And with the right kind of sleep, a certain amount of senselessness
itself.

I don't recall any Conan story where he cut off somebody's face and kept
it. Dour or otherwise. At least, not by REH.
It might come in handy, though.

That would only be while your asleep. Once you woke up, you'd be a
sensing hero once again. But it's better than the alternative.

Yes, if it was a test, then a followup wouldn't matter much. Think of it
as a ping, if I ping a host and it's just a test, then I don't really
expect a reply, it is sure nice if I get one but it's not absolutely
neccessary. Now, if it isn't a test, but the real deal, then pinging a
host can have severe consequences (if it doesn't reply) - just imagine all
the packets that has been lost due to the fact that ping fails and people
start unplugging their network cables and rebooting their systems (I'm
thinking of those Windows users here) - those packets could have been
saved!

Sheesh, it's ping. It's not like it's guaranteed delivery or anything!

I think there is an island somewhere, where they are sent to. Or that
could just be misbehaving packets, I'm not sure.

No, they have to listen to Crazy Frog, over and over and over again. It

No, not at all. I'd also advise you to wait a few months, too, the sun

How can that be? Doesn't the Gulp Stream flow by there, or something?
I mean, the people in Florida and Mexico swim in it.

If you pour a glass of water into the ocean, then stir it around a bit
and scoop it up with the glass, some of the original molecules will
still be there.
This prolly explains why magnetic fish are so mixed up.
The Last Viking
If you take a drop of something, let's say Anthrax, and then fill up the
solar system with water. Stirr it for a while, then scoop a cup of it out
again. Then you have homeopathic medicine that works against Anthrax. At
least according to the homeopaths.
