Stephen Hawking is coming to Ottawa next summer? I’d better put in for my vacation time now so I can make it up there for our joint press conference to announce There Will Be Blood: Siegel vs. Hawking. Oh, yes, our zero-g deathmatch is still on. We ran into a few hitches booking the International Space Station, but then we got some funding from a couple venture capitalists who think that gimp gladiator matches in Earth orbit could be bigger than the World Series of Poker. Hawking is still demanding top billing, but I’m letting my agent deal with him. The dude’s such a diva.

It’s a bit frustrating I don’t know why you dislike Hawking. I’m really curious…
You aren’t jealous of his extraordinary talent for physics, no…it can’t be that reason.
The man is not a beauty, but his intelligence gives him some attractiveness. To women, at least.
I can (only) guess what you mean by: the dude is such a diva.
