to laugh at this. If I find it extremely funny, even in my current state, then so should you.) Now that you’re in an agreeable mood, I need you to do a few things for me. Allow me to point out that you are not in a position to turn me down, complain, and/or argue because I’m: Dead, and therefore cannot hear you. Always right. 100% going to haunt you if you fail me. I have a lot of free time right now, Callichka. Do not try me.
