A fine way to give oneself a repetitive stress injury is to come up with something silly to do with your other hand and your feet whilst completing a tedious 2 hour clicky clicky assignment at work. In this case, this would be tap out the drum riff to "Bela Lugosi's Dead" with your left hand and foot while it is playing. No, I am not entirely sure what possessed me to do this, except that it seemed fun at the time.

Do not, I repeat, do not attemp this unless you are, of course, the drummer of Bauhaus. Also percussion seems to be to "Bela Lugosi's Dead" as cello/string bass is to Pachebel's "Canon in D," which is to say, repetitive and torturous at durations over four minutes. Of course, since the Canon is only five minutes long and Bela Lugosi's Dead clocks in at about three times that for the live version, clearly, Kevin Haskins has far more to complain about. And apparently calves of steel. I think I just gave myself a shin splint.
