Sometime before Halloween, I found a mask for sale. It had a familiar look.
David Hanson, who left the head of the $750,000 robot on an airliner, sued the airline. The case has now been dismissed.
Judge Andrew Guilford is having fun at the plaintiff's expense:
At best, Plaintiff’s theory is that, since the Head did not arrive at its destination, Defendants must have done something wrong. This is not evidence of a breach or material deviation. Defendant may have done everything as promised, only to fall victim to a headhunting thief or other skullduggery.See the full text of the decision for further puns.
The New York Times is reporting that the head of Philip K. Dick is still missing. Or rather, the head of the clever and convincing android duplicate of Philip K. Dick.
I was getting fond of that head, and I am sorry it is gone. Hope they find it.

Feb. 13th, 2006 04:41 pmAccording to New Scientist, the android duplicate of Philip K. Dick has vanished in transit.
Nobody has seen "Phil" for weeks now. There is speculation that he has escaped.
We know that Phil has appeared at events publicizing the forthcoming film version of A Scanner Darkly. Which opens 31 March.
Does this smell like a publicity stunt to you?
