Are these the same folks that made the Emotional Vampire Robot? You know, the one that will just suck and suck at your emotional well-being until you're a shivering ball of humanity stuck watching reruns of Night Rider at 2 a.m. on a Friday night. Because I've been looking for that robot to fill that hole in my life for a entire year.

See, now you opened up a pandora's box of comments.

Dudette, I don't need no stinking umbrella. I wear my Letterman-approved suit of sponges. I get a workout with all that water weight and underneath I stay dry.

Bless that Japanese and late night TV ingenuity.

And yes, I am websurfing at 12:50 a.m.--you think I got a life or something?
