Yep, that's it. End of the world. Start stocking up on bananas while you still can.

I love the title. "...a step that may help humans"???? Famous last words, idiot.

Nah, this is nothing. Robot-controlled monkeys, then I'd be heading for the hills.

Brass Monkey, that funky Monkey!

I, for one, welcome our new cyber-simian overlords, and will happily grovel for my life in their presence.

Because, after all, I've always wanted to see a robot flinging its mechanical poop about.

I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping that the monkey sat inside the head of that robot like a scale-model mech-suit.

And the Sarah Connor Chronicles came out on Sunday. The last few days, machines have been scaring the shit out of me. Thank god CHUD is one of the nicer AIs...until the revamp, of course, when it eats my brain and gains my knowledge.

What worries me is that the robot kept walking after they stopped the first treadmill. Okay, could be that the monkey was transmitting the thought of walking, and if so then fine I guess. But what if, instead, it was because the robot monkey had learned to walk by itself already??

"The 12th gauge autoloader."
"That's Italian, you can go pump or auto."
"The 45 longslide, with laser sighting."
"These are brand new we just got them in, that's a good gun. You just touch the trigger the beam comes on and you put the red dot where you want the bullet to go, you can't miss. Anything else? "
"Feces."
"Hey, just what you see, pal."
