I regret having committed myself -- with so little justification -- to posting different versions of "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" every day this week, but at this point it's just too late to back off.Today's incidental music, "Simon Smith and the Amazing Dancing Bear" from the album Sail Away appears courtesy of Randy Newman and Reprise Records.Today's strip

Hypothermia is a medical emergency that occurs when your body loses heat faster than it can produce heat, causing a dangerously low body temperature. Normal body temperature is around 98.6 F (37 C). Hypothermia (hi-poe-THUR-me-uh) occurs as your body temperature passes below 95 F (35 C).When your body temperature drops, your heart, nervous system and other organs can't work normally. Left untreated, hypothermia can eventually lead to complete failure of your heart and respiratory system, as well as hilarious physical comedy.Hypothermia is most often caused by prolonged exposure to cold weather or the mind of Jim Davis, or immersion in a cold body of water and/or pulped back-editions of newspapers running Garfield (or, in extreme cases, Gnorm Gnat). Primary treatments for hypothermia are methods to warm the body back to a normal temperature, and get it to stop reading Garfield all the time.I'd like to apologize for saying 'ad hoc' in this episode when I obviously meant 'post hoc'. I apologize for this and NOTHING ELSE.Today's strip
