CC, those were some excellent episodes. Some of my other favorites are:
A. The one where a bus stops at a diner and one of the guests is an alien.
B. The one about it being really, really hot; however, there was a feverish twist at the end.
C. The one about playing pool. I love playing pool and it raises questions about the pursuit of excellence and its ultimate futility/price. One time at work, I was called into the meeting to be the "expert". I protested because surely someone knew more about the subject than I did. Unfortunately, I realized that there was no one else that knew as much as I knew. That frightened me a lot because I knew that I didn't really know all that much. Only at that moment, did I strive to actually be the expert; only then did I accept the responsibility and the burden. The burden of trust, the burden of responsibility to be right; the burden of staying on top. This episode really captures a portion of this idea.
